I emailed a guy about his site, and he suggested that using the date for a title isn’t as good as using a topic. so I’m changing that approach.
Another near-perfect weather day. It was in the 60s when I awoke, and the low 70s by the time I got to Terrapin Nature Park. It started out well, slowed down and picked up at the end of my 3-4 hour stay.
Two Snowy Egrets were fishing in the marsh pond. This is as close as I’ve ever gotten to them.
This House Wren was a nice surprise as I haven’t seen many.
I didn’t realize this was a Northern Flicker until I uploaded it from the camera. He’s only showing his back, but it’s colorful enough to make a decent picture.
Cardinals are so common I often pass them by. but I liked the colors on this female.
I saw a Rose Breasted Grosbeak in the Spring, but I didn’t recognize this bird, which is probably a first winter male.
The Red Eyed Vireo is very attractive, and frequently elusive. Lately, they have been posing nicely for me.
This Osprey will be heading South very soon.
I see Mockingbirds everywhere I go, but they are a treat to photograph.
I count 516 Starlings. What about you?
The Monarchs are migrating.
This may be a Tennessee Warbler. I’m checking on it.
I haven’t found an ID yet.
This is a Blue Headed Vireo and I’ve never seen one before.
This slightly out of focus bird is a Prairie Warbler.
