After several slow days I decided to go back to Artemesia and see if my luck continued. It wasn’t as good, but it was an improvement over my recent forays.
The male Yellow Warbler has completed the nest and is now feeding his mate, who appears to be brooding the eggs.
This brightly colored Turtle seems to be used to people passing by.
Tree Swallows and Barn Swallows fill the air above the lake.
This Pied Billed Grebe is in breeding plumage.
I don’t often see Barn Swallows at rest.
Cedar Waxwings roam the park constantly.
I’m more used to seeing a Spotted Sandpiper in a marsh than at a lake.
These Canada Goose goslings are completely unafraid of humans.
This Mallard was taking her ducklings out to breakfast.
There are many Orchard Orioles at the lake.
I may have seen an oriole once in my life.
They are quite plentiful in our area. Try Wooton or Greenbury Point.
These are so good. You have a real talent.
