the Birds
I’ve been feeling like I’m behind on updating this blog. I have dozens of photos and videos that I want to share, but time seems to be eluding me. I have a handful of topics to share like the day that a “committee” of… Continue Reading “the Birds”
Natural Model
This Spring has been a bit disappointing from a weather perspective. There have been many cold and overcast days which make for a less than perfect day to explore the flora and fauna around our property. Mostly, the cloudy skies reduce the chance for… Continue Reading “Natural Model”
Takin’ A Little Rest
I looked down and there she was – this precious, mama rabbit. She was panting. I don’t know if she had been running, or she was just reacting to the warm weather. I suspect she was aware of me – wondering what my next… Continue Reading “Takin’ A Little Rest”
Ready To Fly
The little Tree Swallow chicks in Box #14 seem almost ready to take flight. When I checked on them yesterday, I could tell a difference from the photos I took on May 23, just three days earlier. They develop so quickly.
Watch & Learn
This baby House Finch (the noisy one) seems to be demanding that his father (the red one) feed him. Rather than give into the little one’s expectations, it appears that the father and mother (which shows up a bit later) are teaching the fledgling… Continue Reading “Watch & Learn”

You’ve Got A Little Sumthin’ on Your Chin
So, I came upon this today. I saw a Barn Swallow perched on a plant hanger near my front porch. I thought; he looks so calm and relaxed, maybe he’ll stay put for a photo. Then, I notice the mud on his face. Clearly… Continue Reading “You’ve Got A Little Sumthin’ on Your Chin”
Mr. Bob-WhITE
I was surprised when, after uploading the photos below to a Facebook Birder’s groups, I received so many comments and “likes.” Many folks responded by saying they had not seen this species around in years! I looked up Northern Bobwhite at Allaboutbirds.com and saw… Continue Reading “Mr. Bob-WhITE”
Serious About Citrus
The Northern Mockingbird is a species that spends the winter here, and sticks around all summer to raise their young. They are a bird with a lot of character. During the deep freeze in February, they came up to the patio to drink from… Continue Reading “Serious About Citrus”
