Birds, Words, Pics + TV
I try to post my birding photos chronologically from my birding trips. But, well, things happen.
Like doing a special Swallow-tailed Kite trip that got priority postings, or going on a weeklong vacation and not posting anything. It’s stuff like that which throws off a schedule.
So, here’s a hodgepodge of photos from August trips to the UCF Arboretum, as well as Joe Overstreet Road and Three Lakes Wildlife Management Area in Osceola County.
It’s that time of year when little warblers seems to be almost everywhere in Central Florida.
The small part that I did see was impressive – a great pond with lots of wading birds and a rookery for egrets and other birds. An adult and juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron flew overhead, and a pair of Roseate Spoonbills were hanging around.
The Northern Shoveler isn’t just your average duck. He’s a bit two-faced.
