Birds, Words, Pics + TV
I’m very fortunate that I have a backyard that lots of birds love to visit because I love having them around.
One of my favorites came back last week: a Black-and-white Warbler. A lot of birds show off with beautiful colors, but this little one shows that black and white can be brilliant colors on their own.
The Black-and-white Warbler arrived with other warblers who have been visiting, including Yellow-throated Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers and Pine Warblers.
While they are year-round residents in Florida, I usually only see Green Herons in summer and fall during my birding trips.
These colorful little warblers are here for breeding season. In recent days I have heard them around my house and at the Wetlands, but I had not been able to spot one, let alone photograph one.
This visit was going to be much later than my usual early morning trips to LAWD. I wasn’t sure what I might find there at mid-morning.
