Birds, Words, Pics + TV
One of the things I love about birding is the cycle that birds follow.
Last April I photographed a male Indigo Bunting and a female Painted Bunting at Orlando Wetlands. It’s April again, and guess who’s back at the wetlands?
During a pair of sunset visits, I saw a male Indigo Bunting and a female Painted Bunting in the same location where I photographed them last year. Pretty amazing.
There was a bit of a difference. Last year I photographed them in the morning, and this year it was at sunset.
The Barn Swallows at Lake Apopka usually hang out around a bridge where they nest. Sometimes they might sit on a railing or a nearby bush.
A female Ruby-throated hummingbird had been reported at the Orlando Wetlands, but she kept me waiting for awhile before she showed up.
I spent a hot, humid morning at the Orlando Wetlands on Saturday, July 29, and I was surprised by the number of birds that I saw.
