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.
It seemed too late in the summer for the Swallow-tailed Kite to be here and too early for the Yellow Warbler to arrive.
On our long weekend in St. Augustine earlier this month, I spent one morning at the Alligator Farm’s rookery area.
The spot was Mead Garden in Winter Park, a wonderful oasis in our urban area and a magnet for a surprising number of birds.
