Birds, Words, Pics + TV
I had to go to Osceola County on Wednesday evening for a work assignment. While driving around I came across the home of a Bald Eagle family – and lucky for me, the whole family was home.
The parents took turns staying by the nest or flying down to get some food for the youngster. The eaglet didn’t seem too happy when the parents would fly back.
I wasn’t expecting to see or photograph any Bald Eagles on this trip, but with birding you have to expect the unexpected.
There have been flamingos in the Indian River before, but it is pretty rare. I got up very early on a Saturday morning to try to get some pictures of them.
Whooping Cranes are among the largest birds in North America, and these endangered birds are also among the rarest on the continent.
Whenever I hear “Prairie Warbler,” I think of Little House on the Prairie and the Midwest. But this little yellow and black bird is a year-round Florida resident.
