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.
I was getting ready to photograph some Mallards, when an adult male Bald Eagle swooped in to do some hunting. Suddenly, a second Bald Eagle appeared. Then the battle started.
This has to be the rarest bird I have ever photographed, so why not see some more pictures of this endangered species.
My February included trips to Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive, Orlando Wetlands, Joe Overstreet Road in Osceola County and Merritt Island Wildlife Drive.
