A helpful trick to keep squirrels off your bird feeders: employ the use of an adopted pup who will probably never catch a squirrel but loves to try.
The last photo makes me think the female cardinal is starting to figure out there’s a camera in the bird feeder.
A candidate for the worst birder pic. You may not believe it but there were two red bellied woodpeckers on this Hong Kong orchid. It was lovely to see in person but given this photo, you’ll just have to trust me.
Views from a lovely, if a bit windy, day at the Orlando wetlands park yesterday.
An incredible sighting: a crested caracara vying for roadkill with a few black vultures, alongside Roseland Road in Sebastian.
This was my first time seeing the caracara and since it was just on the side of the road, we did a u-turn to come back and get some more drive by photos. Such a cool experience!
It wouldn’t be a good morning without a visit from the pair of cardinals at the bird buddy. There’s a bit of a pause after the male leaves before the female shows up today.
A short visit from the crowd favorite: a common grackle!
