Since I have flipped the calendar page over to August - I've noticed quite a bit of change in our bird population....and that is a good thing. The shorebirds are arriving regularly and some of the migrants are popping up in different places. A visit to the Bailey Tract brought some nice surprises.
 |
| More activities was taking place in the trees - birds I hadn't seen for several months.... |
 |
| and ducks too!! A flock of Blue-winged Teal took flight from the Mangrove pond. |
 |
| The Common Gallinule are back too after being absent for a bit.. |
 |
| A young Mockingbird venturing out and testing his wings of freedom. |
 |
| Wildflowers were abundant and very happy with all the rain that we've had lately. |
 |
| A Green Heron fixed on his next meal. |
 |
| Oh, what a nice surprise!! An Orchard Oriole! |
 |
| And an Eastern Kingbird! Migration is starting to warm up nicely and I'm ready. My E-bird list for today. |
