Weird weather continues to plague us, wind storms, late freezes, heavy rain, thunder storms, and in the mountains, snow! So anything goes but my favorite weather has been scarce, Warm and Sunny! ;o) I took these photo on Sunday when it was sunny but COLD...
Red Bellied Woodpecker
Tuesday I headed over to Lee State Park, because more rain is on the way so I went to see if I could find some more Warblers...
the Black and White Warbler...
In Winter this warbler migrates to Mexico, Central America and the Northwest areas of South America Along with Cuba and the Islands....some winter in Florida and the Gulf Coast of the USA. But they Nest Here and the oldest one recorded was over 11 yrs old.
How many turtles on one perch?
A Red Headed Woodpecker hiding behind some Spanish Moss...
This tiny turtle is about the size of Silver Dollar...A Wood Turtle?
The Northern Parula is back...they over winter in Central American and Cuba! They Breed Here!
I also saw the White Eyed and Blue Headed Vireo's almost got shots of them..
Peek-a-boo
along with Yellow Throated Warbler.
the Hermit Thrush allowed a photo of all 3 sides of him...they breed mostly up in the Canadian Provinces.
And A bird I see daily is the female Northern Cardinal She will be laying her eggs soon...they live here year round.
I had a quick snack lunch...then headed to the boardwalk...
Before I knew it the sky had clouded over....
So time to head home....
And this has to be the worst wildlife photo ever taken, but can you just make out in the blurry background the shape of a Bob Cat?
It crossed the road quickly and then slinked into the deep brush by the time I had my camera up it was pretty well hidden.
Since the time change my day is almost over before it gets going....It's gonna take me some time to catch up with the clock...Here is a new plant based breakfast "sausage" Im trying. Its the Beyond Meat brand, and I really like it as well as their veggie burger, It was pretty good AND the packaging is perfect, Cardboard!!
I was able to find a lot of early Warblers, I'd like to find more but it's tough they are most always UP high in the tree tops...thus the title of this blog.
Please keep our friend Dave in you thoughts as he is facing some health issues...we want you back in our circle Dave so our thoughts of well wishes are with you!
PEACE
Every day is a new Adventure.
