Incoming … a skein of snow geese serenaded us as they took off and soared above us.

The sweetness of spring birdsong and bright green leaves is not far off.

Unseen birds, including a Carolina Wren and an Eastern Towhee, serenaded us on this May 2020 escape into nature where we were surrounded by bright green leaves on trees, bushes and vines, with a rustic grayish-brown fence in the lower right side of the video.

Not ideal birding weather, but a perfect day to capture some uncanny images.

Skyward focus. Whatever this Great Blue Heron spied was way more interesting than the birders and hikers passing by on the bridge.

Took a bit of searching and climbing but well worth the effort to find a reclusive American Bittern.

Happy #LeapYear! Such a fun surprise to see a leaping dolphin during an evening beach walk on a late summer day three years ago.

Cropped photo of a dolphin leaping out of the ocean curving slightly to the right with a small red buoy in the background.

#ThrowbackThursday to August 2022 when my husband and I had the thrill of adding a Roseate Spoonbill to our lifter list. This gorgeous juvenile remains my all-time favorite sighting.

This juvenile Red-headed Woodpecker is one of my favorite winter sightings this year. Need to plan a return trip to the nature center to see how much more crimson its head is now.

Current mood as I report the annoying ongoing spam mucking up my Mastodon account. My caw vacillates between a shriek and a growl punctuated by an occasional expletive.

Bluebird beauty. This lovely lady was a willing model in between quick ground forages on an unusually warm January day.
