winged things & the moon


'incoming!!'  Yellow-rumped warblers in winter plumage

(i had no idea what these birds were. 
i was going nuts searching through my bird books and online.
a friend of mine e-mailed this picture to 
the Alachua County Audubon Society Pres. she ID'd it!)

the past couple of weeks i see the same Red-bellied woodpecker
tapping away every afternoon in the same spot, on the same tree.
at first i thought he was bug hunting.
now i realize he's making a nest.  his hidey-hole. literally.





looks like he's almost finished!

last weekend we did a one night getaway at 

and spotted a couple of 'winged things'...

Zebra Swallowtail

Little Blue Heron

from our campsite.
at first the moon was hidden behind the trees...


then...a clear shot of the (almost) full moon. 3.7.15.
