A hot days work…

Categories: Photo-Journal •June 27, 2008
Oh my and it was hot! 115 degree F (46 C) in my car on my return. Yuk!! Aside from that however it was gorgeous. Hundreds of young birds of all sorts arranged for a cacophony of noise from all corners - and all pretty much said the same.
FEED ME !!
Spoken in Boat Tailed Grackle 
, Woodstork , Cattle Egret , Snowy Egret , Tri-colored Heron , Little Blue Heron , Great White Egret and Common Moorhen dialect. And these youngsters truly are bringing their parents to the brink of nervous breakdowns. They are aggressive - too much so, for their parents to stay a second longer than the feeding process will take. Elsewhere were beautiful Monarchs in droves around the Butterfly bushes. American Alligator and American Crocodile are very active and their eggs have been laid, mothers guarding the nests 24/7. But you better look for yourself!

Fantastic day’s work/leisure! I didn’t realise until now how different your Great Blue Herons are from our two most common Herons. My favourite is the Snowy Egret in Flight! I could rave on about how excellent all these photographs are but dinner is almost ready and I’m starving. FEED ME!

I love this post - what a cool way to do it! Thanks.
BTW - no big camera when I take my very excited pooch for a walk - she wants to run and cavort - and bark at deer!

Klaus: What an interesting set of photos, you certainly capture a lot.
I mentioned you in a post today and could you check out some names, I will change it with your help. I thought I had a Snowy Egret and now am not sure.

The ‘Needs’ and the ‘Stressed Out’ are my favorites! So nice though, all of them. I don’t usually do this…but do you go to the Canon DPR forum? This guy took the most unbelievable pictures and they are not photoshopped. I know you will be glad to see them if you haven’t already. Check it out:

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Where do I start? The iguana- beautiful coloring! What was that big thing in the beak of that bird!!? Eeewww! LOL! That Little Cattle Egret is something else. And I love, love, love the slight blur wings of the egret in flight. Make it look like landing after breaking the sound barrier.
You are awesome!!

Wonderful slide show! I love the Great White Heron, the little Cattle Egret stretch, Snowy Egret, and Success in particular, but they are all great!
