The Snowy Egrets have really liked the low water levels in a couple of the ponds I frequent. Lots of easy prey for them. I imagine they are leaving for the South any day now.

All summer long this silly Osprey kept collecting branches, then he would fly to a power pole and put them there, as if trying to build a nest. There was no place for the branches to rest, so they fell to the ground most of the time. He kept doing this well past the time that an Osprey would try to nest or lay eggs. Maybe he was a youngster who was just practicing, I dunno'.I felt sorry for him, and admired his tenacity at the same time. :)
