Woody's Vea La Luz 2023

[cwgrizz]

Lorraine (my primary bird spotter, "life coach", and wife) spotted a flock of Bohemian Waxwings in our neighborhood and I grabbed my camera. As is usual with these birds, I got 3-4 minutes before they all flew away. They LOVE crab apples.View attachment 388772View attachment 388773View attachment 388774View attachment 388775

We got back from Florida late last might, and I have a lot of pictures to sort through, but I thought I'd post this one today. Unfortunately this big gator never got out of the water so we could view him fully, but locals told us that he was a huge one, probably around 12 feet.

Fish heads, fish heads, yummy yummy fish heads. People were cleaning their fish at a station on the shore and tossing heads, tails and entrails to the waiting bird population. This Wood Stork got first pick of whatever she/he wanted.
