I wish I could have found these birds at one time and could have claimed they were a family. At least, to me, they are a great example of what a family may be.

Florida Scrub-jay
Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Titusville, Florida, USA; FEB 2024

I’ve seen several varieties of Scrub-jays. On our visit to Merritt Island, I had planned to search for some. We found this one on a pine tree on a sandy trail among pines and low, scrubby brush. It was very cooperative.

Royal Tern
Everglades National Park, Florida, USA; MAR 2024

I love these birds. The long beaks, and white heads with the
“horseshoe” of black feathers around their head, they remind me of a bunch of
old men. It always brings a smile to my face and warms my heart.

Though the Snowy Egrets were the highlight of our trip to Merritt Island, there were a lot of other beautiful birds. Today I am featuring the herons.

Male Snowy Egrets in Breeding Plumage – Part 2

Male Snowy Egret in Breeding Plumage – P5

Last week, I shared a single image of a Snowy Egret in breeding plumage. That particular egret was at the pinnacle of his readiness to breed as was indicated by the bright red lore (the mask between his beak and eyes). However, male snowys grow and display their breeding plumage before they reach their peak readiness at which time their lore is still yellow. Though not as stunning, they are still beautiful.

We visited Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge recently where we found large numbers of Great Egrets and Snowy Egrets. The Snowy Egrets were displaying their breeding plumage but only one had a brilliant red Lore, the mask between the beak and eyes. I decided to share that one today. I’ll share the rest in a future post.

Two Dark-eyed Juncos

by Earthwatcher, posted in Atlanta, Bellevue, Bird Photography, bird watching, birding, Birds, Earthwatcher, GA, Georgia, nature, Nature Photography, Roswell, Uncategorized, Washington, Wildlife, Wildlife Photography

There are several subspecies of Dark-eyed Juncos: the Oregon, the Slate-gray, the Canadian Rocky Mountain, the White-winged, the Pink-sided, and the Gray-headed. I’ve only been fortunate enough to see two of them. They are a type of Sparrow. They all have black eyes and a pink bill.

When I visit the west coast, I see the Oregon sub-species. Here in Georgia and other eastern US locations, I see the Slate-gray. I’m always amazed at their beauty.
