    Bird Weekly – Photo Challenge – Domesticated Birds

    I think everyone has seen a seagull at some point in their lives. They are not just a coastal species, they are inland as well. Generally, they don’t venture out to sea, except the kittiwakes. They are closely related to the terns and distantly related to auks, skimmers and other waders. They range is size…

    Bird Weekly Round-Up – Week #12

    I think we all take Seagulls for granted because they are everywhere. From the seaside to the landfills. Along the beaches and in the Walmart parking lot. They are opportunistic birds! We had a wonderful array of gulls in this week’s challenge including several I have never seen before.

    Sunday Stills – Winter Snow – nonexistent

    Since I live in Florida, Winter and Snow are not in my vocabulary. In Jacksonville, it will get chilly and we will even have freezing temperatures on some nights from January-March.

    Bird Weekly Round-Up – Week #11

    I have to make mention of one of the coolest things this week and that is the Snowy Owl. The bird in my photo and in Beth’s photo is the same bird. I mean…the exact same bird. Mine taken in Jacksonville and her’s taken in Georgia at the end of 2013, beginning of 2014. We…

    FOTD – Night Blooming Cereus

    It has been 2 years since we have seen a flower, but we haven’t stayed up all night to wait for one either. This one was still in full bloom by the morning 2 years ago, making it the last flower we have seen from this plant. Rare capture!
