Blog 351: Red-Headed, Pied-Billed, and Yellow-Rumped Ducks
The swimming and feeding of the hundreds of ducks at Lighthouse Pond resonate a melody like a waterfall in motion. Squat on the bank, plop down on a chair, and the mesmerizing sound and the soothing spectacle will melt your stress like butter in a warm pan.
Here are lesser scaups, a greater scaup, a pair of American wigeons, and a redhead in the swim.
Birds of Prey
This pair of eagles may possibly be arguing over nest duty (it is that time of year), and a red-shouldered hawk probably scouting out breakfast.
Pelicans
This is a squad of white pelicans floating for fun and a snow goose feeding by a yawning white pelican.
Yellow-Rumped Warblers
Check out these two yellow-rumped warblers looking marvelous.
More Birds
In order, here is an American bittern in full action, a belted kingfisher, a mockingbird, a graceful pied-billed grebe, a rock pigeon, and two wood storks in flight.
Tired of Birds?
Here is a young raccoon just recovering from falling out of a tree, and a splendid Lake Apopka sunset signaling good night.
See you next time.
