Love it!

I think that's right. Thanks!

Just when I think I've taken my last Oriole pic (there have been sooo many this year), I encounter this Baltimore Oriole feasting on a Shagbark Hickory flower. I couldn't resist😀

I thought I heard a Warbling Vireo when I got to the preserve, but Merlin says this is a Philadelphia. Thoughts?

A little Ovenbird crossed my path, on my morning walk through the woods. The Ovenbird is actually a warbler and is in the family of wood warblers. It's name is a reference to the bird's nest, a domed structure that resembles an oven

Green Heron flew in and perched over the lagoon long enough for a few clicks.

Cool capture!

Yes!!!

I always scrutinize food labels. we should know what we put in our bodies.

Tragic.

What's not to love about the Baltimore Oriole?
