Summer and Bloggin

Not good for me.

I like to blog in the winter when it is cold and Ican’t be outside. Watch for more posts as the weather gets colder!

Skywatch Friday

Sunrise at Wakodahatchee

We started our day last day in Forida at Wakodahatchee, a haven for purple gallinules.  There was a perfect sunrise for Skywatch Friday.

Savage’s Ditch Snowy Owl

I received an e-mail from Michael O’Brien today that contained the following photos of a snowy owl. He saw the bird at  the Savage’s ditch dune crossing north of the Indian River inlet, on his way home from participating in his home state of Maryland’s CBCs.

I am delighted we can add this bird as a count week species for the Rehoboth CBC. Which by the way had a lincoln’s sparrow, brown pelican and the black bellied whistling duck at silver lake along with all the regular suspects for a final total of of 136 species.  I will be going after the bird in the morning…wish me luck.
