I love this quote from author Jonathan Rosen’s wonderful book, Life of the Skies . . .!
“Everyone is a birdwatcher, but there are two kinds of birdwatchers: those who know what they are and those who haven’t realized it yet.”
Great Blue Heron
Purple Gallinule
Northern Mockingbird
Tri-colored Heron
Wood Stork
Palm Warbler
Great info nice pics! Thanks BJ!
Thanks for your visit and your comments, Berny!
All wonderful shots but I particularly like the wood stork!
Thanks a lot, Belinda… funny, I almost left out the Wood Stork b/c I wasn’t sure he ‘fit’ ☺️
As always, your photos are excellent Carol! 🙂
Thanks so much for your kind comment, HJ!
These are great! Love the wood stork!
Me too ☺️. I think this one was a mid-size juvenile.
I agree. I them a lot!
And which kind are you? ❤️
Hmmm… good question! Just can’t help myself I guess. ☀️
Hmmm… good question, Yaffa!
Roger Tory Peterson had some thoughts about this in an article from the 1980s:
