It's time to slow down and admire some pretty things. Today: a snapping turtle head
I know many people won't consider this pretty, but I do. Snapping turtles are fierce (you don't want to get close), multi-color, long-lived creatures with beautiful eyes.
KarenJust because you don't see them doesn't mean they are not there, like this little Wilson's Snipe. #huntleymeadows #birding
Ha! Our eBird Reviewer saved me from embarrassment! The black duck is actually a melanistic Mallard (domestic type) and has no relation with the American Black Duck. Wonder what her story was...escaped from a foie gras farm? Was a pet? Anyway, she's had babies over the years (mostly onesie twosies) and every year I have to relearn that she's just a Mallard. #birding #huntleymeadows
Finally saw the Green Heron. It didn't seem all that pleased with all the attention, but it's only been back for a week...just wait until its friends show up. #birding #huntleymeadows
Rain is to start at sunrise, so no birding today. Here are a few shots from last Sunday. #birding #huntleymeadows
