Circle B Bar Reserve: 6-8-18




Female Anhinga






Black-bellied Whistling Duck





These ducks tend to nest in tree cavities.

Tricolored Heron





Male Boat-tailed Grackle





Young Boat-tailed Grackles





Scratch that itch!





Red-shouldered Hawk





By the time they are 5 days old, nestling Red-shouldered Hawks can shoot their feces over the edge of their nest so bird poop on the ground is a sign of an active nest.






Notice how light the breast is on our Florida subspecies



as compared with the much darker color on the breasts of west coast birds
