The Purple Gallinule is always one of my favorite birds and their migration is almost over here . |
The Herons are everywhere right now. |
AN Egret moving on |
I just love their yellow feet |
Red wing Black birds are everywhere right now |
The Refuge boat ramp under water and the birds are loving the peace and quiet. |
A Killdeer sitting her nest by the RV pads |
One of the Herons hanging out on a water control structure |
A Red wing looking for love |
A Laughing Gull warming his feet |
Two Night Hawks resting on a dead tree out by the VIS |
Roseate Spoonbills working the Rice fields |
Just so beautiful |
What a face, we were working in the same area and we made him a little angry. |
Just making a comment as she was with the big guy. |
A new sign goes up to keep those who don't know what a do not enter sigh means . |
And there are some who say they didn't see it |
A Dickcissel singing his song |
A Raccoon hunting by the roadside |
One of the many rabbits that keep our cats entertained by the RV pads |
An Otter crosses the road in front of us at the VIS |
Just awesome |
A Ibis hunting in the Pond |
Some Cactus in Bloom |
Ruddy Turnstones loving the flooded parking areas in the Refuge by East Galveston Bay |
Lotus Flowers starting to bloom in Shoveler Pond |
Grass cutting becomes a mobile feast for the Cattle Egrets |
An Ibis gathering nesting material |
A Redfaced vulture drying his wings |
The water plants are all in bloom |
Just working the bait fish up and down the bayou |
A Cattle Egret with nesting material |
So happy |
Thousands of Lotus Blossoms ready to burst |
A angry Red Ear, I moved it off the road |
Our RV pad Raccoon digging up the bird seed dropped from our feeder |
A shore bird moving in the flood waters |
A Crested Cara Cara ready to hunt |
There are thousands of Dragon Flies here |
The warmer it gets here the more Gators are moving about |
An Ibis in flight, the feather colors are just beautiful |
