Today, I am sharing Carolina Chickadee photos, plus a Trumpet Vine Sphinx moth that was on the driftwood where the chickadee landed two days ago in Arkansas.
The Pine Warblers hadn't been around in a while, but they have come back, so I was excited and delighted to take immature Pine Warbler photos three days ago.
After sharing a photo of me photographing a cicada shell on a tree yesterday, I thought I'd share photos of a Fall Southeastern Dusk-singing Cicada today.
This cicada shell on a pine tree was photographed by little old me in Arkansas yesterday. The photo of me taking this image is by my dear friend, Steve Creek.
Yesterday, when I shared the pale young Raccoon, I mentioned that I also photographed some butterflies at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge. Here they are!
Seeing and photographing this unusual pale young Raccoon was one of the highlights of my morning at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge. The Raccoon was lovely.
It has been a while since I photographed a White-breasted Nuthatch. I did just that yesterday and thought that I would share it this morning. And why not?
Imagine you are a young Downy Woodpecker, just a couple of months old. You fly to a suet feeder to get food to eat and suddenly get hit by another woodpecker.
While at Mount Magazine State Park in Arkansas two days ago, I photographed a White-tailed Deer doe biting her own derrière, which made me laugh out loud.
It's about time for me to share a few Robber Fly images that were taken at the end of July while walking the side roads of Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge.
I never thought I'd see an American Robin nesting in August, but I have. August in Arkansas should be too hot for robins to be nesting now. I guess it’s not.
Today's theme is green on green! These two Green Tree Frog images show different individual tree frogs, but both were on vibrant green grasses at Sequoyah NWR.
Early yesterday morning, I had a handsome male Ruby-throated Hummingbird in my viewfinder. Suddenly, another hummingbird flew in, putting him on high alert.
This morning, I'm sharing two White Water Lily images I took last month at Charleston Lake Park in Franklin County, Arkansas. I love these pretty water lilies.
Because of cloudy then scorching hot weather, I didn't get out to photograph yesterday morning. But the day before, I focused on a Fox Squirrel eating acorns.
After I photographed the Ruby-throated Hummingbird I shared yesterday, I focused on a hatch year Red-bellied Woodpecker with some kind of prey in their bill.
I finally have male Ruby-throated Hummingbird photos that I am happy with. It's about time, isn't it? He isn't a lifer; I've photographed this species before.
Yesterday morning, the Eastern Bluebird in Steve Creek's third brood fledged. We sat for hours on his deck, waiting for the one chick to leave the nest box.
While I was at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge on Sunday, I took lifer Flag-tailed Spinyleg dragonfly images while walking a road with my friend Steve Creek.
When I was walking around Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge on Sunday, I stopped to photograph a foraging Great Blue Heron at Sally Jones Lake.
Yesterday morning, I had a marvelous time with a subadult Green Heron in my viewfinder at Dockery Slough on the Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge.
Let's hop right into the photos I am sharing today! I took Differential and Two-striped Grasshopper images while walking around Sequoyah NWR with Steve Creek.
There are wildflowers blooming now that I haven't seen since I left Florida in 2009. Purple Passionflower is one of those flowers, so I had to take some photos.
It's been a minute since I shared bird images. Today I am sharing Tufted Titmouse and Carolina Chickadee photos. Are they dark and moody, or are they low key?
Yesterday morning, I took my lifer Western Ribbon Snake photos at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge. These ribbon snakes are small, I almost missed spotting it!
Yesterday, there was some excitement at the refuge. Steve Creek and I photographed a Bobcat and Coyote showdown, and then we followed the Coyote.
I'm sticking with the green theme today. Earlier this morning, it was Green Heron images; now, it's itty bitty Green Tree Frog photos from Sequoyah NWR.
This morning, I'm sharing three Green Heron photos plus a short video that were taken at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma earlier this month.
I was excited to see and photograph a Northern Cottonmouth on a gravel road at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge last week. The snake was very cooperative.
