Day started well spending time with the Grand gurlz on the porch. Mercedes looked out at the pond and exclaimed, "What is THAT?!!" The Yellow-crowned Night Heron was in the dead tree close to our side of the pond, and provided us with some entertaining moves.
But first, spied this Blue-winged Teal on the pond just before the big rains started this weekend.
Here is the big guy in his standard position; one leg down.
Then he started to rise up. I'm thinking he's gonna fly, or sneeze!
Up.
And lets out a little hoot.
Then slams it down and sends the feathers in quite an array.
I'm thinkin' he was tryin' to impress a skirt!
Ruby-throated real real close to the end of the porch.
And the Ruby-throated female wanting to get at that feeder.
