Isn’t She Lovely

I saw this female Northern Cardinal near the Great Miami River one day this past week. There was several males too, but as hard as I tried, I could not capture a photo of any of them.

Owning It

In past years we have seen Great Blue Herons at this spot (at Big Woods) frequently. It has been a long time since the saw one here. It was great to see. She clearly owns this spot.

She Is Unique

We have seen a few more female Red-winged Blackbirds this week. This is one of the more interesting and detailed photos I have taken of a female red-wing. While the females do not have the bright colors of the males, they certainly have some unique markings.

Lost Swans?

This field is not where I expected to see a Trumpeter Swan. There was actually two of them. Maybe they were avoiding the high water levels in the river.

Lone Teal

This is not the first Blue-winged Teal I have seen this spring, but it is the first time I have been able to capture a photo of one. This male was alone on this small pond.
