How to use this Page

Look who’s been out and about!

This pic was taken with the trail camera on the 13th of this month.

And here, he’s wandered into our backyard for a little shut eye the next morning.  I can’t help but wonder if his den is full of cubs and he was looking for a quiet place . . .

He stayed for quite awhile and made me late to work!  Hubby took over with the camera after I left.

I can’t wait to see what the trail camera picks up this week!

The trail camera snapped a couple great photos of the fox . . .

I’m going to try to use a higher resolution on it next week to get clearer photos.

This cutie looks very  healthy, doesn’t he?  With all the spring-time love in the air, I can’t help but wonder if we’ll get lucky and see some cubs.  It seems that March is the cubbing season, and the female relies on the male to bring her food.  This might be why I’ve only been seeing one fox in each photo.

In April, the cubs venture out for the first time.  So I believe I’ll leave the trail camera right where it is for the next few months, just in case. I’ll keep you posted on any new news!

While I was away in Florida, my eagles were busy!

Here’s a photo of their nest on February 7th.

And here is the nest this week!!What a difference!

So I’m pretty confident that our eagles will be using this nest this spring!  And with these 40 degree temps, I bet I’ll be taking pictures of a nesting eagle very shortly.

The big question is, will there be one eaglet . . . two . . . or another rare triplet set?

Time will tell, my friends.  Time will tell.

(For those of you who are new to my blog, I have triplet pictures from last year!

The picture book writer in me sees so very many storyline possibilities in this photo!

It was taken under the Sanibel Causeway, near sunset, while Dave and Ben were fishing. Dolphins swam just a couple hundred yards away.

This week’s pic is from sunny Florida . ..

This osprey was quite happy with his lunch of fish . . .

Everywhere we go this week, we see osprey nests. Dave and I both agree there’s more than ever before.  Several people have stopped to ask me if they’re eagles (I think it’s the camera, that makes them do this) and I have to explain they are not.  I may not be well versed in birding, but I do know an eagle when I see one!

The eaglet eyes the oriole . . . .

Hey!  How you doin’?
