Eastern Meadowlark Calling and Singing



The Backyard Birds Cuckoo Clock



Rare capture of an Eastern Meadowlark foraging for inspects on the ground and calling and singing. Such a beautiful bird with lots of personality. I was lucky to sneak up on this one without flushing it. You can hear another Meadowlark doing the same in the distance and they appear to be reacting to each other - probably a territory thing.

Limpkins




The Backyard Birds Cuckoo Clock
A group of Limpkin birds just being Limpkins. A classic Florida bird they mostly eat snails using their long beaks and specially adapted snail shell cleaning claws. This video shows the challenges of getting (or not getting) quality video shooting right into the morning sun - nearly impossible, but sometimes that's where the animals are.
