Yes of course there really is such a bird as a Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker and I usually only see them in the Backyard woods in winter. A mature female spends an unusual amount of time posing for us on a long leaf pine tree while a juvenile sapsucker visits the Backyard fence looking for ants. They are actually quite stunning birds as are the Red Bellies and Northern Flickers which are of similar size.

Thanks to generous donations last season we are ready to go with two new GOLBONG Green-Backyard Nest Box Cameras in the Screech Owl and Woodpecker nest boxes this season. Very high quality night and day and easy to install - they come in wired power over ethernet cable variety which I will use to broadcast live later this winter and a WiFi version - both linked below. More to come on these cameras as we wait for the owls to start their courtship in earnest. In the meantime Mr Woodpecker has started to roost in his box.

Florida Winter Backyard Bird selection - a little slice of Backyard life. Blue Jays, Miss cardinal, Common Grackles and little Painted Buntings seem to be getting along pretty well this afternoon.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year from the Backyard! The creatures don't celebrate holidays, but they are always up for a party. This year the Painted Buntings party was held in a separate room for obvious reasons. As usual the decorations got trashed. Enjoy!

Mourning Dove stands up to the big, aggressive and scary-looking Grackles and holds the feeder. Eventually the two grackles give up. Often considered one of the meekest song birds at the feeder I have found just the opposite in the Backyard!

The call of the Endangered male Snail Kite on the St. John's River in central Florida is rather low-key but unique for a raptor. This male kite patiently waits to spot an Apple Snail moving on aquatic vegetation and then snatches it and expertly remove the tasty morsel with its uniquely adapted claws and beak. Escargot for breakfast it doesn't get any better than this!

Endangered male Snail Kite (a type of Hawk) on the St. John's River in central Florida flying low over the marsh using its keen eyesight to spot large Apple Snails to grab. A critically Endangered species all Florida Snail Kites are precious as their habitat continues to be destroyed. They are now only found in central and southern Florida. They have adapted an extreme hooked beak and and extra long talon that are used to remove apple snails from their shells - their only food source. To find the snails they need shallow clear open water and then they grab them with their talons. There was a Great Blue Heron standing right next to me the whole time I was filming and when the kite was done with his air show I looked at the heron and he looked at me like - wow that was impressive!

Juvenile Red Squirrel has the most luxurious and long tail for such a little thing. Just out of the nest box it is scared a bit by the big ol' Blue Jay, but quickly gets used to it.

Caw-Caw-Caw.... A small family of American Crows that hangs Backyard north having an extended conversation - although similar there are significant differences in each individual call.

Honey Bee hive update from the squirrel nest box. Honeybees are fascinating to watch up close where you can see all the individuals. Kind of addicting really! The bees have built an impressive hive that is now extending well outside of the nest box and the bees have settle into their routine. If you watch closely you can see the different roles that the bees fill. Watch for one one the edge of the comb that appears to be directing traffic.
