Nest box Update! The sound of the Eastern Screech Owl couple Luna and Odie calling in and outside the nest box last night. They are going through their final stages of courtship and eggs should start being lain at least by late next week, Nobody was watching for hours at a time during this quiet period so I will restart the live feed later next week. The system has had a thorough test out the last few days. Obviously the microphones are working well the sound of the screech owls is amazing. So stay tuned!

White Eyed Vireo
This is the first white-eyed vireo I've captured on film. A small and secretive bird of shrubby areas of the eastern and southern United States, the White-eyed Vireo is a full-time resident of the Florida peninsula, but is more often heard than seen. They prefer heavy cover not unlike the Painted Buntings.

Birds Versus Rats - Rats Exploiting Birds?
This exasperating battle of wills between a tiny cotton rat and the resident Backyard Grackles over a little bit of spilled seed on the forest floor is humorous and entertaining on one level, neither of them can harm each other, but there is more going on here than meets the eye. To the Grackles the little rat is a pest, but to the rat the Grackles are life savers.
BIRDS CAN BE IMPORTANT TO RATS

Scrub Jays (Corvids) Swallowing Stones
The Florida Scrub Jay is a threatened member of the corvid family primarily due to habitat loss and is the only bird endemic to Florida. They are very gregarious and family orientated birds, even more so than their cousins the Blue Jays. Here a group of 4 to 6 of them are picking little stones just the right size from a gravel trail in the scrub to hold in their crops for grinding up food to aid digestion.
Crows and Ravens (big corvids) of course swallow much bigger stones see them at: https://youtu.be/yqs5xCD7-oE

They are a little Gothic, but Black Vultures are admirable under-appreciated birds - they mate for life, are incredibly dedicated and attentive to each other and their young, and provide a valuable civic service by cleaning up carrion. They are again nesting in the Backyard this year this is their story.

Blue Jays Plant More Trees Than Squirrels
I captured some nice close-up footage of Blue Jays burying or “caching” acorns well away from the backyard oaks and it prompted me to investigate further and make this mini-documentary in appreciation.
Often we tend to think of squirrels as the planter of forests and they do plant their fair share of trees, but seldom far from their territories and certainly not as far and as fast as Blue Jays can.

Otter Scent Marking Territory
River Otters are Highly social animals that communicate with other members of their species as they travel through vigorous scent-marking by vigorously scratching, rubbing, and rolling on the ground matting down vegetation and scraping up absorbent grass clumps and squirting urine, and defecating.
