Male and female mallard ducks at Busch Wildlife.
Just a suet feeder in the shape of a bell.
Lake 33 at Busch Wildlife Conservation Area is naturally shallow making it a great place to find shorebirds. A lack of rain in the area caused the lake to dry up on the shallow end leaving mud behind, but exposed the muscles that Limpkins like to feed on.
The first cool mornings at the end of a hot summer feels as refreshing as the first warm spring days after a cold, hard winter.
Word got around that there were a couple of Limpkins hanging out at Busch Wildlife. It’s kind of a big deal since Limpkins, being a tropical wetlands bird, are not typically seen north of Florida. It was a great Labor Day morning.
I don’t usually take photos of the mourning dove’s around the house (I can hear them pretty much all of the time).
Decided to setup the tripod on the patio to capture the hummingbirds as they zoom in and out from the feeder.
Just some random shots from Mark Twain Lake.
Summertime camping trip to Mark Twain Lake. Rained a lot, but eventually made it out onto the lake. There were a lot of Blue Herons out doing there thing and I always take the opportunity to photograph one of my favorite birds.
