  17. Swallow-tailed Kite

    Swallow-tailed Kite

    Over my yard, late in the evening and I was fortunate to have enough light. These guys are frequent visitors from early spring to late fall, and I never tire of watching them soar overhead. From time to time, one will swoop down and snag a lizard from one of out tall trees.

    Mississippi Kite

    Flying over my yard. I like the way the evening sun lit him up.

    I caught this guy diving in a lake. Thunderstorms were building, and I think it added a nice touch to the image.
  20. Swainson's Thrush

    Swainson's Thrush

    This is my first Swainson's Thrush. I was photographing American Redstarts, Black & White Warblers and Tufted Titmice that had swarmed in and were feeding in our Live Oak (we have a beautiful old Live Oak). He flew out from the under brush and gave me a brief chance for a shot or two.
  21. Northern Cardinal - female

    Northern Cardinal - female

    This little lady landed just feet above my head while I was photographing an immature Brown Thrasher. I guess she thought she was being left out of the action. My camera makes a soft chirp when it acquires focus, and that's what she is reacting to.
  22. Brown Thrasher - immature

    Brown Thrasher - immature

    There were at least 3 of these in the underbrush and they were making a chirping sound I have never heard, in fact, I thought I was zeroing in on a new bird. I waited them out and finally this one came out into the open.
  23. Cape May Warbler

    Cape May Warbler

    We don't see to many of these little Warblers in the yard so we were shocked to see this guy hanging onto the Hummingbird feeder a few months back. I always have my camera, so was able to snap a few before he flew back to Cape May. LOL
  24. Downy Woodpecker

    Downy Woodpecker

    We have an abundance of Downys in the yard, and this one in particular likes to visit the dead limbs on my orange tree. Late fall, he will even peck at my oranges.
