Cara Cara
Kenansville FL
April 13, 2026
We rode up and down Joe Overstreet just to see what we could see. We found Cara Cara!! Even a young one!
You can see the difference in coloration between the adult and baby.
We saw a lot of other fun stuff.
I’m so hoping we will see baby burrowing owls.
Happy Birthday Bob Mann!
Stay safe! XO
Unusual Sighting
Kenansville Fl

We haven’t seen a painted bunting in years but this morning we saw a female painted bunting. We are starting to say what else is going to show up?!!! There is so much variety here.
Stay safe! XO
Sally’s Shots
April 9 & 10, 2026
Kenansville, FL
Exciting news, the first one of these is new to us.
It’s a warbler with a bicolored bill. See how it’s yellow underneath? Hard to tell from these pictures but this little guy is teeny!! About 3 inches.
Yay!! A wood duck!!! Haven’t seen one in a long time. They are so cool.
Hope you enjoyed these.
Stay safe! XO
A Mix

Some of these are from the Landing and some are from Joe Overstreet today.
The white feather dangling from his head is part of his breeding plumage
Stay safe! XO
More Amazing Stuff
April 5, 2026
This is how we observed Easter Sunday morning.
We all noticed how small the snail was. I said it’s an amuse bouche, a cooking term meaning a small bite. It is presented to the judge on a small white porcelain spoon in a cooking competition, an example of the person’s best work. We all had a good laugh over it.
Paul took this from his pontoon.

Osprey with a fish too big
April 5, 2026
Happy Easter everyone! We celebrated by spending the morning in nature and enjoying a sunny clear day lakeside.
This Osprey captured a fish too big to swallow.
He couldn’t hold onto it never mind eat it. So he flew away unfulfilled.
Hope you enjoyed the show.
Stay safe! XO
The Mix

Sally’s Juvenile Eagle Dive
April 4, 2026
Before I show you that, I want to share two photographs by our friend Paul.
I’ve never seen a pelican in this pose. Paul says it’s Pelican yoga. The pelican is stretching its pouch to exercise it and clean it out of any debris. Very interesting.
Now for the dive
The next two shots are pretty weird.
Hope you enjoyed.
Stay safe! XO
Vic’s Osprey Dive
April 3, 2026
It was another gorgeous morning at the Landing. That’s what we call the area where we sit. It’s a big area, room for all of us to sit comfortably and see all the action. Blue skies, puffy clouds, a nice breeze, boats going past occasionally, it’s just perfect. Someone always comments on what a perfect place this is and the rest of us express our happiness at being here.
This is Vic’s Osprey dive.
Hope you enjoyed the show!
Stay safe. XO
Mixed Bag and a Dive
April 2, 2026
These are my shots. The Osprey dive is Vic’s.
Osprey Dive
The Osprey goes much deeper into the water to get a fish than an eagle.
Stay safe! XO
