Well, well… my new bird book just came in pretty handy!
Yesterdays photo’s of the Anhinga… I failed to mention that it was a male. Today I took a picture when I say an Anhinga on the floater.. this one did not have a brown neck and head. The book tells me this is the female!! Hello? How cool would it be one day to see baby Anhinga’s out there!! woohoo!
They aren’t here all the time so I don’t know where they would nest, but if they do I hope they bring the babies back here to fish!
Another notice… now there are two adult Moodhens! And one keeps chasing the young ones away!.. I do think some hanky-panky is in the future here!
And least but not least.. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve gotten aching arms trying to get a picture of the dang Mullet that jump all the time in the pond! All the time EXCEPT when I am camera ready!
But I got one today! It’s not the best and I’ll keep trying for a better shot but there just no telling when or where in the pond they will jump! Sometimes they look as if someone has shot them out of the water with a sling shot!
