7.10.10

It’s been awhile since my last post.  We just got back from a short trip on the St Johns River.

I spotted this bird in the back yard. It’s not a graceful bird….seemed kind of clumsy in it’s travel from branch to branch.

I think it might be a Great Crested Flycatcher.020cs

I think I can see faint yellow on it’s belly.  In this photo you can see the crest.029cs

  2. I got so excited about a year ago, when I saw my first pair of Great Crested Flycatchers in our yard! The ones I saw looked a little lighter and a had a little more yellow showing. They are unusual looking birds. They stopped by this year but only for a few minutes.
