A few random photos shot over the last few days:
The Daily Bucket is a regular series from the Backyard Science group. Here we talk about Mother Nature in all her glory, especially the parts that live nearby. So let us know (as close as you are comfortable) where you are and what's going on around you. What's the weather like? Seen any interesting plants, bugs or critters? Are there birds at your feeders? Deer, foxes or peahens in your yard? Seen any cool rocks or geological features? Post your observations and notes here. And photos. We like lots of photos. :)
A Turkey Vulture stops for a drink.
Ospreys at their nest.
A Pileated Woodpecker hunting for bugs.
A Green Anole flashing his dewlap at me.
This gnarled old tree has a hitchhiker growing on top of it.
Dragonfly porn.
An egret stealing bits of kale from the Manatee hospital tanks at the zoo. I guess he wanted some veggies with his fish.
A plant with two-toned flowers. I just thought it looked cool.
And now it's your turn: what's randomly happening in your neck of the woods? :)
