Male Osprey fishing from light pole at the beach |
Just a few of our local birds and a common and daily sight for us. They are not "common" birds though but "bewitching birds" as I never get tired of seeing them.

Speckled Pigeon, not a common sight on the beach, but there he was with a dozen or so cousins |
Is a limping pigeon human toed?
If a pigeon says "ribbit" is it a pigeon toad?
Is an insane pigeon "cooooo cooooo"?
What does a pigeon con man call their mark?
Oh! You wanted FUNNY pigeon jokes. Sorry.
Sandra these are beautiful photos. My favorite is the Osprey.
ReplyDeleteFunny funny Pigeon jokes. LOL
Wow these photos are beautiful! I really like the fighting Gulls pic!!
ReplyDeleteThey're all wonderful Sandra, but I love that Osprey! He's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFabulous shots of beautiful birds.
ReplyDeleteWe love all types of birds! Awesome pics, my friend! AND the smiles....you know I love them! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou got great pictures of all these birds, but I really like your picture of the fighting gulls.
ReplyDeleteWow---I love this post, Sandra.. It is TERRIFIC.... That fighting gull picture is great --but the one which caught my attention was the heron with its reflection in the water.. AWESOME... You should enter that one in Joan's contest this month.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Great set Sandra i think the gull is in fact a Sandwich Tern juvenile I think. Really like the gulls fighting over jellyfish too
ReplyDeletePhenomenal photos ... what a sight to have available.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the heron, your pictures are just so stunning! You even got that little bit of deep red on the back of his neck! And the reflection in super!!! Next favorite is that cute little unidentified bird. And that pigeon DOES look like he's limping, just to suit your first joke! Matter of fact, when I started reading that joke, I thought this pigeon was limping, then realized it was a joke!! Well, you know I go bonkers over birds!!
ReplyDeleteHi Sandra! Really like this post with all the Florida birds! We get down there frequently and I love love love photographing all the wildlife. Right now, just have the critters from my back yard! I think I'll be hanging around ... new follower here!
ReplyDeleteWow, these are really good bird photos.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh these pictures are beautiful - did you take and see them all? AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots of the birds. I love the first one of the Osprey. I'm not familiar with that one but it looks it's got some wicked talons on it.
ReplyDeleteThese are all terrific Sandra!! I love the watery reflections and the first is powerful. I especially love the charming (2nd to last one) but not familar..the sand and beach stuff is sooo pretty!! I enjoy doves (almost had to take one out of my cats mouth yesterday, but she dropped it) (sigh)
ReplyDeleteI love these, all of the birds are beautiful. I especially like the lone gull and the tern since they look different from the ones here.
ReplyDeleteI really like the heron, that's a great reflection.
Wonderful shot of the osprey. I have spent summers taking photos of ospreys and never gotten this close. Very cool.
ReplyDeletelol....love your birds....
ReplyDeleteAll the bird shots are beautiful. You are a real funny bunny with your bird jokes!
ReplyDeleteLove ya, Madeline
