I had Nothing..


I had nothing to post today... I intended to skip a day or two and see what happens. I visited Eileen at Viewing Nature and while gasping at the beauty of her Florida Birds, I thought I have Folders Full of Florida birds.. all from the  past.. Here are a few from 2007.

TODAY I AM RESTING ON MY LAURELS


 


 

Wild Parakeets, there were about 100 of them.

    Hello Sandra, I love your Florida birds. I would have been excited to see the wild parakeets. I heard they were in Florida, I just could not find them. Great captures! Have a happy weekend!

    Mallards we have. (Is there anywhere on earth they don't have them?!) Parakeets we have not (except perhaps at pets, indoors).

    Hello, Sandra! Since you mentioned this post I had to come back for a looksie.

    Your parakeets are the Monk Parakeet. I think all the parakeets are cool, great sighting! They are common in Florida too.

    I saw some in Cape Coral during my stay. BTW, thanks for mentioned my blog in this post.
