Bird Watching at Lake Okeechobee

In the company of my solitude

"Ahhh!!! The bliss of solitude"

Terrific posing. I like how Mama stated it- synchronized turning.
Nice composition.

Oh yeah, 'they is looking at you' for sure. Love birds, and Grackels are beautiful.
Thanks,

You know me, I want to know what type of bird they are :) I need to come birding in your neck of the woods.

The bottom picture is really neat, especially the way the bird on the right has twisted his head soooooo far around.

Loved the blue of the gone fishin' post, and the birds synchronized gym...
Glad to read that you had a great time at the Conch Republic!

Annie said...

Moi, I love your Okeechobee shots.

Yoda said...

Wait, these aren't the real birds ....... What kinda birdwatching is this?

freefalling said...

They look so delicate.
Like their little legs could snap right off!
I'll never forget the first time I held a bird - it was like holding air.

Ash said...

I would like to know what the two birds are on the right and left. I know the grackle in the middle. Do you know their name?

I second Yoda! What kinda birds are these? where are the real ones?? so disheartening! :P

Sand said...

The perch got taken over. He doesnt seem to mind though! Great shots! I agree that the second one is very cool because of them looking the same direction.

gaz said...

nice to see the beegees back together again!

Very nice shots. I like the way the birds are set off by the regularity of the rail and the rich green nd gold of the marsh.

Jo's-D-Eyes said...

Will the recent floods in Seattle affect your plans?

WichitaKsDailyPhoto said...

It's as if they just watched an airplane pass by. It would be fun to be a bird, and fly around to various vacation spots, build a nest and settle down, rent free.

Mark said...

Hi Moi,
You are getting about , Like this one, the way they are all facing and the pattern they make.

Cheers Mark
