#bee #honeybee #nature #wildflowers Went out to look for butterflies, came home with bees. Here's a hard working Honeybee, busy pollinating the Boneset. ☺️

#birds #nature #wildlife #vulture Today’s #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #FlyingHigh, any bird flying high in the sky. These Turkey Vultures are flying to the top of the cell antenna tower, gathering for their morning meetup. They'll be flying even higher a half hour from now after they warm up! 😊

#birds #nature #wildlife #gull Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #UnusualPlaces, any bird that turns up in a place where you wouldn't normally expect to see it! We think of Ring-billed Gulls on a sunny beach, but might not expect to see one sitting in the snow on a cold central Illinois morning! 😬
#fruit #farmersmarket #orchard Ran out to the orchard today to see what early varieties of apples are available. Many weeks too early for the Jonagolds I use for applesauce. Got a few Ginger Gold apples, a little bunch of peaches, and enough small plums to make several half-pints of jam. 😋 😀

#birds #nature #wildlife #ducks #mallard Today's alternative #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Ducklings. Here's mamma Mallard tending her troop. Looks like a nice day to just hang around at the riverside and supervise that herd of youngsters. ☺️
#birds #nature #wildlife Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #AtOneWithNature, celebrating birds in their natural environment with no manmade objects. American White Pelicans migrate through central Illinois in the spring and fall. One of our largest birds, it's always a pleasure to see them. ☺️
#birds #nature #wildlife #woodpecker Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #NoBranchWood, any bird on wood that is not a branch. Here's an immature Downy Woodpecker perched on a lattice. Yes, the lattice is plastic, but the bird doesn't know that. He thinks it's wood, so that's good enough for me. 😆
#birds #nature #wildlife #cardinal Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RunningFromTheLaw - any bird that is moving fast on land or water. This male Northern Cardinal, our yard pal for almost 5 years, grabbed a peanut from a slightly scary... uh... bird feeder?... 😬 and he's making a run for it! 😄
#birds #hummingbird #nature #wildlife In central Illinois all the new Ruby-throated Hummingbird fledglings are out on their own, learning the feeders, and drinking a lot. 😋 The speckled throat shows this is an immature male. His throat will be completely ruby-red by next spring! ☺️

#birds #nature #wildlife The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #LittleBrownBirds; time to show love for the small brown birds in your life. This bird is named for the color indigo, but it's brown. And it is little. This is a female Indigo Bunting, fairly common in central Illinois in the summer. 😊
#birds #nature #wildlife #goldfinch The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RedOrDead, any bird with red in the capture but not on the bird. Here's a picture of Mr. and Mrs. American Goldfinch having breakfast on a red feeder. 😁

#birds #nature #wildlife #hummingbird Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #YourChoice of bird capture/ captures. Here's an immature male Ruby-throated Hummingbird from a few years ago, stopped to rest on the lattice. He caught the light just right to reflect like gold foil. Pretty little thing. ☺️

#birds #nature #wildlife #swans Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OneTwoThreeFour, 4 photos with 1, 2, 3, 4 birds, with each photo being the same bird/s. Here are several Mute Swans, 1, 2, 3, & 4, from various points of view. And I didn't even add any more with PhotoShop! 😆 😉 😀
