The Eastern Gray Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), also known as the grey squirrel depending on region, is a tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus. It is native to eastern North America, where it is the most prodigious and ecologically essential natural forest regenerator.The generic name, Sciurus, is derived from two Greek words, skia, meaning shadow, and oura, meaning tail. This name alludes to the squirrel sitting in the shadow of its tail. The specific epithet, carolinensis, refers to the Carolinas, where the species was first recorded and where the animal is still extremely common. In the United Kingdom and Canada, it is simply referred to as the "grey squirrel". In the US, "eastern" is used to differentiate the species from the western gray squirrel (Sciurus griseus).

I was fortunate to see this owl a couple of times, but it always had its eyes closed sleeping. On this last occasion it finally had its eyes open, but I was only able to get a few images as too many people came by and it was getting stressed by the loud voices so I left.

Hi there,

 

Red Columbine is a fairly common spring wildflower. It is easily grown from seed and so many gardeners are beginning to grow this type of aquilegia. I spotted this one on a recent neighbourhood walk.

 

Thank you for stopping by and for leaving me a comment! Have a wonderful day!

Eastern Meadowlark

 

From Audubon:

 

A familiar bird, known by the black "V" on its chest when it sings from a fencepost, or by the flash of white tail feathers when it flushes from the grass. The clear whistled song of the Eastern Meadowlark can be heard in spring not only in the East but also in desert grasslands of the Southwest. Some scientists believe that the southwestern form is actually a different species. Other races of the Eastern Meadowlark are widespread in Central America and northern South America.

 

Photographed, of course, at Joe Overstreet Road.

Wikipedia: The eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) is a small North American migratory thrush found in open woodlands, farmlands, and orchards.

 

The bright-blue breeding plumage of the male, easily observed on a wire or open perch, makes this species a favorite of birders. It is the state bird of Missouri and New York.

 

Conservation status: Least Concern

Spring weather has come early here in Georgia. The redbuds are in bloom already. A few L0uis1ana Waterthrush are beginning to show up on breeding grounds here but the first meaningful push of Spring migrants is yet a few weeks away.
