New arrival for 2019, male Painted Bunting, various wildflowers blooming. Passerina ciris

.. from a print scan.. the pic was taken in August of 1976

 

I've been messing about with hundreds of old prints.. I'm trying a scan now and then.

 

I'm pretty sure a Nikon F3 was used for this.. my main camera at that time.. if not it would have been a Nikon F.

 

Thanks for looking in! - Have a great day!

The most seductive color....

In the Darkness of the Night

It’s nice to have a Candlelight

It fills the Air with a magic Flair

This lovely and romantic Atmosphere

Is Balm for our Soul

But Feelings might get out of Control

There’s nothing better

Than a Candlelight Dinner

Especially in the Night

Of a very cold Winter

The painted stork (Mycteria leucocephala) is a large wading bird in the stork family. It is found in the wetlands of the plains of tropical Asia south of the Himalayas in the Indian Subcontinent and extending into Southeast Asia. Their distinctive pink tertial feathers give them their name. They forage in flocks in shallow waters along rivers or lakes. They immerse their half open beaks in water and sweep them from side to side and snap up their prey of small fish that are sensed by touch. As they wade along they also stir the water with their feet to flush hiding fish. They nest colonially in trees, often along with other waterbirds. The only sounds they produce are weak moans or bill clattering at the nest. They are not migratory and only make short distance movements in some parts of their range in response to changes in weather or food availability or for breeding. Like other storks, they are often seen soaring on thermals.(Wikipedia)

Vanessa cardui is a well-known colorful butterfly, known as the painted lady, or formerly in North America as the cosmopolitan. This is one of the butterflies that are always around our gardens.

Smile on Saturday theme: Paint(ed)

 

These rocks were painted for me by Tracey Bultji. She left more in special places around the neighbourhood.

Sometimes the best bird of the day is close to home. After making the trip to the coast in search of migrants and having little luck I spent the last couple of hours of sunlight birding very near my home where I encountered this Painted Bunting. I’m sure glad he seems to have set up a territory and to be here for the summer. Lucky me!!

Passerina ciris, Painted Bunting posing one warm afternoon in early June on a Yucca.

The painted bunting is a sparrow-sized bird about 5 and a half inches in length. It is one of the most colorful birds in North America. The male has bright red underparts and rump. It has a green back, a blue head and a red eye ring.

 

The female is bright yellow-green with paler underparts. Both the male and the female have dark brown or black wings, a dark bill and dark legs.

 

There are two breeding populations of the painted bunting in the United States. The eastern population breeds from North Carolina south to northern Florida. The western population breeds from Kansas and Missouri south to the Gulf Coast and northeastern Mexico. The painted bunting winters in southern Florida, Mexico, Central America, and Cuba.

 

The painted bunting forages on the ground and in low vegetation for seeds, insects, spiders and snails.

 

I found this female (Or male Juvenile) in my back yard in Polk County, Florida.
