The Pale-headed Rosella is a medium-sized, broad-tailed parrot, with a pale head and all white, or blue and white cheek patches. The underbelly is mainly blue, with red under the tail. The back is yellow with dark flecks. The female is similar, though slightly duller, with an off-white underwing stripe.
Even though it is brightly coloured, the Pale-headed Rosella is very well camouflaged when feeding among leaves in the canopy of trees.
Grey-headed Swamphen ~ (Porphyrio poliocephalus)
The Grey-headed Swamphen is not a bird I get to see in Florida very often. They are more common in Southern Florida. It was nice seeing this one on the trip to get the Dark-billed Cuckoo. Taken at Wakodahatchee. They remind me of a Purple Gallinule that has been on a high protein diet and hitting the gym obsessively.
Thanks for visiting!
And now, with CoVid, twice the fear!

Of course, this happens regularly, twice an hour, so the crew has lots of experience in "turning around". :-)

So much going on, from China's new AI technology package to our unseasonal weather change everywhere!
Here are two new visitors and a Gold Finch, sharing...They are Purple Finches that add a pretty new shade of colour!
Also 'Head's up" as I will be having surgery tomorrow and won't be posting much for a while...I will look at your posts and comment as I can, because they are too good to miss! :-)
Now, something to think about...
Why didn't the sun go to college?
Because he already has a million degrees!
Take care, everyone!

Anhinga - In The Wild - 9/23/21
Palm Beach County, Florida USA
*[left-double-click for a closer-look - wing-drying]
*[the snake bird - the swimming bird - large-adult]
*[Yes, the Anhinga is in the 'cormorant-family'. Anhingas have
straight-bills, and double-crested cormorants have hooked-bills.]
*[The Anhinga lives in shallow, slow-moving, sheltered waters
and uses nearby perches and banks for drying and sunning.]
*[It 'bobs' and 'weaves' its head in somewhat of an
'Anhinga Dance'! It's fun to see. Thanks for looking.]
Stunning tanager: mostly green with reddish head. Some populations have electric blue underparts, others entirely green. Similar to Rufous-winged Tanager but always has green wings. Found in pairs or small flocks in forest and edges, often in mixed feeding flocks from midstory to the canopy. Feeds on fruit.
This one was photographed in Colombia guided by Neotropic Photo Tours.
Its worth trying the lightbox looks better I think on Black
Spent last weekend in the Yorkshire Dales it was cool dark and rainy so the camera was not much in use. Saw a great many spring lambs and not a decent image. Fortunately had a shot I quite liked from a previous Spring in the Dales
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT HAVE A GREAT DAY
A restaurant of heads covered by unbrellas . . . When I came upon this scene . . . all I could see was umbrellas and heads as far as I could see.
And I didn't have anything to drink either!!
Driving though Skye, the moody skies kept on coming, then some sunlight broke through. There was no particular point of focal interst to weight the viewers eye to, so I used some movement to convey the feeling the light was evoking, as it slowly swept its way across the vista.
A short stop by the side of the road and then onward to the next undiscovered beauty-spot.
