It's the time of the seasons change!
Here in Brazil we are spending the summer and soon we will be in the autumn season!
* I'm grateful for visit, faves and comments of my photo.
Minnesota is on the migration path of snow geese, and I found about 1000 of them.
Anser caerulescens. Very localized, but abundant where they occur, Snow Geese typically are seen in large numbers or not at all. Included under this heading is the "Blue Goose," long considered a separate species, now known to be only a color morph of the smaller race of Snow (Lesser Snow Goose).
Snow Geese fly overhead as the marshy lake at Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge freezes during this sunrise shot. The mix of the fog and haze in the low areas mixed with the partly cloudy skies and partially frozen marsh lake made for a very interesting reflection of the birds and trees.
This image was from my time spent with the Louisiana Waterthrush in April. This warbler almost always sets up territory around small streams and creek beds. It can be found searching for food on the water's edge, and likes to hop from rock to rock. A very habitat oriented image, and you can see how the birds coloration blends into the surroundings very nicely. Presumably a bit of camouflage for protection! Please view large for best experience.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the weekend~!
Prairie Warbler singing at the top of his lungs that rising buzzy bee metallic tune. Well, my 2018 warbler campaign is about done. Not enough time this Spring to achieve the goals I had set forth for warblers. The Cerulean and Blackburnian will have to wait until next season. On to shorebirds and waders! Please view large for best experience.
Once again, thanks to all who drop by my Photostream. Your faves and comments are much appreciated ~
Carpe Diem!
Encore plusieurs groupes en l'espace de 30mn environ.
Je croyais que c'était fini. Est-ce que cela sent le froid arriver ?
Passage 16h40
As always, I am always very late in posting my pics... ah well, better late than never... more editing to do!
Backlit, late in the day, and it is pretty clear one of them is the runt of the group. The size difference is pretty amazing, especially since it is almost erased in a few days.
these Wildebeest had spent the night in the woodlands and were heading towards the Ndutu Marsh area (in the south east of the Serengeti, Tanzania )
The south east of the Serengeti is the most southern part of the annual Great Migration . It is the area where most of the Wildebeest calves are born.
Many thanks for your views, favorites and supportive comments.

Tundra Swans heading to northern Canada to their nesting grounds. We saw hundreds in that past week which is heartwarming as it is not so along ago thatvthey were endangered.
Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
A few of the 1.5 million Wildebeest that migrate around the Serengeti every year. In late September large groups, hundreds strong, cross the Mara River as they head back south.

The beginning of the annual Monarch Migration - Panama City Beach, Florida
Tom's Butterfly Garden earlier this morning. The silvery leaves of the Buddleja davidii (Butterfly Bush) look almost like butterflies in migration themselves.

Home now from the most amazing trip to Kenya and South Africa. The Great Migration in the Maasi Mara was certainly the highlight. Memories to last a life time!!!
Hello everyone, I have been back for a week now but still very busy catching up with the multitude of tasks. Currently I am away for a few days in Bendigo where there are matters to attend to.
I had an enjoyable trip in both Madagascar and Kenya, took heaps of photos and I am happy to spot the big five but a bit disappointed not to witness a migration crossing the Mara River!
Will catch up when time permits.
Happy Travel Tuesday
A refueling stop for a monarch butterfly on its way to Mexico. I've seen a fair number of monarchs passing though Wichita this fall on a regular basis, but typically just one at a time and not in any big bunches.

I witnessed an awesome crossing of Wildebeest in Kenya a couple of years ago! While going through my photos I am again overwhelmed by the view of this spectacular event!

Every spring the Snow Geese move from their wintering grounds to their arctic nesting areas throughout the Midwest along with thousands of other waterfowl.
I have never seen so many. Amazing sight!
Just a small section of the tens of thousands of Snow Geese that are on the move across Pa. They will eventually make their way north to their breeding grounds on the Arctic Tundra.
