Piranga rubra - Summer Tanager
Passerina cyanea - Indigo Bunting

The fog was thick as pea soup this morning, with the moisture was condensing on the leaves and the pine needles. The birds were enjoying the cool morning and bathing in the dew.

And this Red Wing Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) was really showing his epaulets.

Bubo virginianus - Great Horned Owl

And we didn't have the camera! :(

"AGH! a snake! a snake! Ohhhh... It's a snake!"

Why Sarah hasn't been taking as many pictures or spenting as much time at the Beaver Pond:

Monday, May 21

We were having dinner last night with Mrs. Christine Brown. While we were at the dining table, we were treated to a show on the railing of the deck:

Passerculus sandwichensis - Savannah Sparrow


sandwichensis ??? Where did they come up with that one?

Monday, May 14

• Lophodytes cucullatus - Hooded Merganser

And I got to see the reason for the beaver pond. (S)He was swimming about 20 yards away from our observation post, headed back toward the dam... Photos were taken, but they are never as good as being there LIVE!

Saturday, May 12

Birds only heard early this morning:

• Strix varia - Barred Owl
• Caprimulgus vociferus - Chuck-Will's-Widow
• Caprimulgus carolinenis - Whip-poor-will
• Callipepla squamam - Nothern Bobwhite

Birds at the Beaver Pond:

• Anhiga anhiga- Anhiga
• Polioptila caerulea - Blue-Grey Gnatcatcher
• Boaurus lentigingus - America Bittern
  
  

On the farm pond:

• Phalacrocorax auritus - Double Crested Cormorant

And... late this afternoon, we finally got to not only hear but also see:

• Callipepla squamam - Nothern Bobwhite
  

This morning we were able to watch two deer across the smoky Beaver Pond

(a distance of around 200 yards)!

Wednesday, May 9 - Trip to Savannah

• Bubulcus ibis - Cattle Egret
• Euphagus carolinus - Rusty Blackbird

We would have love to seen more - we were limited in time and there is an subtropical storm causing rain in and around Savannah.

What began as a mid-latitude or extratropical low pressure system has transitioned to a subtropical storm named Andrea. A tropical storm watch is posted from Altamaha Sound, Georgia southward to Flagler Beach, Florida. Andrea has maximum sustained winds of 45 mph and little change of strength is forecast. The storm is located about 110 miles southeast of Savannah, Georgia and is moving slowly towards the west at 3 mph. The center of Andrea is forecast to remain offshore through at least Thursday morning and possibly for the remainder of its lifespan.

The greatest impacts from this storm have likely peaked on Monday and Tuesday (before it was even given a name) but an isolated tropical storm-force wind gust or two is still possible especially along the South Carolina and Georgia coast.

Wave heights will continue to be on the decline during the remainder of the week however breakers of 9 to 12 feet will still crash along the beaches of South Carolina during much of tomorrow. Minor to moderate beach erosion is still possible and the risk of rip currents will remain high through at least Thursday and possibly longer.

Coastal showers will move onshore from time to time tonight and Thursday especially along the South Carolina, Georgia, and northeastern Florida coast. Unfortunately for the arid Southeast, any bit of rain is beneficial but it will likely not be a soaking rainfall. The rain that does fall will likely not be enough to help firefighters battle the fires over southeast Georgia and northern Florida.

Saturday, May 5

We were beginning to think our morning walk would be without a new bird to add to our life list. We again walked to the Beaver Pond, where we were very disappointed with the lack of birds. Nothing, Nadda, Nil. Were we too early, was the cloud cover and wind the reason? Or both?

We made our way back to the pond, and sat in the swing. Shortly, we were treated to our new bird of the day:

• Anas platyrhynchos - Mallard Duck

They almost landed on the pond.

And away they flew!!!

The many "tamed" duck are fun to watch and feed on a daily basis. But seeing wild ducks on the pond is a special treat!

Friday, May 4
