This is a lifer (first) for me. I don't think they're terribly rare, just my first.

My recent favorite. That’s a juvenile bald eagle and a great blue heron

Oh yeah this indigo bunting bit they’re pretty easy to find this time of year and definitely not my best phot of one. I try not to take them for granted.

I’d mentioned I would look for some painted buntings and i did. I heard some and blue grosbeak and red eyed vireo which are somewhat uncommon. This was the highlight though. Not a bird.

These are wingless wasps with one of the most painful stings on the planet.

Dixon was fishing then sibling Luka came by for leftovers, was yelled at by a Great Blue Heron for coming in too hot and fast, and there wasn't even any left.

Hadn't seen one of these in decades, but I also hadn't been out in the country in this area in about that long.
