Blue-headed Vireos are a real rarity on the Pacific Coast. Welcome migrants journey back to Southern Mexico and Central America for winter. Vireos are beautiful, tough little birds in a big crazy world. #birdsoftheworld #birds #aves #birdsofbluesky #blueskybirds #vireo #migration #birdphotography

A Great Horned Owl showed up in a tree over my Dunedin, Florida backyard and I was alerted by the loud harassing calls of a murder of crows that weren't happy with his presence. #birds #owls #greathornedowl #DunedinFlorida #birdsofflorida #birdsofbluesky #birdphotography #raptor #birdsofprey
