Aug 14th, thank you for all the well wishes for my hubby. He is doing well and he was told his blood work was good. His diet seems to be a daily battle.


1. June 24, One of my favorite local trails goes thru a pine tree forest. While walking with Miney I had the Merlin App recording the birds I heard singing. The Pine Warbler is a regular in my neighborhood and on this trail. 




The Pine Warbler has been seen different times of the year here. I know they are breeders in the forest around our home. I hear them singing during most of my walks with Miney. You can see this male has the yellow with black streaks.





On one of my walks with Miney, we were just on the local fire road not far from home, she stopped and refused to go further, she was watching one section off the trail I thought she was scared of whatever was there. I was thinking it was a black bear roaming around our local forest, I have seen them here before.  




The Acadian Flycatcher is one of our summer birds, it returns to the forest that surrounds our home and the Prettyboy reservoir. The Acadian Flycatcher is olive above, narrow eye-ring and has two wingbars. Their forehead is rather flat sloping gently to give a peaked look.




2. June 25th, my walk with Miney is another local fire road trail. I am not sure what these wildflowers are called.  






3. June 27th, I watch the Ruby-throated Hummingbird perched near his feeder.  






4. June 28th, since we have had so much it seem I am seeing lots of mushroom growing along side the fire road. 






5. June 29th, We walked our local fire road once again. This time I did more of a loop and came to a downed tree we had to cross over. She makes jumping over these trees look easy.  






6. June 30th, my birdwatching dog Miney was watching some birds up in the tree next to the trail. 







7. Lately on my walks, I have been hearing the Yellow-throated Vireo.  I have seen them before in the summer time and my Merlin App has been picking their sounds on my local fire road walks. This Vireo is colorful, has a yellow eye-ring and thick bill, has the yellow throat and it's belly is white.









8. August 2015, flashback photos and a visit to the North Point State Park in Baltimore County. One this day we saw lots of Great Egret, Little Blue Herons and a Tricolored Heron. Below starting on the left are two Little Blue Herons, in the middle is a Tricolored Heron and on the right a Great Egret and another Little Blue Heron. 




The transitional mottled Little Blue Heron.
