Be sure to go to “2. Photo shoot images” by clicking in left column – Jim Dick posted  some TGO bobcat photos and hummingbird photos.  You will not want to miss these beautiful photos!!

Then come back here and learn of breakfast not served at the Brubaker’s.

One just like this bird was sitting on the bank behind our house while I was having breakfast yesterday. The anhinga photos and the following Cool Facts are from Cornell Lab of Ornithology

    • The Anhinga’s distinctive shape earned it the nickname “water turkey” for its turkeylike tail, and “snake bird” for its long snakelike neck as it slithers through the water
    • Unlike most waterbirds, the Anhinga doesn’t have waterproof feathers. While that may seem like a disadvantage for their watery lifestyle, their wet feathers and dense bones help them slowly submerge their bodies under the water so they can slyly stalk fish.
    • The name Anhinga comes from the Tupi Indians in Brazil, meaning “devil bird” or “evil spirit of the woods.”
    • The oldest recorded Anhinga was at least 12 years old.

 

YIPES – I am out of here! Poor gator – no breakfast.

As you swing thru life – Keep that camera with you at all times – you might get a fun shot – In this case it was my iPhone with a little help from post processor.
