We didn’t see much for birds on Saturday at Donnelley Wildlife Management Area. The Spoonie Tree, so named because Roseate Spoonbills like to perch in it when they are around, had no birds when we arrived.
The elusive Kingfisher was in her usual spot on the water control trunk.
However, she relocated to the Spoonie Tree when she noticed us.

lol. I also got some shots of a female kingfisher sitting on a distant branch this past week. She was digesting so she didn’t fly off for the longest time. Just wish she was a little bit closer.😉
Cool! They are fun to watch and such acrobatic flyers, and usually just a tad out of reach.
