Happy Leap Day
You know I love my birds, but today gives me the opportunity to share my campground critters. The first photo is my leaper!
That is a bungee cord he’s sitting next to, he was tiny!
Of course, you can’t go anywhere in Florida without seeing a little lizard.
Another leaper…..or I guess more appropriately, hopper!
Why did the turtle cross the road?
To get to the other side! 🙂
That turtle really needed a washing!
I was told there had been sightings of a bobcat on the premises, but I didn’t see nor wished to tangle with one of them.
Happy Leap Day!
they are beautiful photographs, especially the first one, 🙂 Thank you dear Donna, Love, nia
He is a green cutie! 🙂
Hi Donna! I really enjoyed seeing all of your posts in Florida! Same with here in Maryland too. 🙂 Just thought I’d let you know that the osprey is back!! I just had my first sighting of the year this morning on route 50 resting on the nest close to the new thrift store/motel. It’s the nest you took pictures of before in the past when you first saw the ospreys. How exciting! So hurry back home so they could have their wonderful pictures taken by you. 🙂
Tammy, I saw your comment shortly after you posted it and was elated to here the good news one of the Osprey is back at Rt 50 on Feb 29! This is earlier than any previous years where I recorded March 5th as the earliest. Great Opsrey eye, Tammy! Since your email, I’ve received QAC bird alerts and one was late yesterday and many today submitting this sighting. You did good, you were first! 🙂
Thanks for sharing your critters! Hope you get to see that bobcat. He’ll most likely skulk away and be hoping that you don’t.
Thanks Sharon! No such luck on the bobcat before we left Florida, although I did try to watch the tree area where he was sighted often. He was probably watching me, lol.
These are terrific!
Thanks so much Belinda!
They’re all so cute! I really like that little frog. I thought you would say the Turtle crossed the road to have it’s photograph made. 🙂
Oh yes, he said that too! 🙂 Actually, he was probably telling me to get out of the way, lady, I need to get to the pond for my afternoon spa. 😉
LOL! No doubt. 🙂
Fantastic shots, Donna. Happy leap day to you. Yes the turtle really needs his back scrubbed. 🙂
Thanks Sylvia, yes, maybe just a little! 🙂
The leapers (and hoppers) are all cute! The turtle doesn’t need washing, that’s the way that they blend into their surroundings and remain hidden. It’s too bad that you have to leave Florida, you’ve been getting truly great photos there.
Thanks Jerry, it’s been a lot of fun! It sure is the time of year to come for birding in Florida.
We’ve had to leave this bird paradise & start heading home, and I’m still going through a ton of photos. It has been bird overload!
Leaping photos and jokes for a great leap day, Donna — fun post.
Thanks, Jet, we had fun with our Leap Day posts! 🙂
What a lovely assortment of critters they are Donna!
Thanks Ashley, I can never resist anything nature if I have my camera handy! 🙂
More tempting photos begging to be Neocolored! 😀 Thank you, thank you!
Happy Neocoloring, Laura! 😀
Thanks, Donna!
Great choices for the bonus day! We used to have cougar sightings at the old house, but I never got to see one. I always wanted to, but at a goodly distance. 🙂
From a goodly distance would have been cool to see! 🙂
Happy Leap Day! Love your little frog – such character in that face! 😉
He’s such a cutie, he just can’t help but smile!! 🙂
