[Passarinhando no Brasil] Ibiraci, MG. Carnaval de 2013
No carnaval deste ano fui para Ibiraci, MG. O tempo não ajudou, choveu muito. Somente na segunda-feira, 11/02/13 consegui algumas fotos. Fui para a região de cerrado, depois da represa de Peixoto. Lá sempre rende uns bichos legais. A luz não ajudava, mas foi o que consegui fazer. Até a próxima…
Headbanger
Rushing out the door, I went over the list in my head. Workout pants and layered tees—check. Running shoes—check. Coat, hat, gloves—check. Keys and sunglasses—check. MP3 player—check.

I have observed and photographed only the first two nuthatches, but hopefully I will be able to see and photograph the other two in the future. Nuthatches name […]
Mead Gardens, 2/13/2013
There was a sure sign that Spring is returning to Central Florida this morning at Mead Gardens–the lovely sound of Northern Parula singing in the Live Oak trees. It’s a very welcome sound, and I found about 5 this morning, though none posed for photographs. A pair of Wood Ducks, however, were just begging to […]
