As I walk along the nature trails at Falcon State Park, I start to notice the smaller orange things, like flowers and butterflies:
A flax family flower (species unknown),
a globemallow flower (Mallow family, species unknown) with an orange butterfly (Sulfur family, species unknown),
a Golden-fronted Woodpecker with a golden hair-do (species known, after all, I am a birder),
a Red Admiral, but orange in this light (species known, sometimes I am lucky),
a Calico Bush or Texas Lantana (species known, sometimes google helps) with small brown and white butterfly (species unknown),
and another dose of orange from the Altamira Oriole eating a grapefruit (red, not orange).
I have started squeezing and drinking my second 10 lb bag of oranges. I just can't get enough doses of orange or oranges.

Hi Maria,
I'm enjoying your pictures and comments. I've sent your blog to my son and daughter-in-law who are beginning to be avid birders

Mom,
Great blog! Read all the entries thus far and all about the Jaeger. Did you know that Jaeger means "hunter" in German. I wonder if that has any significance for this bird.
NEB
