I caught this squirrel sitting on a small palm tree outside our window. He had his cheeks full of fuzz from the tree and I was able to snap the top shot. When he took his paws and folded the fuzz up I was happy to get more shots. He was so cute. He jumped from the palm tree over to the oak tree and took off up the tree. I can see a half built nest up there but it’s really not nesting season since it’s getting colder (I know they nest all year round here in central Florida but it’s rare to see them starting a family in early November.)
In early October I caught one of my neighborhood eagles eating something on top of the light pole. I’ve been seeing the couple often cruising around the neighborhood but I haven’t seen them hanging on the nest that they used last year yet.
Birds near the eagles nest include several loggerhead shrikes and some young starlings.
Looking out the window during Hurrincane Nicole, I could see a lot of ibis feeding in the newly formed pond.
Some of the regulars (wood stork and spoonbill) that hang out in the ditch along the golf course.
