The official polling place associated with BirdingPI.com HQ recently moved to the Asbury Woods Nature Center, for unknown reasons. (True story.) And what better to do on US general election day (with sunny skies & near-high temps) than enjoy nature, even if only briefly? (Plus bird photography, of course.) First, a nice sighting of Red-tailed Hawk in the woods:
Saw American Crows and Blue Jays flying here and there, but the star of the day was Tufted Titmouse, at least several, shown here mostly with nice background lighting effects:
Finally, at last, it took all fall to get a couple decent shots of male White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Wait for it…
Never gets old.
Happy Monday! And for those in the US, happy Veteran’s Day – thank you to those who served!
Even going to the poles (voting), our Team Leader finds animals waiting to be photographed! The buck is really beautiful!
