Planning Ahead
Thanks to the few rain days that we had, our plants are greener and are growing leaves at a faster rate now. I can see more flowers showing their beautiful petals here and there, it really looks like Spring! My lawn’s not green yet, it has a green tint only but I know that once it gets totally green then will grow like crazy, and that’s my cue, for keeping the landscaping looking good is my heavy work.
Lately, I’ve been searching for new bird hot spots on the internet, they’re many in the State of Florida and there’s one that is located in Alabama, for this one I’m tempted to take a 6 hour drive and check it out! I heard that is a good place for photography in general and has a bird preservation park.
Part of my other plans is another visit to Florida, possibly September, there some more locations I’ll like to check, I couldn’t do it during my last trip.

I find it’s always good to have something to look forward to and be planning. We are taking our first “real” vacation in 8 years – to Vermont in August – and I’ve been having so much enjoyment from researching and planning. Looking forward to your photos from your birding adventures!
Thanks Amy, it’s very similar to what I do. I like to plan ahead of doing or making a decision to do something. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
lovely photos.. bird watching is worth the drive!
Thank you Margo! Yes indeed! 🙂
Your site has helped me to be more aware of the avian wildlife here in So. Fla. Thank you.
Thank you G.! I’m happy to have helped you in any way. 🙂
I loved the field sparrow.
He’s a good looking fellow! Thanks Susan! 🙂
Go anywhere ! – just keep taking photos of birds and giving them to us. 😀
Yep! 🙂
A six hour drive? I hope that you find a lot of birds if you do go there.
That’s my hope too! But I’ll never know if I don’t go! 🙂
I love the field sparrow too. It has such a nice gentle expression! I hope your birding expeditions are a success.
Thank you Clare! 🙂
Look forward to seeing more of your discoveries. 🙂
