Nest kind of day

There’s no doubt that summer has arrived on Sanibel. The day started out hot and humid. This time of year, the photo opportunities aren’t as plentiful as when the migratory birds are here. However, having the nesting birds around are a plus for now!

Any parent can identify the need for a quick nap, while the kids have been fed and also napping. See their little fuzzy heads in the nest.

When your honey sends you out for building supplies and you realize there are cameras everywhere!

But, it’s all worth it when she approves of the purchase.

Making yourself into an umbrella to keep the kids cool.

Whew! It’s hard work being a good parent.

That look you have when you know a secret that no one else knows!

The Green Heron below was making some pretty calls, maybe to a mate?

The gator was waiting for us by Indigo Trail again this morning.

The Little Blue Heron below has some of the prettiest markings I’ve seen on blue heron moving from the white phase to the blue phase.

I had the hardest time getting a photo of this cardinal in a tree in our yard. They are so camera shy.
