That's horrendous. Insurance companies are run by the scum of the earth.

The panhandle trail treated us well this morning with some decent photos and video of bobolink, meadowlark, and grasshopper sparrows. Henslow's sparrows sang for us, but no appearance. We'll be back for more before long! #birds #bobolink #grasshoppersparrow #Easternmeadowlark 🪶 @thepanhandletrail

Ecco the adult male peregrine at the cathedral of learning sits on top of the nest rail watching his chicks work up the courage to test out their wings. Two chicks are visible sticking their heads out of a flower shaped cut out in the nest rail.Ecco the adult male peregrine at the cathedral of learning sits on top of the nest rail watching his chicks work up the courage to test out their wings.

Miss Tootsie put up a valiant effort this week to recover from a serious medical event, but she crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday morning. She was the sweetest gentle soul, and we will miss her dearly. 💔

Got my first look at Eastern whip-poor-wills yesterday on the boardwalk at Magee Marsh. These two were absolute stars! I waited for my turn to photograph them both. #mageemarsh #easternwhippoorwill #nightjar #birds 🪶

Some dreamy flower scenes
White azaleas seeming to give a gentle glow in evening lightA small stem of bluebell flowers up close the background is a hazy dark green color and hazy purple towards the left side of the photo where more bluebells are standing in the background A dandelion that has gone to seed with the glow from sunset shining through its white fluff. The flower is gently refracting the light to pink, yellow, and blue-green.A sea of pink azaleas, most of the flowers are slightly hazy and shaded except for a patch of flowers at the center middle ground of the photo that are in focus and seem to be slightly glowing in the evening light.

Yesterday I got to add this rufous hummingbird to my life list thanks to friends Kate St. John and Ron Burkert. Hope you enjoy him as much as I did. #rufoushummingbird #birds #womenphotographers #womenbirders

This green heron was so obliging even despite some harassment from a juvenile nearby. Stalking fish requires some intense concentration. This moment looks to be right before a strike. #greenheron #wadingbirds #birds #womenwhobird #womenphotographers 🪶

It's not everyday that you get to see a barred owl family, especially one with five fledglings. This is a Frick Park experience that I will never forget. #frickpark #birds #barredowl #fledglings #womenphotographers

My lifer black tern photographed in Imperial, Pennsylvania. What a beauty!!! The contrast from the head to tail and very dark face make this a tricky subject to photograph. Thankfully it posed in the cut grass for a bit! #birds #springmigration2025 #blacktern #womenphotographers

Doesn't look like enough yellow on the breast for a magnolia, but sometimes the color is washed out in the shade of the leaves.

Sharp looking bird! The cedar waxwing's tail color can change a bit depending on their diet from yellow to orange. 🪶 #springmigration2025 #cedarwaxwing #womenphotographers

Male scarlet tanagers are so red they will mess with your camera, but working on getting the right exposure is well worth the effort! 🪶 #scarlettanager #springmigration2025 #womenphotographers

This looks better for a bullock's oriole not a Baltimore. Makes better sense for California as well.
