If you come across a bird that is struck a window put it somewhere quiet and warm. If it doesn’t perk up then please find a wildlife rehab because it might be swelling in the brain or an eye ulcer.

“ I’m so pretty…. I’m so pretty.” This mandarin duck drake should not be in my yard. But isn’t he glorious? #wildlifephotography #birds #nature #Mandarinduck

A throwback when we first brought home, the kitten brothers from the SPCA. They were found in an area park that obviously somebody had abandoned them. #caturday #cats . Elliott and Oliver

Every day now there is a #greatblueheron and a belted kingfisher fishing the pond. These are through the window photos because they’re shy and cranky at the same time. But it looks like it’s some kind of prehistoric dinosaur walking through the greens. #birds #wildlifephotography #heron

Brown-belted #bumblebee on gray-head coneflower #wildflowers #macromonday #wildlifephotography #pollinators. This plant’s flowers fill in from bottom to top and bloom for a long time. Happy to have it in the wildflower garden.

This is really good information about how vaccines work and current information about #covid vaccines for the fall. We have not done a good job educating people on exactly how vaccines work with your immune system.

Just a boy in the ocean in Cape May. Get out and enjoy #nature while we still have it. Support #conservation efforts. Plant #wildflowers . Learn about the #wildlife including bees and butterflies in your own area. Pass down what you learn to the next generation.

Cheeky #bluejay taking a peanut. Frequently a Bluejay will come and clear out the feeder area by calling like a Cooper’s Hawk. Very clever birds. #birds #wildlifephotography #bird #corvids

This is a fifth instar monarch caterpillar. I startled it when I put clean milkweed in the tank and so it decided to play dead. They aren’t very palatable because of the toxins they get for milkweed but they’re not impervious to dangers #macromonday #monarch #vertebrate

The monarch butterfly eggs hatch in about five days into tiny first instar caterpillars. The monarch lays one egg per plant usually because they eat an awful lot. This tiny little white caterpillar with a black head turns around and eats the egg shell. #wildlifephotography #macromonday #monarch

I watch this monarch lay her eggs, which is usually one egg per milkweed, and I collected some eggs before they can be infected with something. You can see the little eggs and they hatch in five days. #monarchs #wildlifephotography #macro #invertebrates

“"Sadness is like a little bit of an emotional death but not a defeat if you can find a way to laugh about it. Because that laughter keeps you from having fear of it, and fear is the thing that keeps you turning to evil devices to save you from the sadness." -- Stephen Colbert #stephencobert

Surprised to see this fifth instar monarch cat. Usually the non-native European paper wasps get them. I’m going to take this guy in so that he or she makes it to butterflydom #monarch #invertibrates #wildlifephotography #nature

This very new book on oceans and narrated by Sir David Attenborough is amazing as is the 99-year-old Sir David. There is a documentary also. But you have to get the book and then listen to him narrate it #books #nature #oceans #booksonbluesky

Reading this author’s book on #fireflies . We may be the last generation to see fireflies. They are threatened due to light pollution, pesticides, and habitat loss. #insects
