Guinea in the Grass

A guinea fowl wanders through the grass on our farm in Grays Chapel, North Carolina.
Plover
I walked out into the newly planted part of our garden and ran into a plover, a small wading-type bird. The poor thing was obviously hurt, for it flapped it’s damaged wing and called out in pain. All of this was a hoax of course, as the bird did everything in it’s power to lure me away from four small eggs camouflaged in the recently planted soil. I marked the spot and we’ll work around the nest till the eggs hatch and the young scurry away.

Out the Window on a Snowy Day
We had an unusual Christmas in North Carolina this year in that we actually had a white one. Snow fell late on Christmas Day and into the next. The views from the windows of my house were quite wonderful.

Snow Bird

I don’t often shoot a lot of wild-life and birds, however, a small Titmouse in the buttterfly bush outside of our den window during last weekend’s snow caught my attention. Our cats were interested as well, but no blood was spilled.
