My oldest daughter and I just love dragonflies

It never ceases to amaze me how varied their color spectrum is!

Not a showy beauty, but they have the prettiest song. And, though they are shy, I once had a close encounter with one while hiking. It still stands out in my mind as one of those amazing life experiences

I see this sort of hawk nearly daily here. It's labeled as a red-tailed hawk but I know that it isn't. There are so many different species of hawk in NC! I'm amazed and frequently looking up when I should be driving lol

Flocks and flocks of wild geese have returned to the fields, nearby.
I love how they talk to each other as they take flight to the skies.

They look great but if you're planning to walk out into those fields for a closer look...wear hip-waders...I think you know what I mean.

wish I'd watched the video before posting ... your line was funny. Now I realise that bird shit maybe awful but the en mass squawking, screeching, flapping may be worse...Bless their little fowl souls.
