Who you lookin’ at!


Set your clocks back one hour if you forgot last night.

This friendly resident likes to sit behind the Okeechobee guard post and watch traffic zipping by on both sides.

Swallow-Tailed Kite


First one I ever saw - large elegant bird in CV yesterday. Graceful black and white swooping around - Hawk and Eagle, family wingspan over 4'. The more mature the bird, the longer the V tail. It stopped by for lunch, 2 baby mockingbirds and 2 lizards. (They also eat large insects and snakes). I was looking forward to watching the mockingbirds grow in the nest in my orange tree (sigh).
