Another common face with uncommon beauty - the lovely green anole . . . #wildandfree #green #reptile #inaturalist #color #texas #lizard #spring #relax #allgood . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #love #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful
The three-toed box turtles are making more local cameos now that spring is here (local = south-central US). Although the intentions might come from a good place, please avoid any temptation to assist seemingly lost turtles by returning them to a nearby pond or stream. These turtles typically spend most of their very long lives in a small area in or near a forest. When removed from those spaces, they will spend the remainder of their lives trying to find their homes once more. These amazing creatures can live for almost 100 years in the wild (incredible!) and that's way too long for anyone to have to feel homesick. Unless they are in immediate danger, it's best to just leave them alone. They are probably right where they want to be anyway. 🥰 . . . #wildandfree #turtle #reptile #inaturalist #color #texas #trees #spring #forest #allgood . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #love #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful
As we can't get on the road to explore the world beyond, we have opted to head to the yard to explore the world within. Having fun with macro shots is a nice diversion that provides a fascinating alternate look at the magnificent world of the small and incredible wonders. . . . #macro #dragonfly #cool #inaturalist #color #wonder #small . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #love #bee #flower #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful #insect
Many of us are homebound with families during this difficult time. If you or your children are missing having nature in your lives, we highly recommend that you give the iNaturalist app a try. It's free and fun! You will be amazed at the huge natural world that can be discovered in your immediate vicinity. For those of you who aren't dealing with the frustration of being stuck at home because you are directly combatting the dire challenges that face our world, we send our deepest gratitude to you and our fiercest prayers for you. Thank you for everything that you are doing to protect us and to keep our lives as normal as possible. The love and thankfulness that we feel for you is beyond measure. . . . . . #gratitude #thankful #fearless #hope #corona #angels #inaturalist . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #love #bee #flowers #flower #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful #insect
It's rather thorny out there, but nature always manages to take life's challenges in stride. Although I can't always say the same about myself, I'm grateful for the beautiful reminders. . . . . #ornitholic #gnatcatcher #fearless #hope . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #allaboutbirds #love #best_birds #birds #birding #birdwatching #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #birdnerds #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful
These lovely hummingbird visitors have been welcome distractions over the past couple of weeks at home. More feathered cuties are flying in each day, so put those feeders up! They are little bundles of joy that are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. ❤️ . . . #ornitholic #hummingbird #joy #hope . . . . #birdnerd #texasbirdnerd #dragondaydreamer #allaboutbirds #love #best_birds #birds #birding #birdwatching #photography #naturephotography #nature #angel #naturelovers #wildlifephotography #birdnerds #audubonsociety #wildlife #picoftheday #audubon #texaswildlife #discoverearth #animalplanet #natgeowild #beautiful
