Nice!! What area are you in?
Great video! I’ll be able to find warblers a lot easier now!
My favorite bird!
@@TheCatInTheHat6505 they are so fun to watch😄
💫🫶🏼🔆🫵💎🏆♻️♻️♻️🏝️🪅
It's hard to attract birds like the Great Crested Flycatcher, which is a rare bird in my area with the unnecessary background music. This video has the best variety and clarity of their calls. Any chance for an edited version without music?
I can do that. You can attract them in summer with a bird house. They are on of the few that will use it to nest. Otherwise you can only attract them adding things to your yard that would draw flying insects that would make flycatchers want to come to your yard.
We had a large population of Indigo Buntings at a wetland area off the Potomac river this year. They suddenly disappeared on Monday, August 20 and haven't been heard or seen since. Isn't this a bit early for migration?
Oh birds are already migrating this year quite early. There are already reports of planted buntings in south Fl.
happy birding
😉❤️
I think I had a bunch of these birds dive bomb me and my church friends outside the church. They were flying around catching insects in the air. I'm in touch with a rehabber who needs my help with birds and I have skills to show her all about birds. I've performed many techniques on pet birds and rehabilitated a male yellow bellied sapsucker all by myself and released Twiggy after 3 days of feeding and care until he was strong enough to be released back into the wild. He hung around and would talk to me reee he'd say and poke his head around the tree and look at me. He got really fat, too from thriving in the wild. Well, he was the appropriate weight after several days of being released. I will have to hunt for the pictures and video I had taken of him in captivity. I released him Christmas day 2011 and said here's a birthday to Jesus my king and lord. He must've been happy with the gift of the bird bc when I moved out on my own, I heard one at my window but it wasn't Twiggy. But same species. I fed Twiggy crickets, baby beef Gerber food like worm patte and veggies of baby food, syrup, etc. And my mom snapped a picture of me and Twiggy and he was lapping up food from a bowl perched on the rim of the bowl. Such a hardy bird. If inever find the pictures at the old house in my old bedroom and video, I'm going to send them in to the news so everyone can see him and enjoy a close up and care of the YBSS. That's short term for his species of bird. He let me get near him in a tree and I reached out to touch him and he flew away, which I wanted to make sure he was finally a wild bird again. My dad said he was weak when my cousin had picked him up 30 minutes from where I lived at her place of work. She could have left him alone and maybe the parents would have fed him on the ground, but he looked like he had been trying to learn how to fly. We had pet birds to keep him company and I put him in a dog carrier and my dad had made a perch for him and my dad said be very quiet, he's asleep on the perch. I fed him around the clock getting up earlier to feed our birds and Twiggy too.
What a great rescue story! So wonderful to help one of Gods creatures 🥰🙏🏼
Iguanas are essentially the goats of lizards
Greatest of all time😉😂
I am 8 years old and I see these in our garden in late summer and fall! We have lots of caterpillars like that at our house and now I know what that caterpillar turns into! Thank you!
Awww that’s so cool! Butterflies are so fun to watch them grow up😍
SO CUTE!!
A Chuck-Wills-Widow Nightjar .. what a find 🪶💕 Very cool ✨️
Was a very exciting find! I’m wondering if it will return next year!
Currently in Florida as Debby is hitting. I just looked this up because I had to take my dog out to pee and saw a gang of these bad boys prowling the streets not giving a f***. They were being followed by some ducks too! 😂 So, considering that’s what brought me here, it say it’s true. 😅
That’s hilarious 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEEEE NIGHTHAWKS THEY ARE THE CUTEST BIRDS EVER. I adore hearing their calls and cant help but smile!!!
I welcome their return every summer❤️ I love watching them at dusk!
Great video! Probably I missed some information. My son growing these butterflies from caterpillar to butterfly. We have passion vines at home (inside). Caterpillars look happy with that. But when they come out we try to feed them with sugar water, pineapple, orange, and banana. They just became weak after 3-4 days, stopped flying and ..... This happened with just two of them for now. At this moment we have 5 chrysalises and 6 small caterpillars. How do we have to feed them and on what day release them? Thank you so much in advance.
Ide provide flowers for nectar once their wings are dry set them free to forage for nectar ❤️ they will do just fine.
I found a baby dose not have tail feathers yet what do I do
@@DebbieConnell-ub7vo is it still fuzzy? If it’s still fuzzy try to put it back in the nest. If you can’t find the nest take it to your local wildlife rehab center. Call them and they will give you instructions.
Where the robbins will shelter when they leave the nest?
@@geoffreyyu7101 robins are often seen foraging on the ground or in trees with fruits/berries.
@@FloridaKeysBirding Thank you
they are like big, graceful swifts
Yes!! I love watching them glide in the sky!
I love my mockingbird. I made him a feeding perch and he's there several times a day. He follows me every where.. we have been friends for about 3 and half yrs and he would brings his babies to feed.
aww so sweet!!
Aloha, Mitchelle, we live on the East side of Oahu. Our cardinals have 2 fledglings. I have a video I can send you if you would like. I noticed the mom leaving them to fend for themselves at the bird feeder. We have little finches who scatter the sunflower seeds and don't seem to eat them. It's very annoying. The cardinals will eat at the feeder 2 weeks, and the finches knock the seeds all out in a couple of hours. Very annoying. Thank you for the video. Louisa
Murrell's inlet at Indian wells condos! Have been seeing two of these wanted to know what they were! Thank you. From south Carolina!
They are such cool raptors to watch!
I use the Merlin bird app to identify the birds in my yard
Very cool! We get them during migration and in the Everglades during winter generally. I love the Merlin app for ID!
I've had one recently in North Central Florida.
I have a nest on my porch and have watched 4 broods so far. They’re so fascinating
So cool! We don’t get them this far very often but more in central Florida.
Thank you so much! I needed this video. I found a baby mockingbird in my yard and wasn’t sure what to do. I saw its’ parents hovering over but was not sure what was going on. This video was educational and fun to way. Thanks again! ❤
yw!! :) I am glad it was helpful! Sometimes we see babies, and arent sure how we can help, or if we need to help.
That's cool how you see so many during their migration! We're super lucky in a different way, to have one pair nesting right in our front yard. ua-cam.com/video/_ZEP4a2qtVw/v-deo.html
We live in Vermont, where they are among the latest birds to return in the spring (middle of May) and when we see more than one male at a time there is always an intense battle. Our pair have apparently been nesting in the same exact spot for at least three years. This year's nest had four eggs in it, and as of today two of them are not eggs anymore - they are the most fragile looking infants I have ever seen.
It’s so awesome you get them for breeding season! We miss out on that🫤
Querequeque actual common name of Antiliean nighthawk
I had one show up here in Toledo this morning. It's been singing all day. I've been here for 13 years and never had one before. Proof positive that converting close to an acre back to a native prairie works. Build it and they will come!
Native plants species are so important to attract wildlife
Oh yes if you build it they will come!!😊 I did a huge garden project to attract wildlife and it has so far been a success!
Thank you for this informative video! I just identified 3 mockingbird fledglings in my rose bush in Louisiana and needed more info on them. Great video.
So glad you found my video and you were able get some more info on their fledglings! They are such little cutie patooties ❤️
I believe you heard it!
I definitely did hear it 😄😄😉😉😉 it was the craziest experience ever seeing and hearing that fallout that night 😎
During summer, don’t forget to give them water to drink, not just food. Our mockingbirds drink more than they eat in summer.
I have noticed mockingbirds visit my bird bath and get water quite frequently as well!
We have a mockingbird couple in our front yard. They dive bomb us when we get too close to their nest. They are very vocal and sing and chirp all day long.
These guys are so funny to watch! They have so much personality!
Great video I love green cay!
Yes it’s a great birding spot!
I am in Ontario Canada and saw him a few days ago…
Interesting that there get up that’s far north!
I live in southeast Oklahoma and get an annual visit from kites every spring
Migration time? I get them spring and fall usually ❤️ they nest a little north of me in summer.
Love the mockingbird!
Awesome. .thank you ❤❤❤❤
Great video on the summer tanager. There has been one around here recently. Many times he is singing nearby...but always just out of sight. Really hoping to get a good look at him soon.
Such a beautiful bird! I hope you get some pics!
They do look like a tiny parrot/escaped pet - I'm glad you said it because I've always thought that. Right out of the crayon box SO true! I have sooo many of these around this time of year...so fun to listen to....but gosh they're so tiny they're hard to for me to locate in the trees. The males really do fuss with eachother. Thanks for a great bunting video!
Thanks!! Mine are all gone for summer but will return usually around October November ❤️ and yes they look just like a crayon box 😄😄😄
I have anesting pair in my yard ,,they are very tolerant of me 😂😂😂,, they nester in my bush and were succesful the fist set in march,,, they try 2 more times but failed,,,they were feeding the babies suet from my woodpecker feeder,,, they always disappear aFterdone with nesting 😮😮 see you next spring mr mockingbird bird ❤❤❤❤
I like them. Especially in the evening, when all else is quiet.
Definitely I like watching them with their babies ❤️
How do animals do so well in bougainvillea? I see lizards and birds among those thorns, that never seem to poke them!
I always wonder the same thing!
I think it bothers them, but it is also a protection for them, so it is something they tolerate.
Thanks Michelle!
Mocking birds stay at the far end of my lawn- pecking at insects. I don’t see them going for the nuts and berries in the bowls.
I’ve notice in winter mine grab raisins, and in summer they eat those little red seeds from the bitter melon vine.
@@FloridaKeysBirding That’s helpful! Is bitter melon the annual vine with little squash type flowers?
Michelle! Excitement with the flycatchers! A baby flew out of the nest, which caused the parents to follow it in the bamboo and fight off the jays that tried to get close. I saw both flycatchers tumbling through the air with the blue jay. They were gone about 10 minutes while I stood about 8 feet below the baby. I could also hear another baby in the nest! When they came back (without the jay), they sat with the baby and I went into the house. 5 minutes later they were gone, all was quiet . It’s was getting dark. I hope they are all in the tree nest!
@@cherylj7460 yes that’s what mine look like. It’s super invasive here in south Florida it takes over! But the birds love those red seeds it makes!
@@cherylj7460 I bet they are protecting that baby! I’ve heard blue jays can be predatory to babies and eggs.
Just saw one on my railing in my backyard. I am so thankful for this educational video.
Thanks so much! I’m so glad it was helpful ❤️☺️
I have an owl nesting box and today saw a couple of this bird bringing material ❤❤❤ i have seem them but not sure how tolerant of humans they are...i am in orlando
That’s so awesome! You’ll have to let me know if you get babies! I’ve got screech owls that don’t seem to like people too Much 😄
been seeing many here in tampa/st. pete lately, in the last memorial day week, could it be a later migration perhaps due to the crazy cold fronts we had this year?
Swallow tailed kites start migrating very early as early as February, but some do show up late! Also you may be seeing some more around your area because maybe they looking for a nesting site. I saw one in late April near tampa when I was visiting ft desoto.
How long do the parents feed the fledging for? The baby has been fledging for about a week but he still squirms for food 😊?
They will beg for food as long as possible until parents make them look for their own. Similar to our own children😂
Thanks for the great video! I just observed a baby mocking bird falling/flying out of the nest, and he was the second of two. Oh how busy those two parents became keeping track of and feeding two. Your video reassured me that at this stage of no or little flight, they’ve “got it” and are figuring it out. Your presentation was informative and delightful!
So great to hear! Yes it can definitely be distressing to see a baby bird falling and wondering if they will be ok or need help! But in this case the parents are almost always close by watching that baby❤️
The laughing gull is so funny😂
