Comments (4)A gazebo, tall tree, and cranes. Got it.

Comments (6)Our pink trumpet tree (Tabebuia) is putting on its spring show now. The related yellow is, too, but because they don't play well together color-wise, they are kept separated by a house. :) [The photo below was only cropped, not enhanced, or otherwise 'shopped in any way--those vibrant colors were the real deal!]...See MoreI'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Tue Mar 22

Comments (10)jim_1 Zone 9A, we leave on 4/10. I will be glad to go, so hot here now. We are going to go to the Carolinas and go on part of the Blue Ridge Parkway, so will take a few more days to get home than usual. Might as well make it fun....See More

9 years agoI thought I remembered our guide saying they were Anhinga but looking closely these have curved tips at the end of their bills, so they are indeed cormorants.
Here are a couple of other bird images from that trip:

9 years agoI meant the earlier images that I posted were cormorants rather than anhingas. The ones on the boat are indeed pelicans, as are some of these:

9 years agoPrairie Rose, I have one other antler, so I guess I am starting a collection? LOL I'm not very artistic, so I will just be keeping them in their natural state. :)
Marcia, here is a weird looking bird I saw at the San Diego Zoo a few years ago. I have forgotten the poor bird's name.
It looks like something out of the Flintstones!!Jodi_SoCal
