I love JESUS! I'm a 7th-generation Florida native, dyed-in-the-wool Southron belle. I just recently dusted off my genealogy notes and, thanks to a long-lost relative, nearly doubled the details. We started home schooling when only 'outlaws' did it and still enjoy a daily quest for knowledge. These days, the family spends a lot of time birding, butterflying, spending as much time in 'the woods' as possible while they're still here.
Sophie: you must be having a blast with that new camera ... and you have to love being so convenient to water sources. Beautiful birds and critters... thanks for sharing. Meems
SwampAngel, it's some marshery rodent. I just call them mouses. Unless they're really large, then they're rats. 8-}
FC, yep, the rails have been unusually spottable this year. (Or I'm that much more observant.) I should have added captions before I scheduled it to post. The rodent... uuuhhhh... they're definitely not my forte.
Meems, I'm still getting to know the ins and outs of the camera. In my seniorial years, I seem to have become even more 'visual' than ever and actually reading the instructions is a royal pain. (And I'm already lusting after another one. LOL!)
I occasionally (rarely) THINK about living somewhere else, but I can't begin to imagine surviving without the Gulf nearby.
Aunty Belle, thanks ever so for stopping by! So tickled you're enjoying my wanderings. I'm in the Big Bend area... within day trip distance from the capital. 8-]

Aw, beautiful! What is the mammal? I feel really stupid because I can't ID it, but it's cute!
I love willets.
Is that one shot a marsh hen? Lucky you.
So many rodents in a marsh ... cotton rat? rare saltmarsh vole?

Enjoyed yore blog, SophieMae
FC, I was pretty sure you felt the same.
