I saw something fly in to the grasses next to the trail and stopped to take pics.
It appears to be a Green-Eyed Robber Fly also know as a bee killer. More info HERE!
And it definitely has some type of wasp as it's prey.
Do you see how it is hanging onto the blade of grass above it?
Astonishing!
It was very small but the orange color and green eyes really stood out!
And do you see the large grasshopper in the grasses ahead?
American Grasshopper
He really blends in to this tree too.
And this caterpillar stands out on the trail.
Don't step on him, Honey!
The Warblers are back on the Florida Trails.
Flocks of Pine Warblers and Palm Warblers were darting back and forth and even landing on the trail in front of us.
And isn't this a neat photo of a Red Shouldered Hawk that hubby took!
Thanks hubby! Sharp eyes!
Showy Rattlebox
It's been perfect weather for hiking and birding this week! Are you getting outside some too?
