We drove past Halpata Tastanaki Preserve while running an errand.
When we finished and made the turn around, the Jeep drove right into the gate at the Preserve.
It was impossible to drive past it twice in one day without stopping!
We didn't even get out of the vehicle but we saw so much.
I always encourage everyone that reads my blog to get out in nature and sometimes that means taking a drive to a park or preserve. And if you can't do that, maybe you can sit outside when the weather is nice or look out the window at bird feeders when it's not. Letting your mind relax and enjoy the outdoors is what's good for you!
Great Crested Flycatcher
American Kestrel (on the drive in)
All photos taken from inside the car!
Red Shouldered Hawk
He sees US now!
And another Kestrel on the drive out!
Time to FLY!
And guess what? Another year has flown by and it's my birthday this weekend!
And guess what my sweet hubby gave me for my birthday!
A Victrola record player!
I've been playing records and dancing and he's been singing! So don't peek in the windows and get skeeeered! We both still have a few of our old 45s!
I'm sure I'll be out on one of the Florida trails enjoying nature or at least taking a ride some place interesting.
Have a wonderful weekend!
