Adventure to Landis Arboretum

Went to the local Arboretum with my aunt on Tuesday and was able to get my first decent wildlife shots of the year.

I definitely will be posting more of this Arboretum in the future, so there will probably be some history to go along with these photos at some point. But for now I am just throwing some pictures up.

Prothonotary Warbler

These little warblers get their name from the golden hooded robes the Roman Catholic clerks used to wear. 
Prothonotary warblers nest in tight cavities and tend to eat insects such as beetles, moths and butterflies. Since they are Neo-tropical migrants they travel from south and central America to the central and eastern parts on North America.

For more information on these lovely birdies check out Arkive's page on them. http://www.arkive.org/prothonotary-warbler/protonotaria-citrea/

Scheduling

I am giving myself a schedule so I can actually be more active on my sites. 

So as of now this will be my schedule: 

Wednesday and Friday: 

Update social media sites. This includes my personal websites, Twitter, Facebook, deviantArt, etc... 

Saturday:

deviantArt group Wildlife-Awareness. 

  

Eventually I would like to have a day to do art streaming and video game streaming.

But I will cross that bridge when it occurs.

Busy

I honestly forgot about my blogger until I was doing some updates on my website. I will try to be better about posting on to here. I have a lot of updates so there might be a bombardment if I don't forget that this is a thing again.

Trying to Get Back to the Swing of Things

Hey everyone, expect updates! That is all!
