Known individual. Can't seem to find the option to select this bird.
Cardinal getting territorial with itself in this mirror. It was doing the same thing last week too. It spends a not-insignificant amount of time battling itself.

Lydia C. told me about this wonderful project coordinated by the Miami Blue Chapter of NABA and the City of Coral Gables. For now it's a no-mow zone and is already attracting many insects. The weather today was mostly cloudy so there maybe weren't as many insects as when the sun is out but there were still many to see! More info about this site:

This was observed falling from the canopy in a slow circular motion (about a 1 meter diameter circle). The two halves in the picture here connected together until it landed. We were told by a Waorani that it was a parasite, but don't think so.

Los gatos que publicamos acá lo hacemos a manera de denuncia, por la cantidad que vemos deambulando libremente en espacios públicos y zonas de reserva, causando enormes daños a la fauna silvestre residente.
