I was glad to see the morning procession of three American Coots, as usual. There were some movements by these American Coots, several Green Herons and Nutrias in the wetlands. When I was watching their procession from the boardwalk, a small patch of golden brown Algae started moving slowly along the boardwalk. It was cute to see that a head of the turtle came up from the edge of the Algae, and the turtle submerged to deeper water leaving the patch of Algae behind.
Two Hummingbirds and a bee were busy collecting the honey from the Firebush. It seemed that the Hummingbirds prefer the honey of the Firebush. Maybe its honey is sweeter than other flowers.
With surprising speed, the young Sago Palm leaves were growing. They looked like lumps yesterday morning, but this morning, each lump became about two dozen young leaves, and each of them was spreading out its neatly folded tiny leaf. A small, bright green lizard was resting nearby the young leaves under the morning sun. It was a beautiful scene.
A bagworm was struggling to hide under the leaves on the middle of the concrete path not far from the Sago Palm. I thought that the bird knocked down the worm and some leaves on the path. It was about 1 ½ inches long, a pale brownish/greenish color, with long hairs. It’s sad to see that most of the tree leaves covered by the webs have turned brown and dried.
