Good looking oranges.

#oranges #caracara

Taas on se aika vuodesta kun ruokaympyrä tulee täydeksi jo hedelmillä, eikä tarvitse auringonlaskun jälkeen lähteä saalistamaan. #Veriappelsiini #Tarocco on ainakin tässä vaiheessa satokautta parempaa kuin #puoliveriappelsiini #CaraCara, vaikka nimistään huolimatta puoliverinen on ulkonäöltään verisempi. Molemmat ovat kuitenkin selvästi luokassa #herkullinen.

Saw a #caracara crashing a #vulture picnic today.

@Rhizae Love the #caracara.

I guess I'll try another thread(made by replying to the first one) and see how it works: 11/07/2021 (that's 2021!)* Part 1* At Brazos Bend State Park, Crested Caracara flew in from the North, and landed in a tree on the 40-Acre Lake Trail. 5 minutes later, it took off and flew North. I noticed another Red-Shouldered Hawk perched at the top of a small, bare tree. The images are taken from photos and video clips I shot at the time. The wonderful yellow flowers are probably Swamp Sunflowers. The Caracara returned from the North, so I started shooting video. The Caracara got closer ,then turned while it was overhead, circled back out, turned again. And swerved and flew right at the hawk! It didn't hit the hawk, but passed so close that it could have. This was the start....
This 7-minute video collects my capture of these events. http://www.rickubis.com/rick/caracaras110721.mp4 and more pictures of this event and

And here are some #BirdsOfPrey. The #caracara is my first (and so far, only) painting done fully in #gouache, and is based on an education bird (injured/non-releasable) at a raptor rehabilitation facility. The other two are #falconry birds painted in #watercolor.
