204 BIRDING WITH ERIKA


We went birding in the property beside the Garden of the Groves. This is a paint brush flower and if you look closely a Yellow Bellied Sapsucker just behind it camouflaged in the bushes.



Erika Gates is the woman with the hat.  She is a renowned birder in the Bahamas.


Wild morning glories.













Two types of hibiscus.



We all received a certificate for the number of species of birds we have seen on Grand Bahama.  Erika gave out the certificates.


I could say I saw 64 species.  A lot of them came from the Christmas Bird Count the year before.
