Summers can be slow for birding, but these hummers kept us busy.
If anyone hasnt checked out JC Raulston Arboretum, please do if you are a plant lover www.instagram.com/ram.krishnan.clicks

Two of these beautiful Swallow tailed Kites have made a rare appearance in East Raleigh, where they are hanging around with about a dozen Mississippi Kites.
Everyone knows about sunflowers, but there is a zinnia field in dix hill which is looking absolutely gorgeous. Downhill from daddy troll. You will enter through Boyland entrance from western.
Had a chuckle when I saw this rented bike parked on the median of six forks rd over 440. Some one to park it there is just insane and hilarious
I just love this.

early morning fighting through mosquito swarm.
Handheld I think was a Nikon D750, the low light monster. Sigma 150-600
Do visit the Dorothea dix sunflower field in the next couple of weeks. Wonderful 5 acre field. One advice. go around 7 am or 7 pm. There is no shade and it is hot.
Right now go for the flowers. In couple of weeks, you can go back for the birds as the fiches and buntings come in to feed on the sunflowers.
Another fact is that future plan holds for this to be converted to a soccer field, so enjoy it while it lasts.

If you are a nature lover/ bird lover, do consider visiting Sylvan Heights Bird park at Scotland Neck , just off Rocky mount.
Amazing variety of birds, from all over the world. Here is a sample
Too much Backlight , but the painted bunting landed close enough.
Painted Bunting
Indigo Bunting
Cardinal

Lighting wasnt perfect. But did get a close look at the Painted bunting at Dix field.
Go before 7:30 AM or after 7 pm, due to the ongoing heat wave
