Fall birding is my favorite time of year! Many beautiful birds are making their way to their Wintering grounds, and we are lucky enough to get to see them! Lets take a look at some of these amazing birds as they continue on their journey South.
A Tennessee warbler in a Locust tree active anting. Active anting is the process of when birds will grab an ant (in this case an Allegheny mound ant) squeeze the ant, and then rub the ant on their body. When the ant is squeezed it releases formic acid. You can actually see the formic acid spraying out of the ants in this footage.
