Wow!
Yesterday, during a full sun – but pretty chilly day – I observed many Tree Swallows. I was fortunate to captured their amazing flight and relationships on film. These images turned out very interesting, not just because of the incredible subject matter. The nest… Continue Reading “Wow!”
They’re Looking At Houses!
I am absolutely thrill to see a Bluebird couple checking out a nest box. A few days ago I saw a male on the box, but not his mate. I thoroughly enjoy watching them “apartment hunting.” The male checks out a possible nest box.… Continue Reading “They’re Looking At Houses!”
I Don’t See You
Have you ever been so hungry that a woodpecker can crawl under your armpit and watch you eat, and you don’t even see it? This Fox Squirrel seemed less than interested in the Downy Woodpecker that literally hopped under his shoulder!
Red-Winged Blackbird

They’re Baaack!
They’re Back! I went outside today and heard a familiar chortle. I looked up to see a Purple Martin perched on the gourd tower. Real work has kept us busy and we haven’t replaced a few of the gourds that fell off during the… Continue Reading “They’re Baaack!”
Pretty Bird!
The last two days afforded me the opportunity to get outside and check out the early Spring Migration. I encountered a pair of Ring-neck ducks on the pond. I didn’t even know there was such a species. It was incredibly relaxing to sit and… Continue Reading “Pretty Bird!”
