Greens, blues, and wow.

I walk by this spot almost every day. I have taken hundreds of photos of birds in this area, mostly behind where I was standing when I took this photo. These trees, the grass, the now green pond, the clouds ... all of that rain this week left behind this lush green sceen. This one is worthy of a frame. I will be printing it.  

Speaking of which, I will be selling photos next Saturday in Sidney, Ohio. I am including a flyer for the event here. I hope to see you there:). If you are interested in a copy and cannot download it drop me a note and I will email it to you. My email is rick@rickcartwright.com.

More BO

 

I really love the bright color of the Baltimore Oriole. So, I read that the BO was given it’s name because the male’s colors resembeld the colors of the coat of Lord Baltimore. I don’t know. The bird is much more interesting.

Rain ... lots of rain.

Rain .. lots of rain. That is our current weather, and the forecast is for more rain.

I was able to get out and take a few photos anyway. My favorite from yesterday was this beautiful flowers. I love the details, including the drops of rain.

Eastern Bluebird on the hunt:)

I saw this Eastern Bluebird chasing a large bug ... it was really fun to watch. It was an acrobatic show. I guess the Bluebird saw me, because he stoppped and landed on this tree. There was two American Goldfinch in the same area, playing tag, or at least that is what it looked like. Very funny.

An elusive photo

I have taken several photos of this Nothern Flicker, including the one I posted on May 16. Every time I saw this bird, all I could get was a shot from his back side, like the one below. I finally was able to capture a better photo. 

He landed on this tree, and as soon as I took a step, he flew away. I was just in the right spot to take the photo from where I was standing, and then say good bye.
