Love this Blue

We have seen a large number of Eastern Bluebirds this spring. Not too many females, although I know they are there, I am just not seeing them. Their blue is so bright. Love this bird!

A Different Tune .. a Different Songbird!

This is a White-crowned Sparrow. I have seen a lot of different species of sparrow recently, but I don’t remember ever photographing one of these. They are cool looking, and sing beautifully.

Close to home?

I capture this photo of a Tufted Titmouse while we were hiking earlier this week. This bird is very integrating. They tend to live their entire life in a very small geographic area, and they do not migrate. I saw one about 8 weeks ago in very cold weather. That is nuts.

Nature .. yes, always interesting.

Bug Hunting

We saw this Downey Woodpecker earlier this week while hiking Maple Ridge. She was dancing her way up and down the trees, looking for bugs to eat. It was cute.

It Was a Long Flight

This is an Eastern Phoebe. They are a small flycatcher. We saw several of them while hiking at Maple Woods, but this is the best photo I was able to capture.

They migrate from the ohio valley, all the way to the Gulf coasts. This bird had a long trip.
