I do not capture very many photos of swallows, but this is a funny shot. It was hot and the sun did not do me any favors for this shot, but that mouth .. wow.

I totally missed it. I did capture a photo from some 100 yards, but Teresa saw this Ruby-throated Hummingbird when she was much closer. This is a photo she took while he was pitched atop this tree.
I have seen a couple, but have not been in a good place to capture a great photo. She was in the right spot, at the right time.

We are in prime of the American Goldfinch season. They are nesting, and very active.
This guy parked at just the right spot to allow me to capture this very cool photo. So much great depth, and a beautiful bird.

This is a Yellow-billed Cuckoo. I think this is the first time I have photographed a Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
This bird feeds mainly on hairy caterpillars and cicadas. Sounds so yummy. I mean, they eat other incects as well as bird eggs, snails, and small vertebrates (frogs and lizards). They do consume some berries as well. Interesting diet.

This flycatcher is called an Eastern Wood-Pewee. It is a small flycatcher with a grey-olive upper-part and pale gray underpart. Any bird that can catch a fly is a cool, fast bird.
