A Hungry Waxwing

One morning this past week we were hiking early. The temperature was lower than it has been, but it was crisp and beautiful. As we appproached the banks of the Stillwater River, we saw a large numbrer of Cedar Waxwings having a feeding fest on the bugs. I shot these photos. I love this species.

Hummingbirds

We were out early one morning this week. The birds were extremely active and I was in my element. I was pleasantly surprised to see this Ruby-throated Hummingbird. What a treat. We do not see them often, but this one was just a few feet away from me. So cool.

The funny thing: the next two days, we saw more hummingbirds. Both of these days we saw them at diffferent locations. One was along the Miami River. We tried, but we didn't get photos.

Vireo

This bird looks a little larger than I expect but I think it's a Warbling Vireo. I photograhed it at Grand Lake St Marys. We played a game of hide-and-seek for a while, but I finally captured this photo.

Too Many: Only One

So many birds but only one photo. Yes, I don't really know how many birds I saw in this tree ... this was the only one I was able to photograph. Love this Tufted Titmouse.
