Black And White ..

This warbler did not want to stay put. I guess allowing me to capture a great photo was not a priority for him.

This is a Black-and-white Warbler. I have always thought they were a beautiful bird, even if they are all black and white.

Almost Missed Her

While we were hiking this past weekend I saw a bird out of the corner of my eye. It flew toward an area where I did not expect to be able to see, never mind photograph anything. We were about to warp up our hike anyway so I figured I would just take a closer look. What I saw was this beautiful female Northern Cardinal. It make the entire hike near perfect.

A First?

I believe this is a 1st year immature male Summer Tanager. I have photographed a few Scarlet Tanagers near the same location where we spotted this one but this is a first for me.

The summer tanager range is just into this part of Ohio. I could be incorrect but I really believe that is what this is. It was a surprise find.

Red Heads

These red-heads are actaully Red-bellied Woodpeckers. We have heard so many of them lately but it has been rare to find and then photograph one. The top one would climb a few inches, stop and peck at the wood, then repeat. I guess he was too engaged in the hunt to notice me.

Black And Gold

We finally had some warmer weather this week. Before it returned to the cold weather again, we had a great hike. I was surpirsed at how many American Goldfinch we saw. This is just a couple of the photos we snapped. What a beautiful bird.
