It’s Been A While

It has been a while since we photographed a Northern Flicker. It was a fun hike and so many birds. I was really excited about this photo. Sadly, the lighting was not good for a couple of the photos. Love this Flicker.

I tried …

Yes, I tried. It was the first Baltimore Oriole we have seen this season. I followed him from tree to tree, but he avoided my camera succesfully for what seemed like an hour. This photo was the only one I managed to capture. It will not be the last Oriole we see this year, but it is a first.

Spring!!!

We saw this nesting robin while hiking this last week. Man, I love spring. It's a rebirth .. a new start. It makes me feel so alive. So thankful to be alive and enjoying nature. Have a great day.

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.
