A Cat?

I have heard several Gray Catbirds when we have been hiking this spring but I have not been able to get a good photo. Teresa saw this one and while we both captured a few photos, mine were less than good. Teresa captured this photo and it is great.

Butterfly Time

Wow, I love this photo. We saw our first Viceroy Butterfly of the season this past Sunday but this photo really excited me. It is beautiful. {Maintain control, Rick} ..

I Guess He Needed A Break

It is rare that we see a Tree Swallow this close and not flying around. They have amazing sills in the air. In the Wikipedia entry they refers to them as 'aerial insectivore'. They are so fun to just watch fly.

Scarlet And Black

I posted a photo of the female Scarlet Tanager a few days ago. This is the male. He would not give me a good look for the photo but this is not too bad.

Another First

This was the frist time I have photographed a Prairie Warbler. I had no idea they came into this part of Ohio. In fact, when I look at the range for this bird, it really cuts off south of our location. When I heard him, I knew if was someting different. It is very unique. I used the app I discussed recretly and identifyed it while we contined to try and loccate him. Teresa spoted him in a tree, hanging out over the trail. I contined to sing his special tune while we captured a few photos. Made my day.
