Hiding In The Trees

When I shot this photograph I thought I saw a aparrow. When I got home, I discovered it was a Carolina Wren. She was not easy to see or photograph. Love this bird.

Mr Ugly Is Back

If you have followed me here for long, you know I have often refered to Turkey Vultures as 'Mr. Ugly'. I guess I don't really dislike them, but I did find them ugly. The Black Vultures are not any more attractive. They are graceful flyers, but just not good looking.

This is the second one we have seen in the past week. Spring is right around the corner. I know there are going to be baby eagles in several nest near us any day now. I expect to see Red-winged blackbirds sometime in the next 3 weeks or so. I saw a Carolina Wren this week too. This wren does not migrate, but we rarely see them around here during the winter months.

Bring on spring!

Starlings Everywhere

Beauty Or 💩

Tell me what you think: I think geese are beautiful. I love to watch them fly in perfect formation. They land on water in concert with nature. Serioulsy cool but boy are the loud and they leave a mess (💩) on the trails.

What do you think? Beauty or 💩?

A Little Water

I love this photo. I could crop it for a better frame but I like it as is. Have a great weekend.
