First sign of Spring!! Woo Hoo!! 

February 12

Not sure if I shared this guy/gal before?

He/She stops by almost every day for a snack

of peanuts and corn. :) I love birds! :)

November 26

I don't really like doing dishes, but I sure

do enjoy the view! 

November 20

Another from Monday morning. The steeple on Jacob's church can

fit four birds perfectly! (Imagine the view they have!!)

November 1

I put my "homegrown" sunflower seeds in the bird feeder.

I love that I can see the feeder from my kitchen window.

I'm learning a lot about birds. This is a Tufted Titmouse,

and sunflower seeds are their favorite! :)

October 21

Filling up! He stuffs so much into his mouth and 

then flies it over to another tree near the river.

So fun to watch! :)

July 29

Look! A hummingbird! :)

Last year, a robin made this nest, but no baby birds.

So glad to see little ones this year! :)

June 6

I'm going to guess this is a vulture?

So, it's probably a hawk?

I get them wrong all the time!

May 24

Oh, how I love blue jays! :)

(photo taken on 5/20...when the sun was out. Icky rainy day today!)

May 18

My feeder attracts birds of all sizes!

This was a first!! lol

April 25

I put things up on the ledge on my back porch to stop the doves from

nesting. Never knew the wrens would like it??

Reason # 29587 why I need a bigger zoom lens.

Just imagine how great this shot could've been! ;)

April 18

Have I ever mentioned that I'm always watching from my kitchen window?

(Should really take the screens out so I can get a clearer shot!)

January 27

Mom bought me a new bird feeder.

Looks like the birds like peanuts! :)

January 12

I'm "ducking" out of today's challenge and sharing a 

photo from a few days ago. I was too busy to get

my camera out today. I'm now remembering just

how hard this challenge can sometimes be. lol

May 2

This little bird sang the sweetest song!

(from 4/26/11)

March 13

Even though Mom won and found the first robin this year,

I still felt the need to share mine. lol

Spring is near!!!

February 14

Did I ever mention that I LOVE birds? :)

May 25

A little hard to see since they blend in with the rocks....

We had bird visitors at our little pond this morning.

Brad and I watched as the birds figured out that going to the waterfall was the best way to enjoy the water...until...one little bird decided to jump in! Needless to say, he wasn't a swimmer. I'd be scooping a dead bird out of the pond if we wouldn't have been watching. I had to put my camera down quickly (and carefully!) and get him out of the water. He thanked me in his own birdy way and once he was dry he left. I'm going to have to put something in the pond so that if any critter would fall in again, they'll have a way to get out.
