As you may already know, I get a lot of joy from seeing all our feathered friends out back, especially as I am not able to go too far afield lately. I am starting off with an American Goldfinch who managed to get a drink of water. The snow and ice were melting in the bird bath. I have put links on all the names of these birds if you would like to find out more information, and hopefully I am not repeating the same photos. I know you've seen the same birds at some point or another.

I am finishing off with another Eastern Bluebird, a male Northern Cardinal and a few House Finches on the same snow day. Our Christmas tree is showing on the right. I had to move fast to get them altogether, no time to frame it out of the picture.
You got beautiful sharp photos, with great detail! We have Flickers around here. They are the only ground eating woodpeckers. They dig for ants in our driveway. Lots of anthills here. Look at them when they fly, they are beautiful! I think my favorite photo is the cute Nuthatch with the nut in his beak.
ReplyDeleteThey do fill our hearts with joy, don't they! Thank you, D
