Great pictures everyone. Thanks for sharing.

Although, the first one of the Cooper's Hawk sitting on the bird feeder still has me laughing- that would significantly limit your backyard bird watching.

I have a pet goose (Angus) who lost his mate this past year. He buddied up to the Canada geese this spring and was happy, but now his group has migrated and he's left with my ducks (apparently that's like being left with your kid brother.) Any time anything flies over he honks and screeches and I guess is screaming, "I have a pond, come party!" I went to put the chickens to bed at dusk last night and Angus had a whole pond full of Canada geese, a great blue heron, one of the small herons, and a wood stork in attendance at his soiree. Crazy bird.

We went on a field trip to down town Savannah, Georgia with my master gardener class on Saturday and saw this little guy on a Tulip Poplar.
