Nice start to the thread, duc. I always like to see the Cedar Waxwings.

Like your waterfowl pics, burn. I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of them to our neck of the woods.

Met, good shots of the American Coot.

Rose, excellent bluebird photos and Red-bellied Woodpecker.

Pelle, nice window shot of the Coopers hawk.

This morning, I looked out my bedroom window and wondered what is that sitting at my pool. I finally realized it was a Great Blue Heron sitting on the edge of my pool with his head tucked in. I grabbed my camera, went downstairs and slowly opened the sliding glass doors. That disturbed him enough that he raised his head.

I have never had that happen before. I have had Mallards land in the water on the top of my pool cover so with all of the rain that may have attracted him ...... as well as a plastic Great Blue Heron sitting in an adjacent garden ???

With all of the rain, that's the extent of my birding for the day !!!
