DAILY PICS VOL. 48

RbW - hardly ever get to take a pic

and Downy

Ah Lily!! The YRW is such a cutie pie!

Pelle!!!! Guess what!!
The Orange-crowned Warblers are back!!! They found the little pond and decided to take a nice warm bath!! I am beside myself here!!

Just moments ago:

I clean this thing twice a day what with all the leaves falling...


Orange-crowned Warbler before bath...

Last one for now........


Can y'all see me grinning :-)))))

Great pics everyone!

Welcome Jo11, Love the RBN pic. Looks like a great set-up.

Deb, the bathtime pics are wonderful, especially the last one.

We're having a thaw here! It will get up to 40 today and maybe 60 by tuesday! woohoo!

Wonderful pics sybil and debnes!

So glad your Orange-crowned Warblers are back debnes!

Shan I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather!

Just now got a few pics of the White-breasted Nuthatch at Peanut Silo.

Turned this pic sideways just to be different.

Darn I reached my edit limit. :-) Thats a male White-breasted Nuthatch.

For those that asked about the bird bath in the nuthatch photo. The bird bath is heated and works well -- so far down to 10 below. The rock in the middle has a motor and the water flows over it. The birds love to drink out of the top.

DMurray you should call that pic "Buh bye". *rofl*

I got a couple of good ones of a cute little Titmouse this morning. Is it a Tufted?

And another of the same Titmouse. Which photo do you like better? I couldn't decide so I'm posting both.

If he wasn't a Tufted Titmouse to begin with, he surely is here. The wind was giving him an extra tuft, lol.

And here's the guy who made me run in for the camera. He was just singing his little heart out at the top of the tree. But unfortunately, this pic either shows the limits of my camera or the limits of my photography skills.

Nice pictures everyone, only e or 3 birds on here I get to see, around here. Enjoy everyones post.

This is a Junco, It was taken toward the end of the storm a few days ago. You can still see some snow falling.

Nice pics guys!

This isn't a great pic but I manged to get one shot of the Turkey Vulture in flight.

Debnes I love your warbler pics!! I feel like I am in the water right with them!! I have never seen these before. Thanks for posting them!

Thats a really nice one of the turkey vulture Pell. Is this with that new 500mm lens? It came out really close looking!

Hi Lily, No thats w/ the old camera.

Great pictures everyone!
Just to give you a small idea as to how many cardinals I have, here's a shot with some waiting for the feeder in the back yard. Not the best, but ya can count the red dots. I think I counted 8. :)

the turkeys are still strutting around....

Cardinal and Red Bellied Woodpecker...

From Arizona.
Woodpecker that "hangs out" in my Organ Pipe Cactus

Same guy

Cactus Wren

A Mock, a Thrasher and a Wren
(sorry the focus is off )

This Kestral was having fun in the wind today.. going back and forth between a field and a church... Closest I could get.. about 100+ ft.

Thrashers. They are so destructive in my garden.

Woodpecker again.

Great assortment Aguane!! Sweet Wren and Thrasher!

I'm thinking the bugs and worms the Thrasher is harvesting are more destructive than the Thrasher. I have them here too.


Just one more of the Kestral, a tad bit clearer...

A few male Ring-necked Ducks ..... photo taken yesterday.

Great pics all!

Hey, who you watching. Looks like another young blackbird further along, surely not!

A Blue Tit's gotta warm itself when there's sun.

Great shots everyone!

Love your birds Aquane! Looks like a Gila Woodpecker.

debnes, love that second American Kestrel pic!

Linth, Beautiful pic of the Ring-necked Ducks!

Beautiful Blackbird wallaby!

Nice Blue Tit pic too!
