Our neighborhood Red Shoulder Hawk being dive bombed by a mockingbird.
Nice hosta there too burn, lol, we all seem to have baby birds around now.
Brave bird bsharf!
Yesterday afternoon the Wood Pigeon looked very pleased to find some nesting material. It must have been the wrong size, it was dropped again!
It went strutting off in disgust!
Last night she was feeding on the grass.
And today she found the right size nesting material!
Don't know Adel :) Will have to ask Margaret, OK
I was thinking maybe the goldfinch would be an Hawaiian????
Osprey that is nesting along the Highway, near Fredericton NB

Wish I could say those hostas were mine, but they belong to the neighbor. But I got some pretty ones too, with the outside leaves being whitish yellow.
Another shot of the Osprey.

TV landed in a tree just outside of our bedroom this morning. I see them often in flight, but never had one land in one of our trees. Patti
Splendid pics, everyone.
Bbrookrd, I'd be a little concerned if a vulture landed outside my window.
Burn, look at the expression on the face of the Osprey. Wonderful. And you garden looks lovely. Is the stream at your place?
adelbertcat, I given the responsibility of a retort to the Aussie Woodpecker to my husband. Await same. Hopefully it will be worth it.
Kookaburra outside the kitchen. Be very careful if you're ever having a picnic or barbeque with these birds around, they'll snap a snagger from your hand before you can blink.
cute Kookaburra. Wasn't there a cookie called a kookaburra?
Nice Turkey vulture. So let me tell you this story.
DH and I are in Mexico (Los Cabos). We're not much the resort type so go looking for different things to do. Since we had a 4WD jeep, I told him I'd like to go to a remote place up in the mountains. You had to pass a military checkpoint just so they knew you were up there in the mountains. So we set off… there's no one around. Pretty soon there's a cow on the side of the road. We keep going and going… nothing. Then we start seeing the turkey vultures perched on the cactus. It reminded us of a Bugs Bunny cartoon (so many things do). "Gladys dear, look… Lunch!"
The Baltimore Orioles are very regular in coming now!
Indigo Bunting playing hard to get.
Wonderful pics everyone!
Thanks for starting the new thread burn; love the Osprey!
Hi bbrookrd, Good one of the close Turkey Vulture.
Great start to the thread guys!
I like those Indigo buntings - so bright.
Got a black crowned night heron tonight
Not much of a close up - more of a silhouette shot.
Nice shots Al!
Koala Cookies
Happy birthday Pelletory, a day late. Birds galore and no weeds in your garden, ever. Patti
A blackbird fledgling at Alnwick garden today.
And a song thrush
Stunning markings on the Song Thrush, kniphofia. Do they live up to their name?
Beautiful Heron, bigcityal.
Kookaburra cookies! That's so funny. Haven't heard of Koala cookies either. If they were Kookaburra cookies, they eat themselves.
The Indigo Bunting's colour is breathtaking.
Your little Blackbird is so cute kniphofia!
Had a large group of Turkey Vuletures flying overhead the other day
Great pics kniphofia! Love the Song Thrush!!
Cute little Blackbird knip! Last year mine were all brought to the feeding station, lol, cat food. Haven't seen them anywhere this year except I know where their nest was.
The Song Thrush has the most wonderful repertoire, very lengthy, varied, and quite loud too. I am priveleged to hear it most of the day! The Mistle Thrush usually comes with it's young later and takes over, similar song, they are territorial where there is a good stock of berries. The Song Thrush I have seen lately more on the perimeter of my garden and on the neighbours TV antenna, the Mistle Thrush arrived a while back to make it's nest.
The Green Finches visit the nuts, this male wasn't aware I was squatted nearby but soon saw me!
Then the female Green Finch arrived.
Looking pretty.
She went to feed, still hadn't seen me.
Their cute wallaby!
Pelle - I didn't know you had a birthday yesterday! Congratulations on completing another year! Here's wishing great things for the one ahead!!!
Margaret, I think Kookaburra's were sold by the Girl Scouts here.
Caramel Delites (formerly Samoas)
Vanilla cookies topped with caramel, toasted coconut and chocolate.The second best-selling Girl Scout cookie and among the top five best-selling cookies in the U.S.This cookie replaced Kookaburras – rectangle-shaped treats made with wafers, caramel and chocolate – in the 1980s.
Same old crowd this afternoon!!
