Camera Critters #147

It’s always nice to see a new bird in my yard…and my Camera Critter for this week, is just that…a new yard bird.

It’s not that Downy Woodpeckers are rare here, it is just they normally don’t stop in my yard and give me time to photograph them.

But this guy did  8v)

Camera Critter #145

Yes…I did post an image of this species, maybe even the same bird, two weeks ago.  But this is such a beautiful image, I just had to pass it on for y’all to see.

Once again…the Varied Thrush.

Oh…and if I get an even better shot of this beautiful bird in the coming week, you’ll see it again.  8v)

Camera Critters #144

Several years ago, while walking through a nearby park, I noticed something moving around in a tree.

As I got closer, I realized the movement was being caused by a Yellow Warbler.  Having seen very few and never having got a good photo of one, I moved around the tree with the bird, capturing one image after another, hoping at least one would come out looking nice.

Well, I succeeded.
