I knew that I was going to have a less than super-duper bird count due to the warm temps. I did enjoy seeing my usual visitors. Here are the pictorial highlights...
Female Northern Cardinal with American Goldfinch in the background
Carolina Wren
This was my mystery birds...well not really. I "thought they were Cedar Waxwings but wasn't sure until I uploaded the close-up pictures on my laptop.
Here's the proof !
Not the best photo but a great addition to my Bird Count!
I LOVE BIRD WATCHING!
Wishing Peace,Health, Wealth and Love to ALL!
I think it is fun doing the GBBC. You saw some great birds, I love the wren shot and I wish I had the Cedar Waxwings in my yard. Lucky You!
ReplyDeleteEileen, I consider any day seeing Waxwings are great birding day!!!
DeleteThis is a real nice page. It makes me feel like I spent a pleasant day in your backyard with you and enjoyed all your beautiful birds.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diane! You are a sweetheart!
DeleteNice pics. I have been neglecting my bird watching duties with so much other stuff going on in this nice weather this year. I miss watching those interesting little guys.
ReplyDeleteBlessings
Blessings to you! Glad to remind y'all to bird watch!
DeleteMy GBBC was very slow this year.I finally submitted a lit on Monday,because I actually had some birds to count on that day.
ReplyDeleteGood Go Ruth!!!
DeleteI was so busy admiring the pose on that Cardinal I didn't even see the Goldfinch. Good thing you mentioned it.
ReplyDeleteReally??? (Smile)
DeleteOh I love the cardinal picture. We haven't seen many birds in our yard this winter at all
ReplyDeleteHopping you will get more birds soon!!!
DeleteWELL i forgot to count...but I did see quite a few nice birds on the weekend...What was your final tally?
ReplyDeleteUnh...it wasn't high. Haven't worried with a total.
DeleteWhat was yours?
Jean I think my favorite is the Northern Cardinal - just something I like about them. Hope all is going well! Love, sandie
ReplyDeleteNorthern Cardinals are a Fave of many!!!

ReplyDeleteThanks JP but I didn't enter enter any photos this year. Thanks for the Hug...I need one.:)
DeleteGood for you -- we had cedar waxwings in our yard one magical day (our other life) and I've seen them a couple of times since then in different places. My favorite of all, and I love all your pictures.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sallie, I agreed that seeing Cedar Waxwings makes for a very magical day!!!
DeleteThe camera is great for bird ID. Lots of the far away ones would be unknown if it weren't for a zoom lens.
ReplyDeleteThe Zoom digital camera has been a boon for bird watchers!
DeleteI miss bird watching. My bird nerd days are temporarily over since I started working full time. Great shots.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the job! I like how you said "temporarily over".
DeleteMy birding time has been drastically reduced due to work as well. Bummer...but it is temporary.:)
