Geese and Other Birds in My Yard.

Canada Geese.

A redwing blackbird was at the edge of the lake minding her own business, when another bird of the same species hopped up and jumped on her. I wasn't shooting video so you'll have to take my word for it. 



Our Carolina Wrens have been singing prettily. Sweet birds!

Finches are raising babies in a birdhouse over our deck. They don't like me to get close; I use a zoom to get their pictures or crop the image, sometimes both.

  5. Some birds are more wary of passersby than others, but especially so when they're nesting. Excellent shots!

  10. Great bird photos! Carolina Wrens are so much fun!
    Your Red-winged Blackbirds are males. That could be a territorial dispute between the two birds.
    Hope you are having a good week!
