Hidden Birds


There are plenty of birds around but they are harder to see now that the foliage is thick. Also, I do not feed them in the summer so they rarely pose in front of my windows.

The small woodpecker was pecking on the stems of the bush. I believe the bird on the bench is a catbird.

The third bird is really hard to see. It is brown and white and may be a sparrow.

  1. I like watching birds and it is hard to catch them on camera, mostly unsuccessful for me. I like the orange flowers just popping out. The photos of your parents are so classic. A very charming couple and both look so happy with each other.

  2. Not the best definition in the third picture but the bird looks like a female Red-winged Blackbird.

  6. Although they are trying to hide ... it's always nice to see them.

    All the best Jan
