Winter

Well it took a while to get here, but it appears it is now winter.

Feb.23, 2011

more snow last night and temperatures staying down below the freezing mark, not to mention the fairly strong outflow winds…

Winter

it was down right bitter out there today.  A few ducks, 1 Bald Eagle and some Kinglets in the bushes….that was it…   If my yard is any indication all the others are up in the residential areas clustered around bird feeders…

Varied Thrush

These pictures are taken through a not very clean, double pane window…there are Varied Thrush every where you look…

Towhee

almost as many Spotted Towhee…..

Steller's Jay

Steller’s Jay….Song Sparrows, masses of Red-wing Blackbirds, Starlings, Junco and even an elusive Fox Sparrow… pretty much rounds out the species seen.

  1. I'm sure you may have preferred to go without the snow; but it does provide a beautiful background for colourful birds.

    Loving your playgound. :)
