My world with Nature.Photographs, and a few words about the birds that visit the garden and those that I manage to see.
One of the favorites.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Sun May 03, 2009 4:16 am The Great Blue heron, takes a stroll. I watch these birds fishing and they don't do a lot of walking so this was worth a shot.

One of the uglies.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Fri May 01, 2009 6:28 pm But something that is needed I guess. They do keep the place clean. I see these birds around the lagoon where food for them sometimes washes ashore.Thank you for the messages and for looking at the pics. There are a couple of other geese that I have taken photos of so I will post others some time. Just 2 posts a day, so it is hard to reply to any questions.

A couple of Geese
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Fri May 01, 2009 4:23 am Back to the lagoon for this picture of a couple of brant geese. I think the black and white is really neat looking.

Now the male Red-winged Blackbird.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Thu Apr 30, 2009 4:27 am Only right that I should add the male red-wing. As spring arrives they send out their call from the reeds and the bullrushes and any other place that is close to the marshy places that they prefer.

A pair of hooded mergansers for today.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Wed Apr 29, 2009 5:18 am We have three species of mergansers in the area, this one is the most colorful. This is a pair of Hooded Mergansers. Quite attractive birds.

Back to the birds, a female.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Tue Apr 28, 2009 5:14 pm This is a juvenile female, Red-winged Blackbird. Not always the one the captures the photographers eye, but this one looked rather special.

OK, here is the first insect.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Mon Apr 27, 2009 10:48 pm Just a small click beetle, Ctenicera suckleyi,to start off with. It is also the first insect taken this year as the weather has started to warm up a little.

The male Anna's hummingbird.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Mon Apr 27, 2009 5:37 am As with most species of birds, the male is usually the more colorful one, this applies to the Anna's Hummingbird which I have added a picture of here.

A female Red Crossbill.
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Sun Apr 26, 2009 5:23 am It looks as it would be hard to eat with a bill like the Crossbills have. They stay around as long as there is a good supply of pine cones in the forests. They must drink a lot because of something in the pine seeds, so they visit the garden for water.

Hummingbird in Winter
Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Sat Apr 25, 2009 4:22 pm This is an Anna's Hummer that I took during the winter. How they make it is beyond me, not so much the cold but where is the food besides what I put out.
