Your chickadee has rusty brown spots - so sweet! Mine do not. Your Juncos seem to be more gray & I don't think I've ever seen a Varied Thrush.<br />Northern Flickers are one of my fav birds, ever.<br />I am in bird heaven looking at these photos! :)a blog about the little thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11595148379915818410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29961222.post-11396054763467223392011-01-02T13:47:13.630-08:002011-01-02T13:47:13.630-08:00I watch birds to but mine are no where near as bea...I watch birds to but mine are no where near as beautiful as yours my friendxx I live in a flat and so it is not possible to put up birdfeeder but l live opposite a wood and can see the birds from my windows and on gorgeous walks.<br />Happy New Yearxlynda<br />http://tryingtocreatarteveryday.blogspot.com<br />and<br />http://chocolatelifeandjazz.blogspot.comlynda Howellshtpp://chocolatelifeandjazz.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29961222.post-27086262591134054792011-01-02T12:42:21.949-08:002011-01-02T12:42:21.949-08:00I like that you call yourself a birder watcher rat...I like that you call yourself a birder watcher rather than a birder. The latter are a very unique, and quite odd, group of people! ;) For a couple summers I worked in the Appalachian Mountains doing a variety of projects from deer and small mammals to vegetation to birds. For birds, I mist-netted along a migration route and did spot-mapping surveys for oven birds. Both of these projects fueled my love of birds. I have such fond memories of that work.<br /><br />Beautiful images and I love flickers...we have several around our house though they test my patience when they peck insistently on our metal pipe during breeding season.<br /><br />Happy New Year!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16478839034249164862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29961222.post-24762364739738975032011-01-02T07:00:18.468-08:002011-01-02T07:00:18.468-08:00Not a bad title, at all, to have attached to onese...Not a bad title, at all, to have attached to oneself. I love your bird photos. Before my sons were born, I was a bit of a birder too. I would drag my husband to some local events, binoculars around my neck. With babies, I found I had less time to just go outside and watch. as they get older, I'm finding more time to watch with the boys at my side. Happy birding!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00833200712432797583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29961222.post-74149826417629370832011-01-01T22:00:06.287-08:002011-01-01T22:00:06.287-08:00We spent time down at the beach today, soaking up ...We spent time down at the beach today, soaking up the glorious sunshine.<br /><br />My son and I saw what we think was a peregrine falcon (certainly a large bird of prey) at salmon point the other day. There were some crows harassing it in a tall tree and just as we were walking near the tree the bird flew off across the campground to a different tree. Quite a sight to see it flying overhead.<br /><br />Love all your birds! My mum has a feeder and she spends hours watching the birds at it. Seems to be a very good area for it.katehttp://0521kt.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
