I have to admit I spend a lot of time in my backyard watching and photographing the birds. Here are a few of my favorites.







We also are lucky to see wading birds in the salt marsh behind our house. I’ll often run grab my camera to capture them when they land on one of the docks.

Pit, thank you. I often see Great Egrets in the marsh but that was the first one to ever land inside our yard!

Ingrid, most of these only come around certain parts of the year. It’s entertaining to see which ones will show up and then which ones will chase the others away from the feeder.

I love love love your birds! The chickadee at the top is fantastic! The chickadees and titmouse have come back because we are feeding them again with the kites gone. I’ve seen the Downy Woodpecker back on the feeders too. I’m so ready for cooler weather! Go DAWGS! 🙂

Lisa, thank you. The chickadees are regulars but I’ve only seen the titmouse a couple of times. The hummingbirds haven’t been here in a while.

The hummingbirds are still here. Today is going to be a hot one as that tropical storm pushes north and east. 🙂
