Very happy to have seen this guy while driving by on one of our really cold mornings. He was all puffed up trying to stay warm.

Pictures of some Cedar Waxwings from this summer in Maine. I took these at dusk when they were catching dinner. Lucky for me since they didn't seem to mind that I was there.

Wood ducks have made the river behind my Grandmothers house home. There is about 15-20 of them. Very hard to get pictures of them. Had to take these from with in the house. I was lucky to open the door without them hearing me.

Had a visitor this morning. A Northern Flicker. I was surprised to see him catching bugs in the lawn instead of the trees.

These are from this spring. This is a female Yellow Bellied Sapsucker. It amazed me how she blended in with the tree.

First time seeing baby Turkeys. I thought mom was sitting on the rock kinda strange. Then she stood up and there were all the babies. I counted at least 10. They are so cute!

Went back to check on the nests. We had some high winds and wasn't sure if all the nest would be there and they were. There was a lot babies as well. I could hear them more than see them though. I did get a few pictures of the babies but most of the time there where out of sight in the nest.

Male and female Cardinal having a midday snack in the spruce tree. This had to be the brightest male Cardinal I have ever seen.

Earlier this past week we had a Turkey Vulture hanging around across the street for the day. The crows were not happy with him at all. One Crow, by afternoon, was dive bombing the vulture. The vulture did finally give up and leave. I know Vultures are not the "prettiest" of birds but the are amazing in their own way.

I found a Great Blue Heron nesting site. I was very careful not to disturb them. Thankfully with my new lens I could take the pictures through the branches of the trees so I didn't have to get to close. I can't wait to start seeing the babies!
