Red Bellied Woodpecker
Mourning Dove
Bald Eagles were not known to winter here forty years ago. Now we have them nesting and staying in our neighborhood....:) The egg laying begins in late February and early March
Pheasants are no longer common here as fence lines and wetlands for habitat are gone.

Loved the screech owl photo---they always look so "serious"!
ReplyDeleteHi TB - aren't they wonderful ... lovely photographs ... thanks for sharing them with us, and the extra notes - nature changes all the time ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteIt's a long time since I saw a Nuthatch, yet we once had them in the garden every day. Lovely pictures of all the birds, favourite one is the Redpoll.
ReplyDeleteLove the bird pictures. I know and see almost all of them around here. :-0
ReplyDeleteBird-watching is a grand winter sport isn't it and we can often do it from the warmth of our homes. I have had a lot of the same visit me.
ReplyDeleteYou have a nice variety of birds to brighten up the winter. I got a new one for my life list this week at the beach, a ruddy turnstone. Still in his winter plumage but still exciting for me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos today. I love nuthatches...their little "peep peep" is so cute. And I like how they move down the trees face-first.
ReplyDeleteEagles are becoming a problem in our area and outlying, more rural areas too. If I understand correctly, they hunt for "fun" and don't always eat their prey. They have been decimating chicken farms, leaving dead chickens all over the ground without eating it. In the "city," they are going after little dogs and cats. People are not happy.
Great assortment! We don't have many sparrows, Pine Siskins or Titmouses or Cardinals. They have Cardinals in town along the river. :) I haven't seen a Pheasant in a long time or a grouse:(
ReplyDeleteGreat bird photos! You see a lot more variety than we see in Utah.
ReplyDeleteMr. science put together a fine collection of bird photos- thanks for sharing! I like the Blue Jay and redpoll ones the best!
ReplyDeleteI have taken interest in birding recently and write about them sometimes. Love the photos. I will follow your blog.
