Waiting Grackle

This Grackle had his laser focus on one of my bird feeders. He was waiting on the mourning doves to vacate (fat chance!) Finally, I shooed the doves away so this guy could have his turn.

ANOTHER Mourning Dove baby!

Baby? What baby? I don't see another baby here!

Bob - did you have ANOTHER baby???

Ssh Mr. Finch! I think our bird feeding lady is starting to get suspicious!

Juvenile Robin on the loose

I thought this juvenile Robin was absolutely beautiful! He had a sibling that kept managing to stay out of my photos - but I'm glad he had company.

Mourning Dove Bully

Bob - my mourning dove bully - was trying to initimidate this little sparrow off one of my bird feeders. The sparrow was oblivious to him and happily munched his seeds. Nice try Bob!

Loon stalking continues

This weekend I went over to Glory Lake in Grayling, MI to see if the nesting pair of Loons had returned and sure enough they had. Unfortunately for me they spent most of their time on the other side of the lake so these pics aren't as good as the last Loon photos I took at Emerald Lake recently. But again - they are Loons and I love them!

Cardinal with an ego

I think I look pretty handsome today.




















I think this is my best side. What do you think?






















Oh please! Just go get me some sunflower seeds and quit messing around!
