Canadian Geese Babies

This was taken last year (with my old camera) at Seney National Wildlife Refuge in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I was in the mood to post this as I am so envious of all the other bird babies I'm seeing on everyone else's site. You can see six babies here and from what I've read they typically lay a clutch of 5-7 eggs. By the way, did you know each individual egg takes a day to lay?? Hmm....doesn't sound fun.

Red-winged Blackbird

Here is one of my daily "singers" up at the lake.

Blue Jay and the haystack

My husband put out corn and a haystack at his mom's place in the woods this past weekend hoping to attract deer. No deer, but plenty of Blue Jays enjoyed his corn treat!

Mystery Ducks!

The picture is not as clear as I wanted - but can you please help identify these lovely ducks? I've had no luck so far with my Michigan field guide....Thank you!

Time for breakfast

How does green worms sound for breakfast?




















How do you like this view?






















I'm going to keep my eye on you from this tree!

Aren't I just the cutest thing you've ever seen?

Black-capped Chickadee Babies

My husband had a dream. Put up 4 birdhouses and hopefully attract at least 1 chickadee family up at our log home. I am happy to say his dream came true! More photos to follow.

(Have a nice and safe Memorial weekend everyone!)

More Rose-breasted Grosbeak

I just can't get enough of the Rose-breasted grosbeak. I feel so lucky when go up north to our log cabin www.logcabininmichigan.blogspot.com - and I see these beautiful birds flying about. The peanut feeder is their favorite.
