Aidan B Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) I still need to get a good shot of a Lewis's, they're always backlit when I see them. It's too bad to, because they're my favorite woodpecker and none of my photos of them are very good! I did get some better ones recently though.

Clip Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Always love seeing these in our backyard. Best photo of the day but the day is young and hey a male could show up. No males so far this season but we have had them. Painted Bunting 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smskelton Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 We live in the desert where it is not uncommon for two (probably teenage) Cactus Wrens to sit in trees about 50 yards away from each other and yell all morning. "I'm over here in my tree and I can yell louder than you!" "Well, I'm over here and I can yell louder than you." You would think they lived in Philadelphia. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Well today may not have been the best for photos(raining off and on), but is was the best birding I have had here at my house since last winter. I really enjoyed it, seeing most of the winter birds again was great. https://ebird.org/checklist/S97073337 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smskelton Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Do you ever wonder what birds think? How about: "I never said that "Old World" House Sparrows discovered America. Ask any Canadian and they will tell you it was Leif Erikson." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
