The Bird D'Pot

Mrs. Mockingbird when it's pouring down rain but you still have to feed the kids.

Mr. Cardinal. Molting season is starting.

Tufted Titmouse.

Saturday Critters

This deer was all alone down near the trees by the back pond. I took this shot through the kitchen window he/she was at least 1/4 mile away. It was busy eating and making sure no predator lurked nearby. Looking forward...

... and then behind...

...before he/she continued grazing.

Mr. Cardinal found a tasty morsel.

Three turtles and six geese.

Mr. Blue Heron kept me company at the park in Ada.

As did these domestic geese.

The Bird D'pot

These barn swallows were inspecting our porch. I'm sure with the idea of building a nest. One ended up trying to fly inside through the window. It flew away, so I'm hopeful it is okay.

I believe I have this one identified correctly. Indigo Bunting in transitional plumage. 

Gus took me to the park where I got to see this snowy egret wading in the shallows.

Mrs. Bluebird stopped by for a visit. She must have been taking a break from the nest.

 This cardinal was perched on the top of a dead tree. I thought he looked nice against the blue sky.

Happy Mother's Day!

The Bird D'Pot

Last Wednesday we had a soft rain all day. I didn't think it would be a good day for birds, but I was wrong. 

This is the first time I've seen a Western Kingbird enjoying the feeders. 

And the first time the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher came this close sto the house.

The Upland Sandpipers are still here and enjoying a nice mud puddle. Bath time. 

A damp Ruby-throated Hummingbird.

Even Mr. and Mrs soaking wet Cardinal showed up.

Turned out to be a productive day.
