Summer is here - let's celebrate.
The House Wrens are parents now.
I watch them fly in and out of the house. Often when they leave, they are carrying a fecal sac to help keep the nest clean of feces. Pretty clever of Mother Nature.
As best I can tell the Black-capped Chickadees are done nesting.
I think a Downy Woodpecker created the tiny holes on this branch.
I had a female Brown-headed Cowbird show up.
Big news in Acorn Woodpeckerland! I've seen three birds multiple times now. This is a new bird - a male with pink eyes.
The Pine Siskins have nested and fledged. The youngster on top successful begged for food and was fed multiple times.
And here's a young Steller's Jay! A rumpled mess like most teenagers are.
Lovely bee stitch! Loved each one of your bird photos, but my favorite in this batch is the young Stellar's Jay.
ReplyDeleteOh, how lucky I feel to have found your website! A stitching site connected us but your bird pictures bring me such joy I look forward to coming again. It is such a treat to be able to see so many different birds and to see their young. Thank you so much for sharing your hobbies.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great project for the solstice!
