They are just precious, aren’t they. They can get so excited.
Today there was a funny incident involving a white breasted nuthatch and a female goldfinch. The nuthatch swooped in to grab a seed, but then started feeding the goldfinch. Then he got out another one for her and these two were just kind of looking at each other, gently touching their beaks. He would dip in again to find another seed for her...
I suppose there must be some normal bird behavior explanation, but I’d never seen that. It looked like love at first sight. That nuthatch was smitten. Bless their little hearts. :)
I haven't been getting much recently either, so I dug out a few from the way back machine...
Great Blue Heron stalking in the reeds.
Ibis, not sure which one.
Snowy Egret nabbing a Shad
Foggy mornings on the same lake were great for photography, another great Blue Heron on a stump. (Could also be a Tricolored Heron, hard to tell.)
I set up a log from a tree we cut down that I use as a feeder, the Carolina Chickadee is a regular visitor. Difficult to get a shot at all, they grab a sunflower seed (always, nothing else) and leave in about 3 seconds max, I get one shot for about every 20 attempts.
And since he's been mentioned a couple of times, the Tufted Titmouse. They also grab nothing but sunflower seeds.
Most of there are from 2012, I think the Chickadee and Titmouse were from 2013.
