It's time for some of my favorites memes Skywatch Friday and NF Winged.
These shots are all from this past Saturday. The same day as our visit to Fort McHenry and Snow Buntings on my post below. I started by taking shots of our backyard sunrise and ended with our sunset from along the road home and our backyard. Also, included were a few of my backyard birds.
Looking west the sky and clouds turned a pretty pink with the sunrise.
A shot of the crescent moon above our house.
I am pretty sure this is a juvenile Purple Finch. He found a happy spot on my deck railing.
The Red-Breasted Nuthatches are one of my favorite visitors in the winter.
We stopped along the road to enjoy this sky, we were almost home.
The last couple of shots were taken at my front street and backyard.
To see more beautiful photos and pretty skies please visit Skywatch Friday
and to see more of the winged critters check out NF Winged

ReplyDeleteA brilliant post for these memes Eileen. Those skies are magnificent and your birds are really cute shots. Thanks for stopping by today on my Dad's post, and for the very kind words. I also wanted to let you know that I have had to put the comment moderation on as all of a sudden I have had an overwhelming influx of spam recently. Thankfully it has helped but I have already deleted a couple of blogging friends comments by mistake :( I will get the hang of it soon I suppose. I just have to slow down somewhat. Have a great day!

You have a well stocked bird table there Eileen. I think that Purple Finch has found a good thing there to stock up for winter. Have a great weekend Eileen.
