Yesterday, hubby and I visited Bombay Hook NWR in Delaware. The shorebirds and warblers are all migrating and it is a great time to do some Delaware birding.
My mosaics are my entry for this weeks Mosaic Monday. Thanks to Mary of Little Red house for hosting Mosaic Monday
In my mosaic are some photos and I included a list of some of the birds I was able to id. The list for the day: Bald Eagles, Osprey, Mallard Ducks, Great Egrets, Snowy Egrets, Cattle Egrets, Great Blue Herons, Black Crowned Night Herons, Short Billed Dowitchers, Redknots, Yellowlegs, Dunlins, Willets, Black necked Stilts, Glossy Ibis, Tree Swallows, Purple Martins, Blue Grosbeak, Indigo Bunting, Marsh Wren, Northern Flicker, Cormorants, Eastern Kingbirds, Redwing Blackbirds, TV Vultures and Crows.
Just of the couple of the Warblers I saw were the Common Yellowthroat and the Yellow Warbler.

I must have problem to identify such a long list of birds. It is an easier task to capture them than to id them.
at the water’s edge—
cormorants waiting to strike
and gulp hapless fish
Golden chrysanthemums…forever
You fascinate me with your photo abilities. Those are awesome looking birds!
Great mosaics! Hope you have a wonderful new week!

wow these are wonderful....i think my favourite is the large white bird in the tree with the leaves...is it an ergot or crane...(i have no idea about birds except my best friends little brother would have like 20 big books open all over the living room floor whenever i was there).

Beautiful bird shots, Eileen! You've captured some wonderful photos.
I'm always amazed when I see your photos!!! so beautiful.
It is a beautiful wildlife reserve. So many interesting bird finds.
What a lovely collection of birds in your mosaic!
What a wonderful variety of birds you saw! You must have had a hard time deciding what to shoot and even harder deciding what to put in your mosaics. The photos and the mosaics are both lovely.
Oh those are absolutely perfect -- I would put the first collage on my wall if I were you! Great post for both of those memes too.
It's wonderful to know about birds and I always enjoy learning more. Thanks for the post. Jane F.

Both very pretty! You got some great shots of the birds.
Beautiful photos with great birds! I love Bombay hook.
