I am linking up with Wild Bird Wednesday and Nature Notes
September 9, 2013
This weekend in between running errands and taking our weekend walk, I did find time to check out my backyard birds. I am hoping to see some warblers pass thru like they did last year. I have plenty of pokeberries and berries on the Devils Walking stick. So, I am ready! Come on Warblers!
Above is a Gray Catbird and in the background is a blurry Tufted Titmouse.
This is a little better shot of the Tufted Titmouse.
A fluffy looking Carolina Chickadee enjoying his seed.
A female Ruby-throated Hummingbird has taken over the duty of protecting the feeders.
The hummer enjoying the hibiscus flower and plant.
I love my hummers and I will miss them when they head south, for now I am taking lots of hummer photos.
I love my hummingbirds.
A beautiful male American Goldfinch still showing off his pretty color.
I was happy to see the Black-throated Blue Warbler on my deck, I know this is an awful shot. But, it is my record of seeing this warbler in my yard.
I will end this post with a cute Chipping Sparrow. I hope you enjoyed my backyard birds.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! You have a nice variety in your yard. Our hummers will probably be leaving soon, too.
ReplyDeleteYour backyard is a great birding spot. They are add adorable but I just love the little Tufted Titmouse. That one looks a little startled by something.

ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful assortment of birds, the finch and the Chipping Sparrow, have never seen these before.
ReplyDeleteWonderful collection of backyard birds! I am envious,especially of your hummingbirds! I haven't seen any songbirds for a while, and think all the migrants are long gone. I'm hearing the Chickadees chirping in the trees, so I think it's getting to be time to put my feeders back up for the winter.
ReplyDeleteLove the Tufted Titmouse - who thought up that name!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful series photos!
