Saturday's Critters #219


Welcome to Saturday's Critters!


If you love all God's creatures like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!

I am not sure if any of my followers participated with the Great Backyard Bird Count with Cornell Lab of Ornithology, here is the link GBBC  the count took place on Feb 16-19th. Here are some of the birds I saw during my backyard count. It is a fun online citizen-science project.

The Northern Cardinals, I counted 3 males and 2 females at one time.



The Eastern Bluebird does not stop by often but sometimes I catch them sitting in our back yard trees. On this day I saw a pair, maybe checking out my birdhouses.


The Blue Jays were my highest count species of bird. I saw 12  Blue Jays at one time.

On Feb 18th we had about 2inches of snow. The GBBC also asks us to record the weather along with the length of time we watched our backyard birds.  There are three White-throated Sparrows below can you find them?


3 Eastern Bluebirds showed up during my count and checked out the birdhouse.











Here is a list of my linky parties;

Nice collection of 'sightings', Eileen! I found two sparrows, but not sure about the third. They sure are camouflaged perfectly! Hope you have a good weekend xx Karen

Wonderful to be able to watch the birds visiting your place. Over here we are having both sunshine and heavy rain. It is usually sunny first half of the day and rain on the later part. Thank you for hosting and have a beautiful day! Keep warm!

Hi Eileen, I love that male Northern Cardinal and of course the bluebirds. I went bird watching earlier tonight and saw Sandhill Cranes, Whistlers, crows and a bunch of Glossy Ibis. I also saw a Great Blue Heron on its nest in what is once again a wading bird roost here. Have a fantastic weekend!
