These are birds from my yard. I did have an exciting night when a Screech Owl showed up outside my bedroom window. I was alerted by a couple of Titmouse fussing at the owl. The warblers were still in the yard eating berries as of Oct 8th.
10/8/18....The Eastern Screech Owl outside my window, this was the second time I saw the owl right outside my window.
I pushed down the blind just enough to take a few photos. I did not want to spook the owl away. This is a link to the first Screech owl yardbird
10/5/18....The male Black-throated Blue Warbler was enjoying the Devil's Walking Stick berries. I also saw the female but she was a little shy.
10/5/18...Two Cape May Warblers also loving the berries.
Above and below more of the Cape May Warblers.
Another shot of the Black-throated Blue Warbler.
The female Red-bellied Woodpecker on the suet ball feeder.

Hello Eileen,
Beautiful series of photos of these different birds.
The last photo is my favorite.
I can not post my link again, maybe you want to do it.
I wish you a very nice weekend.
Best regards, Irma
Any view of an Eastern Screech Owl is remarkable and to have one right outside your window is very special indeed. The closest I have come to that is to hear one calling in the night from my bedroom.
We have no chance of seeing an owl in our area.

what a delight to have this owl visit you! The warblers are very attractive and woodpeckers are always fun...what a joy for your autumnal weekend!!! YAM xx
I heard a hoot owl at midnight outside my bedroom window. I must have scared him away when I opened the blinds. First time I have heard an owl here.
...an owl is something that I've never seen in the wild, thanks!
What a lovely treat to see it! Good work, you didn't spook it.
I enjoy your fire road walkies, too!
Beautiful photos, Eileen. It must be nice to have a personal visit by the owl, that is priceless. Thanks for hosting and have a wonderful weekend.
Beautiful bird photos, and to have an owl right outside your window - fantastic!
Have a wonderful weekend!
A lovely collection of photos once again, Eileen! The owl must be doing its practice run for Halloween! :-)
The blue warbler is my fave :-)
Screech Owl right outside my bedroom window
would get my attention too.
Great picture catch!
Fun to look them right in the eye. Happy Day.
I can't believe you saw that right at your home! WOW! I would be so thrilled. Love the small birds too. Happy weekend!
Wow right at the window! How cool that is an amazing food plant for some good looks at the warblers they seem to block to it like candy
Nice pictures today Eileen. The owl looks like it saw its own reflection in the window? Those berries of your must be so nutritious and attractive to birds. And I love those shots of the warblers.
Thanks for the link-up today. Have a great weekend.
Awesome owl shots.
Warblers are challenging to photograph. You nailed it.
Wonderful feathered friend shots ~ favorite is the owl ones!
Happy Day to you,

Wow how cool to have an owl in your backyard!!
I’m very jealous of your Woodpecker picture Eileen. Have a great weekend.
Hi Eileen, hope you have a great weekend. I actually didn't notice the geese in this post until it was up for a while. Ha ha, so I was eligible to add to your great critters post today. Love your owl. They see so much better than we do, so I imagine he now knows exactly how a camera operates!
Beautiful birds, especially that owl!
the yellow warbler looks a lot like our Yellowhammer. :)
Thanks for reminding me :)
How great to see an Owl right outside the window. Hoot! Hoot! I love seeing birds I did not know about---The Cape May and the Black throated---never heard of---Thank you for showing them to me

What a sight! I would be so pleased to have such a visitor.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy weekend!
So exciting to have an owl in your yard. Ilove all critters big or small and it's interesting and fun to see birds I've never seen or heard of on the other end of the world.
How exciting to have an owl visit, Eileen! I like the look of those Cape May Warblers too!
Magnificas e belas fotografias.
Um abraço e bom fim de semana.

Lucky to have a Screech Owl, fantastic taking such photos.
I would be very excited to see a Screech Owl land outside my window. A beautiful bird and I also enjoyed all your others. Thanks Eileen and have a great weekend :)
Great owl photos, how neat to have the bird perch right outside your window! Enjoyed all your other bird photos as well. Those berries bring you a great variety of them! Hope you are enjoying your weekend so far.
A lovely selection of photographs for us to see, thank you.
How amazing to have an owl right outside your window, loved seeing the photo's of it.
Wishing you a good weekend.
All the best Jan
Very cool to see the owl! Have a great weekend.
Love the owl! Fabulous!
My mom loved owls and she has passed that love on to me. Stunning photos!
You love birds so much, so that the owl just came to visit you.. :D.. jokes apart.. you are lucky dear, you got a chance to see an owl.. XOXO
What a great owl! Thanks for hosting.
Hi Eileen, I love owls and how cool that you saw this one so close-up. Thankis for hosting this meme. Have a great weekend. Jo
Love the owl! And your pictures are great, although difficult to take. We had a wookpecker a few years ago, I never saw it but could hear it. Now the trees have disappeared, houses built and woodpecker moved away !
What a lovely visitor - bet it was hard to sleep between the Titmouse and the Screech Owl that's quite a racquet!
