I have more from our neighborhood lake and back yard.  We usually take our walks on the local fire roads and to the lake.  

1.  Jan 21st, one of the highlights of this walk to the lake was a closer look at the White-breasted Nuthatch. 

Click on images for better viewing.

2. We see a lot of  White-breasted Nuthatches in our neighborhood. Some times they come to my deck for some peanuts I put out on my deck railing. 

3. Jan 22nd , We drove around our lake and took a walk to the lake where we can see the Bald Eagle's nest.  The Eagles were perched in two different trees not far from the nest. We saw a big group of Common Mergansers and another group of Hooded Mergansers. Also on this walk we saw a large flock of Robins and lots of Cedar Waxwings. 

4. This was one of the two Bald Eagles we saw in trees next to the lake. Their nest is close by. 

5. We spooked the Hooded Mergansers when we got closer to the lake, they all flew off.  

6. We stopped on the fire road to watch a large group of Cedar Waxwing, maybe 20 or more. They found a lot of berries to eat. 

7. Jan 25th we had a light dusting of snow, is this a Red-tailed or a Red-shouldered Hawk. It was perched in a tree next to the driveway. 

8. This hawk sat in tree for awhile, looking this way and that way. Hoping to catch a meal.  

9. Bonus our grandson Wyatt will be 2 years old on the 15th, Happy 2nd Birthday Wyatt!
