"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." John Muir

I love to share my birds photos, nature photos from my walks with my dog Miney. Bird watching is one of my simple pleasures. I am still over a month behind sharing my photos. 

Click on images for better viewing.

1. Below a walk in my neighborhood with Miney, I head to the fire road that goes to the local Prettyboy watershed.  

As I head up the road I see a deer, luckily Miney missed seeing the deer. She would have wanted to chase after the deer. Sorry the photo is blurry, it is hard to take photos while holding Miney's leash. 

My Merlin Birds heard on our fire road walk. 

The Great-crested Flycatcher is another breeder in our area and neighborhood. I hear them often on my walks with Miney in the Prettyboy watershed. 

2. In my yard, I like to sit and enjoy the birds that visit my feeders.  The Tufted Titmouse, the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, and the Red-bellied Woodpeckers are seen every day.  

3. My Merlin App birds from my deck, one early morning. Just a few minutes and I am hearing some great birds. 

4. Below is a photo of the Yellow-billed Cuckoo, it is another bird that is a breeder in the Prettyboy watershed. There have been times that I can hear them around my yard and in the forest that surrounds our house.

5. The House Wren is one of the loudest birds in my back yard.  

Below are two Merlin App birds lists from my walk with Miney on the local fire road. 

6. The Cedar Waxwings are one of my favorite birds to see and hear in my back yard. Their sounds easily recognizable, it is a high pitch call.

7. Our granddaughter Sophie's birthday party was a fun time.  Except for the extreme heat, the water slide was a hit with the kiddies. 

8. Below I am sharing two of the Vireos, both are seen and heard in my yard and neighborhood.  The Red-eyed Vireo top photo is pretty bird and has a loud call. The White-eyed Vireo bottom photo, is seen and heard in the Prettyboy watershed around our home.
