I am sharing a mish-mash collection of photos from my walks with Miney and hubby, archived images of some favorite birds.

Click on images for better viewing.

1.  My local Prettyboy fire road walk with Miney. The trail is covered with leaves now, Miney always has her nose to the ground during our walk. 

2. Our walk with Miney and hubby on the NCR bike trail in Parkton Md. 

The critters seen at home in our yard, the Peacock was walking around the yard I assume looking for bugs to eat. The deer was on our driveway and a big fat groundhog was around the side yard. 

The Peacock is often seen near this little wood pile in our yard.  There may be lots of bugs hiding in the wood pile.

3. When we come home from dialysis I usually eat lunch and then I take Miney for a walk. Below is the local fire road walk with Miney. Luckily we have not come across a deer hunter. 

4. Another walk on the local NCR bike trail with hubby and Miney.  I heard a lot of birds, seems like a lot of White-throated Sparrows along the trail. I did see a Great Blue Heron standing in the stream. 

A larger look at the Great Blue Heron.

5. Seen on my travels, the Parakeets were one of my many favorite birds to see.  I am sharing archived images of various Parakeets, Parrots and the Mexican Parrotlet. 

The Monk Parakeet in Cape Coral Florida 2017 at the Pelican Baseball complex. Same spot where I saw the Burrowing Owls.

The Nanday Parakeet  was seen south of St Augustine, Florida, Jan 17, 2017

 The Rose-ringed Parakeet was seen in Kapaa Kauai 2022.

The Olive-throated Parakeet seen in Belize 2014. 

Blue-crowned Parakeet was seen in Pompano Beach Florida 2019.

The Yellow-headed Parakeet was seen in Curacao 2012

The Red-Lored Parrots were seen all over Costa Rica 2010

 

Mexican Parrotlet, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico 2023. It was a tiny bird and very cute. There were a flock of these birds in the trees eating some kind of fruit?

Tomorrow is my son's 33nd birthday, Happy Birthday Brian! Hubby's birthday is the 10th, Happy Birthday to hubby Michael.

My walks with nature in October were on the NCR bike trail and our local fire roads

1. Oct 3rd, our walk with nature was on the fire road with Miney. We were finding some mushrooms along the trail.

2. Oct 14, another walk with Miney. We were enjoying the pretty fall colors. A deer was standing on the fire road, we turned around rather than spook the deer.

3. Oct 17th our walk with nature was on the NCR trail in Parkton. Another deer in a near by field, a Robin sitting high in a tree, the view of bike trail with Miney and the stream.

4. Another fire road walk to the lake and then a drive around the lake to the Prettyboy Dam. There was a big flock of Canada Geese, I had to hold Miney back or she would have chased them away. 

5. I am sharing some of the winter birds I am hearing on our walks.  It is nice to hear and see the winter birds. Some of these are archived photos, it is hard to hold Miney's leash and take bird photos. 

Below is the Golden-crowned Kinglet.

Below are two Ruby-crowned Kinglets.

6. My Merlin App is picking up the sounds of the Brown Creeper now, another winter bird in my area. 

7. In my yard, a winter bird is the White-throated Sparrow. 

8. Another bird I see in the winter is the Purple Finch. Below is the male and female.
