    Hi

    Early Dawn Chorus

    First Hummer. 30117. 2024

    Cool, do you do anything to attract them? I haven't seen a hummingbird in my yard in years, I never had any success with a feeder other than Baltimore orioles coming to it.

    Nice painting, the loose strokes give it energy, as if the bird is ready to take flight or defend its food source

    Comment by 'emc' in media 'Female Northern Cardinal'

    Thank you everyone. I wasn't sure how it would be received, most of the artwork I see around here is more on the realistic side. I'm happy that it's liked.

    I have no idea but I was wondering was that nest made there or did it fall down from a tree?

    Birds and weather

    I heard a lot of chirping when the weather was unusually warm for this time but since the weather cooled the birds have become quiet again. I guess like everyone else they were thrilled at the warm weather we had for a couple of days, ha, ha
