    Hummer wannabe in NC

    took this shot yesterday in my yard. Its the only one I got so I can't compare to anything else and the lighting wasn't the greatest. Could it be a Pine Warbler? He did remind me of a hummer wannabe the way his back is arched and the feet tucked in. Thanks for helping out

    Hazel and Mali bird

    :t: Today I've seen and met the two coolest birds from Great Britain, (which, by the way they made proud) and I wish it could have been a longer visit. I hope they had as good a time as Pam and I did, and hope that whenever they're close by, they stop in, even if its only for a few hours...

    Strange Spring

    Yesterday was the first sunny day in at least 3 weeks without rain and I finally got to take a few pictures. The strange thing about this spring is that I still have 2 dozen of Gold, House, and Purple Finches at my place. They are not supposed to be here, at least I never seen them that late...

    Help needed in NC

    I can't figure out what kind of warbler/vireo? this is. Been coming to my garden for the past few weeks, but I never get a good look, it is always in the thicket or way up in the willow tree. Hangs out with the Kinglets and is just as peppy, never sitting still. Thanks

    Well folks, it has been very cold and windy the past 2 days, and since I was freezing my butt off at the house, chasing a Ruby Crowned Kinglet and a Nuthatch around, and not getting very far, I decided to take a ride over there to see what's up. So, Pepper and me got over there and where right...

    Well, yesterday I did have a few beers and watched all my regulars (Downy and Red Bellied Woodpecker, Juncos, Cardinals, Titmice, Chickadees, Wrens, and Doves, but it was to dark to take pictures (did I tell you how much I hate daylight savings Time?). Oh, well, the Budweiser tasted good. Went...

    My new Homestead (Wednesday - Friday)

    Got there late on Wednesday, and it was already too hot to do anything, so I just shot a few pics of a Brownheaded Nuthatch, and a Hairy Woodpecker, and went home.

    My new Homestead (Tuesday -Friday)

    Well, I am feeling a little better about the whole thing. I went back and forth with the inspectors and we finally figured a way to place the house in the right spot (for them), but I had to cut a bunch of Hickory and Oak trees out, but we saved a lot too. I finally seen the first Northern...
