Freezing Temperature

 The freezing temperature returned in my backyard.   The leaves are changing colors.

Red-breasted Nuthatch:  "The suet helps me to stay warm in the cold weather."😋

Song Sparrow:  "I still like the seeds here."😋

Western Scrub-jay:  "Look at the beautiful red blueberry leaves."🍁

Red-breasted Sapsucker:  "I am a rare visitor, but I heard a commotion here."🎃😁

Autumn Colors

 Yellow and red leaves are everywhere now.🍁

A Cooper's Hawk came back to my backyard after a long absence.🤩

"I wanted to check on the backyard this afternoon. 

 Everybody is already hidden.  I am not popular here."🥲

A few days afterwards, a Red-tailed Hawk was flying up above.

"I love the autumn weather.  Warm, but not hot. 

The sky is so high that I can see far away."👍

Autumn Weather

At the wetlands,  quite a few little birds were flying around the bushes, eating seeds.

 

"I am a Lesser Goldfinch."😋

"I am a Cedar Waxwing and soon moving to a warmer area."☺️

"Who am I? "

"I think I am a Yellow-rumped Warbler, just 

returned from the woods for winter."🍁🎃

Fall Visitor

 Another beautiful sky.

A warm weather helps the fuchsia keep blooming this fall.

Someone came back to my backyard.  There are several of them.

"Every fall I come back here with  my family. 

 My favorite seeds are here."😋

Fall Backyard

 Roses are still in bloom in my backyard (No more fertilizing here.)

 American Robins came back from the woods. 

" It's nice to have a bird bath here."👍

Anna's Hummingbird:  "I still like these hotlips."😋

Fall Migration

 One morning at the wetlands.  Look up high in the fall sky,   Who are they?🤔

"We are American White Pelican, stopping over 

here for a little while, on the way to south."☺️

"Today is a super day. nice and warm."👍

" We are about 20 of us travelling together."🤩

One Fall Day

 A high sky with clouds

The blueberry bush is now changing the color.

House Finches are busy finishing up raising their young.

Right:  "I am big now, but my mom has to feed me still."🥰

" I am getting late going down south.  

Today is warm, so I stopped over.  See you next March."☺️

(note: Rufous Hummingbird is a summer bird here.)
