Growing Up

 At the wetlands, pretty yellow Wildflowers were in bloom.

Many babies are growing up now.

"We are three Barn Swallow babies."😍

"Right now, we are eight Great Blue Heron babies.  Can you count us?"😍

Flowers with Birds

The other day when I was out in the garden (wearing a bluish flower garden hat), Anna's Hummingbird  came close to me.

"I know you.  My nectar drinking time is here."😋

Lately Chestnut-backed Chickadee often comes here.

"I need to drink in the fountain.  I know someone is hiding there."😁

Lavender colored rose is in full bloom now.😎👍

Not Always Hot Here

 At the wetlands sometimes it is hot; othertimes it is cold.

Song Sparrow:  "Today is hot👍

Tree Swallows:  "It is windy and  a bit cold."🤔

Cedar Waxwing:  "Today is just right."🤩

Backyard Scene

 A female Mallard returned to my backyard.

"Today I decided to stop over  by myself.  My kids are growing up fast."

"I am a juvenile Brown-headed Cowbird."

"I am Anna's Hummingbird.  I am drinking the blueberry nectar."

Summer at the Wetlands

More wild flowers are in bloom.  

Before the Black Phoebe was in the reverse light, so today I walked in the opposite direction to take a better photo.👍

Black Phoebe:  "You can see me better."😁

Black-headed Grosbeak:  "I am a summer bird.  You can listen to my singing."😍
