American Robins

American Robins visit here in the backyard.  At this time of year, they like to eat my blueberries.  Now that I picked enough, I let them eat as they want.  Sometimes I drop enough berries on the ground for them.



"Thanks a million for the berries."


 

"I can see better on this pear tree."



"Sometimes I bring in a young one."

Friends at the Wetland

  A week ago, a couple of Cedar Waxwings and an American Goldfinch were looking far from the top of the fir tree.


"A nice day to look far away."👍


"A nice day to munch the delicious berries."🤩


Cowbird, male: "A nice day for me, too."🌞


Every bird seems to enjoy being in the wild place."

 A big dragonfly comes to the backyard during the hot summer months.🐝🐞👀




Now is the time for baby birds to appear in my backyard.  This is a House Finch female baby.

Birdbath Friends

 The weather is now very hot for a week (around 100 F).  My backyard finally have one, two, and three white butterflies floating around.



I have three birdbaths in the backyard.  This cement one is heavy and old.  


"I like this one in the shade, though it is shallow."😉😁



"I like it, too.  It hides me for safety."😉👍
