In the Beginning of Spring

 Lately I had not seen a Red-tailed Hawk.  But today was different.

"I just came back to the wetland now that spring is coming."😄

Bufflehead, male(Right):  "I am here during the cold months."🦆🪿👍

Greater Scaup, female: "I just arrived here."

Green-winged Teal:  "We have been here for a while."😊

Snow Day

Last two days we had snow and ice.  Many offices were closed and I had to cancel my medical appointment.  The bird bath had 1 inch of snow in the backyard.

Birds are busy trying to find something to eat when snowing.

Yellow-rumped Warbler:  "I am hungry."

Ruby-crowned Kinglet:  "I waited for snow to stop."

Anna's Hummingbird:  "I am avoiding  the wind."  

Busy Backyard Friends

 My backyard is still busy.

"I live here.  I love the cold weather." Oregon Junco😉

"I come here everyday, too." Black-capped Chickadee😁

"This winter has been warm, so I am still here.  

On a nice day, I can take a bath." Golden-crowned Sparrow👍

One Sunny Day

Even on a cold day, some little birds are around at the wetland.

Anna's Hummingbird, male:  "Yes.  I am one of the tough little birds."👍

 

Ruby-crowned Kinglet:  "Me, too."😎

Red-tailed Hawk:  "I am big and tough!"🌞🦅
