Heron's Fishing

 In a sunny morning at the wetland, a Great Blue Heron was staring the water.


"I am hungry."🐟?


With a splash,
"I  striked a fish!"πŸ‘


The fish skewered with the beaks,
"Ready for breakfast."☺️🎢



"It's already down in my throat."πŸ˜‹

Backyard Birds

The fuchsias are in bloom.  Anna's Hummingbird likes to drink the nectar.



"My favorite flower."πŸ‘


"My favorite is blueberries."πŸ˜„



"My favorite is roasted sunflower seeds."😍

Note:  Black-headed Grosbeak visited me after many years of  absence.  Many trees are gone due to development.  It is hard for them to come to my backyard.πŸ˜₯

Hot and Dry

  Oregon has been dry this season.   At the wetland, many birds are nesting.


Brown-headed Cowbird: "I am worried about the water supply here.  
We need a lot of bugs to feed the babies."




House Finch:  "So far it is ok for my family.  Look my kid(left) is growing up."



Eurasian Collard-dove "I do not come here often, but is it a good place to stay?"

Big Bird

 One day at the wetland, I was taking a picture of  a heron.  Then I noticed something moving at the far end. What is it?😎


"I am a big bird."πŸ¦…


"My morning routine to fly over the water."πŸ¦…πŸŽΆ


"You are lucky to see me here today."πŸ€©πŸ‘☮️

Summer Backyard

 A summer bird, Rufous Hummingbird, stops over once in a while.


"I love these hotlips."


Bewick's Wren is busy, sand bathing.

"Not a dead bird.  Feel so good."

"I need to clean my feathers."



"My favorite summer flowers are back. "
