Bath Hour!!! Activities At The Local Pond

Yesterday was a beautiful day lots of sunshine. Today of course it absolutely poring rain outside so this gave me the perfect opportunity to put in some quality editing time....lots of work this editing but I must say rewarding all at the same time. Here are some cute shots of some of our local birds enjoying the sunny day and having a lovely bath. I enjoyed watching them it was quite relaxing and I could help but smile.

My Thanksgiving Walk ~ Bushtit's N Spotted Towhee

Morning everyone I'm glad to see that all of you enjoyed my post on the Cedar Wax Wings, beautiful aren't they. Soon after I got those shots of them I heard the lovely sounds of a group of Bushtit's in the same area so again off I went in search. Now in the spring I managed to find a nest and took a little series of them building and coming and going from their nesting sight. Unfortunately I didn't get a very good shot of the bird itself......today was my lucky day here was one finally at rest at the very top of this tree. These little guys are hard to get snaps of they are constantly on the go...jumping and feeding on bugs. So this was a definite treat to get this shot. Not far from them was a Male Spotted Towhee screaming his head off that I was stalking them..he was none to pleased to see me so close to him. As you can see here in the bottom shot. He was definitely yelling at me...LOL

Enjoying the Sun
