First encounter
A young yellow warbler joyfully perched atop a tree peak
Yellow warbler fledgling
A young yellow warbler bouncing about the trees intrigued by my presence
I am Fledgling…see me fly!
This was the last of our tree swallow babies and I caught this little guy by chance fledging! It was one of the best moments of my life and of his!
Cute little tough guy
After I realized what I was seeing wasn’t a coconut shell in the walkway, I stopped to get a closer look. I was able to take a couple of photos while being “dive-bombed,” “flapped” and “squawked at” by Dad grackle.
Baby Baltimore Oriole waiting to be fed.
I was talking to my neighbour when this little one flew into the bush beside me and I happened to have my camera handy. I left quickly as mama oriole was wanting to feed the baby.
Getting too big for the nest.
