20160523_Monochrome Monday-3 — A red winged blackbird sings his heart out. I was so glad to see this bird singing, as the song has been tormenting me from the bushes for years, and I could never figure out who was making the sound until this past weekend.

20160523_Monochrome Monday-2 — A bit of a silly photo; the bird taking flight looks like a turtle to me 🙂

2016-05-01: What I’ve seen this week

The back yard continues to get busier, as more and more birds are heading into town. The warm weather has also meant trips to the garden centre to start sprucing up the yard, and getting some colourful flowers to contrast the sea of green.

This weekend has flown by, and there is still much to do, so I will leave it at that and get to the photos.

Wishing everyone a wonderful week!

20160501_What I've seen this week-9 — Not the sharpest photo, but nice to have evidence of a few rufous hummingbirds getting along, and sharing the feeder.

20160501_What I've seen this week-10 — A pileated woodpecker seen on a morning walk.

20160501_What I've seen this week-7 — The purple finches have arrived, and along with the yellow pumped warbler, are filling the yard with lovely songs.

20160501_What I've seen this week-8 — The yellow pumped warbler – he’s quite a shy one!

20160501_What I've seen this week-5 — From the trunk up… I have no idea what type of tree this is, but it was one of the things that caught my eye while doing a photo walk downtown early this week with my local photo club.

20160501_What I've seen this week-6 — Lovely blossoms, but again I ave no idea what variety.

20160501_What I've seen this week-3 — I saw three deer while out on my bike Sunday afternoon, and then this single one spent a great deal of time in the yard on Monday.

20160501_What I've seen this week-4 — I snapped a few quick photos of this bird before it flew away; I was unable to tell until I got it on the computer that it is a red breasted sapsucker.

20160501_What I've seen this week-2 — Another view of the lovely deer that visited on Monday.

20160501_What I've seen this week — Enjoying the backyard salt lick.

It seems I could only stray from elephants for one Friday! Have a great weekend everyone!

2016-04-11: Monochrome Monday

20160411_Monocrhome Monday — When you’re as tall as a giraffe, there just isn’t an easy way to get a drink. It’s quite a sight to see though, and we timed passing by this giraffe just perfectly. I love the detail visible in the throat area, you just don’t see that when they are the right way up. Okavango Delta, April 2015
