Can’t wait to see all your great pictures! I’m getting kicked out of the computer room because Kent has a customer coming over so this is my last post for a bit. Great chance to go outside for a while to take more photos myself.

This is the little bird that started my captivation by bird watching. Many days, as I was returning from hikes photographing wildflowers for DG, there would be some bright orange Orioles flitting around the trees near my home and I wanted to bring them closer for a better view. I looked on the net & found that orioles love oranges so put a sliced one in a tree. A few days later this little bird was enjoying the orange. At first all I saw was his back and I thought it was a plain little wren. When it turned and I saw his bright yellow face & red wing patch I fell in love with bird watching.
