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.
DAILY PICS VOL. 64
I can sure see why Angele! What an adorable little bird!
yes he is, and it didn't take long for him to find you.
Nice!
Wonderful pic of a beautiful bird angele!
Thanks for starting the new thread!
Oh my sybil those temps and wind chills are awful! I'll try not to complain too much when we're getting the 16 degree wind chills in the coming week. Nice pics!
Bev,Wonderful job on the painting!
Nice pics GM!!

This is a picture taken yesterday. This Cardinal grabbed up a peanut.
Today, it's snowing very hard and cold. Must be February. The Pennsylvania "weather whistle piggy", Punxsutawney Phil, saw his shadow on Groundhog Day and predicts six more weeks of this crap!! (It was overcast and freezing rain on Groundhog Day, go figure.)
GG

Dragonfly, Good job on your painting! I've painted a few pictures of birds too. A Cedar Waxwing and one of Red-winged black bird. You have nice cardinals subjects there.

Thanks Burn!
Brrr sounds cold to me and I was complaining about it being 45!
You don't know what cold is! Temperatures of -75 F have been reported during the last three nights in Tok, AK, near the Canadian border. It's warm here in Anchorage, I've only had -10 F.

You are correct! I am spoiled I guess living near the coast! GM :)
Great pics everyone. I am glad it doesn't get really cold here. I still have tropical Water Lilies blooming outside. It barely made it down to 33 degrees so far this winter. Usually mid 40s at night. AC running now at 81 degrees.
Four birds from this morning, one from a while back.
