I have to admit that this week is dedicated to all the 'missed' Kodak bird moments this week.

Then, there were the 8 grossbeaks both male and female in the main feeder while the remainder were socially distanced in the sculptural dead Japanese Maple as they awaited a space at the feeder.
Next the red male cardinal, a red bellied woodpecker and oriole showed off their stuff fighting over the jelly at the same popular feeder.
Yesterday we took Balto for a walk in Goose Island where all the main roads are being recovered but that didn't deter 2 V flying flocks of pelicans overhead. Very awesome.
An iridescent blue indigo bunting showed up this morning at the main feeder . See below*
Yep, I am missing a lot of bird 'Kodak' moments... I must be slipping.
* Since this posting a purple finch which we haven't seen in eons show up and an additional indigo bunting!

Last week's FOTO FRIDAY was A MOVING
I'm looking forward to being in Minnesota in June for the birds. We don't have so many different varieties here in Arizona and the neighbors complain if I feed them because of the bird poop. It's close living and I want to be a good community member so I only have the hummingbird feeders up. So I really like to indulge them in Minnesota!
ReplyDeleteYesterday after a rainfall , the feeders were crazy with colorful birds. 2 Indigo Buntings at the same time, 4 pairs of Baltimore orioles, 2 prs of cardinals and 4/5 sets of rose breasted Grossbeaks. AND the topper was a bird we haven't seen in a long while in the End of the Rainbow Valley, a purple finch. It was quite a party!
