Purposely did not center the flower. Makes it a bit more dramatic. What do you think?

The bird feeders were busy! The house sparrows will empty the suet feeder (the one that looks like a log) and then devour the seeds in the other feeder. There is a constant wave of birds going back and forth from feeder to fence, fence to feeder.

Two views of a red-tailed hawk. Yesterday there were three of these hawks flying around the small field behind our house, looking for dinner. Love the powerful beauty of the hawks. ❤️

Having some gray weather days to start off 2026. This photo is from 2025 - Blue jay enjoying the sunlight.
He does look kind of smug, as if to say, "Yes, I AM beautiful." 😉

Wind, snow, and dropping temperatures. Needed a picture from warmer days. Here is a male house sparrow warming himself in the sun. Photo taken mid October '25.

Dark-eyed Junco posing for the picture. Or he is just wondering what the thing point at him is. 🤷‍♀️

While outside taking photos of the sparrows, bluejays and cardinals in the backyard I looked up and saw the bald eagle and coopers hawk (?) flying overhead. They circled a couple of times before they flew off.

This hawk was sitting on the back fence. I noticed one of his claws was sticking out of his feathers. First time I had seen that. Found out they do this from a commenter on one of my posts 20 days ago. First time I've seen this.
