This bird stops by to visit all the time now. I really need to get a better camera.

Chew to a view
Apparently I did not raise the blinds fast enough this morning.
This is the window that leads to the patio, no screen so Bou and Binki can fly outside when they feel like it. If it’s chilly, I leave it shut and Bou sits on her window perch. (The blue on the window are watercolor flowers so Bou knows when fly through and when not to 
I was going to paint it to look like stained glass but I never got around to it.)
An Egret checks out the damage
Two weekends ago someone came out here with a bulldozer and ripped out 1/3 of the trees surrounding the pond. The Egret and I aren’t happy about it.

Meet My New Friend - Johnny Bravo
OK, so I have been lamenting the subbing I have been getting from the local red birds for months now. This weekend, on a whim, I decided to take an old Corel plate and put it on top of a ladder. I thought it would make for an interesting angle and let me get more sky and trees instead of porch in the background.
What an awesome shot!
Damn these birds
So after months here and seeing only one lone woodpecker, I’m sitting here working on my new web site (sans birds), I look up and what do I see out my window? A Northern Flicker.
Name that bird!
This was the last photo I took but it came out the best so I am putting it first. I ran out thinking it was the eagle but maybe an osprey? What do you guys think?

Boo Boo has become a excellent Eagle Photo Opp alarm. The eagle has been flying really low lately and I have missed him more than once, luckily Boo Boo sounded the alarm early enough today and I was able to get these shots 
The Eagle Has Landed
Aha! He landed in a tree outside my window! If you look closely you can see him in the upper right hand corner. I snuck outside with the camera but he spotted me and took off. So far these are the best shots I think
Baby Eagle Came Back
Last night around 7 Boo Boo started screaming her head off and I look out the window and the baby eagle has landed in a tree right by the house!! I dumped my purse out on the bed scrounging for the camera and ran outside, he sat there for a few minutes and let me take photos – what a sweetie! The one above is the best out of 212 (rapid fire camera setting)… LOL Then off he went… bye baby eagle
The mother still eludes me….
