    The redpoll seems to be saying, "I'm in charge here, and don't anyone dare question my authority!"

    The bird feeder in winter is an endless source of fascination. I always smile when I see the cardinals, who at first present a very dignified appearance, but then you catch them dribbling their seeds.

    Mark, I do not recall the name of that bird. I took it at the Jacksonville, FL zoo. Does anyone know it?

    We have a Northern Flicker, too. Lousy pic, though. This guy waits for his food every day and if I'm not out there on his schedule, he hammers on our metal soffit. Incredible racket.



    Feasting Cardinal.



    This little guy plunks himself down in the middle of the seed and gorges.

    That's it! I have that in my memory. That is just beautiful. It has such a warm and inspiring mood. It captures the world as a wonderful place. Hope that's in a gallery or a magazine somewhere.

    Default Western Grebe

    Although not a great shot (hey, it was a point-and-shoot APS camera:), this was only the 13th sighting of a Western Grebe in Virginia (according to the Virginia Society of Ornithology).



    And this was about the zillionth sighting of my 5am alarm clock from the same lake years ago:
