@Giles house finch my mistake. I just got a visual on one of em. Pretty bad photo because I had to use zoom from an awkward position not to scare her off!

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey Awesome!

@twin that’s an amazing pic really

[sabergirl]

Wow, @twin, so cool.

[motojobobo]

@twin excellent job spotting it! Did it wake up/stir when you got so close up for the pic?

[twin]

@motojobobo No it did not wake up.

[twin]

@sabergirl And cute also.

A cute woodpecker in the park close to home

[Oaktavia]

@twin a blonde bat that is super cool. How big was it? Hard to tell from the photo looks not so small.

[twin]

@Cskarev Looks like a Downy Woodpecker.

@Oaktavia About 3 inches long and 2 inches wide est. Was fast a sleep when I saw him.

The misses got me a video bird feeder for Christmas. Now that spring is here I set it up. I love birds. Cardinals are terrific.

In British English, we would say missus unless we meant more then one unmarried female, Which, I guess you could have meant

I believe it’s the same here.

When we were traveling we stayed at a place in TX where a cardinal took particular issue with his reflection in our truck’spassenger side mirror. It got so bad I had to put a bag over the mirror to keep him from trying to kill himself.

Josie got mad at me for getting too close with a camera (sorry Josie!) and Buzzed The Tower.

[Oaktavia]

@seawolf wow, those shots are incredible. It is so hard to get close enough to humming birds to get a decent shot. This reminds me, I need to clean and switch out my feeders.
