Perfect birding morning--blue skies, comfortable temps!

We are still watching this Osprey carefully!
I'm not sure why an Osprey would be hanging around our suburban neighborhood.  The pond is over a mile away and their are no good fishing rivers nearby.  He's enormous and beautiful, but a little scary when circling over and over.  We keep checking on the bunnies!
Caught Daddy Cardinal and the Kinglet in flight.  Pretty awesome how they maneuver in between the feeders : )

We're so happy that a pair of Goldfinches has decided they like our backyard this year.  Of course they get along well with the other finches in the yard, too!


I have never seen a finch this shade before and wonder if it is the elusive Purple Finch we've been reading about.
This Carolina Wren is the life of our backyard.  Always in a good mood and usually singing!
