Remember the old movie The Birds.Or planning their attack
Oh hell yeah! Freaky
So a friend came and got me and we went on a day trip. She got on a 1 lane road in the Coast Range of Oregon, and for the next about 3 hours we never went over 25 and at times was 10-15 mph as it was a twisty turny road that at times was gravel. Much to my embarrassment, I had to have her pull over and I lost my lunch. Car sick? IDK but then I felt better, and some of the scenery was breathtaking. Notice the cave in this picture
Out in the middle of the forest we found a fish ladder...
Just so pretty...

CDR Virtual Vacations presents On this day 2020: We took a boat trip about an hour and a half from Auckland seafront to the amazing island nature reserve of Tiritiri Matangi Island and had a guide to help us.
There are no mammalian predators on the island and the birds, while cautious, don’t fear humans. Little Blue Penguin chicks huddled in a nest box awaiting their parents return were the best possible start.
Little Blue Penguin chicks
North Island Saddleback
Giant Weta (a huge cricket)
Kakariki (in Maori language Kakariki means green) or Red Crowned Parakeet
Bellbird
Pukeko (Swamphen) a relation of the comical looking ones we saw in Melbourne and our native Moorhen
Kereru (NZ Woodpigeon) these are big pigeons. Much bigger than our native Woodpigeons.

Snow has made an unexpected appearance here today.
There's quite a heavy fall at the moment but I don't think it will last long.
Good morning all.
I was just about to sit out and do my Garden Bird Count for the RSPB (an annual thing they ask people to do every year to check on the populations of garden birds) but snow stopped play.
I've left my wildlife camera out there to help.
I have quite a variety of birds that make a regular visit and this year even lots of blue t-ts which I've never seen here before. The blackbirds have tripled (now have 3) there's also starlings wood pigeons, collard doves, lots of house sparrows, and a bossy robin or 2. The unwelcome visitor is the sparrow hawk - but even he needs a meal.
I'm going to my sisters for lunch this afternoon so looking forward to that.
Hope everyone has a peaceful Sunday.
Stay warm!!!

I would love to be a lighthouse keeper there (it's probably automated now though).
I don't think I would ever get bored of watching the birds.
We have blackbirds, blue t-ts, chaffinch, greenfinches, great spotted woodpecker, house sparrows, collared dove, woodpigeons, magpie but in quite small numbers due to a Sparrowhawk kill on Friday. Everything is keeping a low progile at the moment!
Why is the weather always lousy on Big Garden Birdwatch weekend?
My yard is certified by Audubon Society to be a wildlife refuge for birds. I get quail, blackbirds, chickadees. Goldfinches, house sparrows, Toehees, Juncos, Bluejays, Hawks and Falcons, here's more, but my coffee is ready. I have 8 feeders around and lots of birds
Birdfeeders = Squirrels = Destruction
No squirrels here ever. I have mega rats, voles, mice, skunks, 'coons, 'possums, foxes and Cougers. ha!
OH that is so inviting! Squirrels are the worst!
Yep, I have two of these. One for just gardening pix, one for getting wet in the water. ?♂️ There are some really funny “reviews” of folks who allegedly bought & own one.
Yes.... Alfred Hitchcock - The Birds.
A friend used to be a reporter and for a story he rented one. The photo was of the Southside Regional Medical Center in Petersburg. At a distance of 317 meters away in his photo you can clearly see a television screen with Jeopardy on. You can't read words or anything but you can easily tell it is the jeapordy board. A little rich for my blood, but the one that is in Ferrari red with a special gift bow is on my lottery win list!
