Little Winter Birds at Blackwater NWR
I got a chance to spend a few hours last week at Blackwater NWR on the day after our area had been pounded with frigid cold, gale winds two days prior.
The little winter birds were out and about in full force! Everyone was hungry and excited with the warm sun, no winds, and temps in the low 40’s.
Northern Mockingbird
American Robin
Downy Woodpecker
Red-breasted Nuthatch
(not so great a shot BUT a new lifer for me!)
Song Sparrow
There were so many others I missed! During this time of year, it’s not always so easy to capture our little winter birds who hide so well. So this day seeing their presence and action made my visit even more enjoyable.
