Five On The Wing – #42

It’s hard to think of better things

when watching birds fly on the wing

the wind so strong it blows them here

in dips and circles and far and near.

Belted Kingfisher
(hunting the backyard marsh pond)

 

Red-breasted Nuthatch
(my pair just left week ago, they were a joy!)

 

Blue Jay
(I always hear & know when they are around)

 

Western Cattle Egret
(they started arriving last week)

 

Cedar Waxwings
(one of my favorite year-round birds to photograph)
