In between work

Maturing grackle on the food search
Scream at parent for food. Found peanut, but didn't know what to do with it..
Much easier this way, parental catering service.
At my feet, never still, the female redstart.
Flicker in a rut.

Humming right along

This is never easy. Working reverse side, three hummers, also facing off and sun beating down on space, heat stroke potential.
More hummer images will be posted.

This and that food

Off to find berry- eaters. Okay, whole wheat bread will do too.

Now for the berries, immature starling
Same berries... immature robin
Same berries, young catbird
Same berries- red-eyed vireo
                               And picking up berries bits, the droppings, the one-second rat.

Berries begone

I love being talked to by a catbird.
I know, I know, you want the berries.
Female scarlet tanager grabs what she can.
Too hot for much shooting. Brought home blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and grapes for lunch. I wonder why. Of course I can top my berries off with a dab of vanilla ice cream.
