The last of the photos from today...

This little guy was flitting all over the place...I think he is a ruby-crowned kinglet as I saw two of them chasing each other and I saw a spot of red on their heads...and from what I've read the red spot only shows when they are excited...but then don't quote me as I could be wrong too!! lol...

Another one I couldn't get a decent photo of...They were rather large (there were two of them) so I am thinking Hairy Woodpeckers but then again they could be Downy Woodpeckers...lol!



On my walk I found this nest up by the pasture....more than likely last years nest!
I then came home for a bit and just before sunset decided to walk the pasture here at the house...

First thing I spotted...A squirrel. He really thought he was hiding from me, lol...

Then I spotted this guy....
A Thrasher and once again it could be a Long billed Thrasher or a Brown Thrasher...I am really getting disgusted with my photos today as the parts of the bird I need to see for identification did not come out very clear...ugh!! But I did have fun and was excited by all the birds I saw...Spring is definitely in the air here...Now if we could get some rain, sigh!!

I decided to play with the sunset filtering through the Oak trees as I walked home...


Good Night everyone and have a Beautiful weekend!
