November 26 through December 10, 2016

I'm going to start with shots I took this morning and move back to the end of fall.



The shot above of the American Robin was planned. I didn't realize I'd caught a bird in the next shot until I uploaded to my computer.



The frost on my car almost looks like wrapping paper to me.



I took the next few shots at work with my cell phone.



The clouds were wonderful.



I wish I had my camera with me but my cell phone does a fair job.



I took the next shot after I got home with my camera.



I love capturing robins with wide open mouths.



I try to give the birds fresh water in the winter as well as the summer.



There are a lot of robins although in the winter I usually see them in the trees more that at the bird bath.



I didn't even see the titmouse below until after I took the picture of the robin.



The next one is a rufous sided towhee (female).



I can't remember what kind of woodpecker I caught below.



I think the next bird is a grackle.



I like the hint of vivid color.



Male cardinals are one of my favorite birds to capture when it snows. It hasn't snowed here yet and didn't turn very cold until this past week.



Next are finches, a sparrow (I think) and an american robin.



A couple of days after I took the shot below the leaves fell off the trees in a hard rain.



The next shot was taken at the Neuse River trail.



As I keep mentioning we had an unusually late fall but the leaves have finally fallen.



Last but not least is my neighbor's Japanese Maple.
