I liked the addition to the butterfly drawing on a greenway path.
I recently saw a video interview with authors who were asked about where they found hope.
Great Blue Heron Below
One of them said he found hope in nature.
Toad Below
I guess that's true for me too although there's a lot to worry about in terms of threats to the environment.
Brown Thrasher Below
The American Robins are constant visitors to the water I provide on my deck.
The juvenile is trying to get the adult to share below.
Below is another juvenile American Robin who managed to find a time when the adult wasn't hogging one of the baths.
The mourning dove below was taking a rest in the sun after a bath.
I think the bird below is a female house finch although it could be an immature male house finch.
The catbird below is resting on the deck but it seems to be warning off any potential company.
The resting robin is another juvenile.
The catbird is having a bath below. I also see carolina wrens, chickadees, nuthatches and bluebirds in the deck baths but I haven't managed to photograph them this season.
I seem to have a lot of shot of the juvenile robins. They crack me up.
The one below is close to adulthood.
I photographed 3 rabbits together but I liked the solo shot the best.
The female rufous sided towhee took a long bath. I also shot a male rufous sided towhee but that shot didn't turn out.
