Foto Friday

This little guy held on for dear life for about 15 minutes.


I *think* he is an American Goldfinch.  We were still able to see him hopping around our yard five days later and looking a little less downy.  This picture was taken of my birdbath in the front yard.

Foto Friday and Great Backyard Bird Count



Pine Siskins at our feeder.

This may not seem a very exciting picture, but for a bird lover, to have any bird come to your feeder for the first time is fun.  It is also wonderful to be able to add another bird to your Life List.




 

  Thanks to our new friends at Renaissance who let us participate in Foto Friday.  Check out the other great pics!

It is ONE WEEK from today that the GBBC starts.  This means you have not missed it!  Click here to read the rules.  You only have to do a minimum of 15 minutes, although once you get started bird counting, you and your kids  might be hooked!  There are also educational ideas for this week that you can use in schooling and for nature study. 

If you enjoy the GBBC, you might want to consider participating in a monthly Bird List called Tweet and See.  Click here to learn more about it.
