My neighborhood

I enjoy watching and photographing the seasonal changes around my block. Having several species of birds visit the feeder is a treat, especially when they venture to feed when I am close by. I like snow pics because the season is so short and the delicate balance of snow tufts on small branches only lasts a few hours after the storm.

Thus wreath has been up at least two years,but we like the color it adds.

The hose and reel added color and contour to the land scape.

This bird watched me closely as it flitted between the feeder and the safety of the trees.

This white breasted nuthatch was searching for bugs in mid winter.It sounded like a wood pecker.

One of my first pics taken with my new zoom lens. I was across the yard when taken.

This bird watched me from the trees and waited to go to the feeder.

I tried taking pics of dripping icicles, but couldn't quite get the depth of field I was trying for.
