Dark-eyed Junco selfie on the Birdbuddy. A relative rare visit to the feeder. They prefer to forage on the ground.

These are captive birds that are kept by a fisherman and trained to dive and catch fish for him. They can't swallow the fish due to a metal ring aound their neck when they're sent off to dive.

This is Darwin, guarding. To me, he looks thoughtful and just like WInston Churchill. Sadly, Darwin is gone now - but certainly not forgotten.

It is time for the squirrels to start harvesting black walnuts again. Some they will knaw on and eat now, but most will be buried in th garden and lawn.

A little grey tufted titmouse stopped by to check out the new perch extender that I recently installed on the BirdBuddy to make it a bit more accessible for larger birds.

Welcome back, Pieter ...

And after my trip to Scotland I spent a bit of time in the Alps (Engadin), so my backlog of unprocessed/unposted photo's grew even further. My objective is to consider this an opportunity, not as a problem
