Went to the lake today with my grandson to feed the ducks and this Canada Goose was NOT too impressed with what was on the menu. YOUR STALE BREADCRUMBS ARE MAKING ME SICK!!!

It destroyed EVERYTHING 6 miles north of my house. We got 10 minutes of heavy rain and marble sized hail, but NOTHING more than that. So far 24 people are dead within 30 miles of my house. We didn't even lose electricity here. So I will Still be giving my bird reports.

Hi Thornius! I was SO relieved to see your post and find out you were okay. I was worried when I heard that tornados hit the suburbs of Nashville. Take care, patches

That looks like a goldfinch to me, but I could be wrong.

I was thinking the first one was probably a Finch. But wasn't to sure of some of the others. Especially the last one. The last one was a card LOL! HE posed for me to get a shot of him from all angles before flying off LOL~!
I can't wait until I get a field guide! I think I'll order the Sibleys one from Amazon tonight.

I guess I did not look far enough. I just saw the goldfinch the first time through. I dunno what the others are at all though!

Not competition, just a fellow birder. Wish I could get out more but do most of my birding from home. I have a great yard for birds though, on a lake so I get lots of neat stuff. Is this heaven? Wow, just think someday it will be even better. Lin

Triss, it's a male bluebird. He will bring the fledglings to the nest in about 15 days. When the babys get here, I'll put a pic of one of them on here.
