            I  have just started seeing a variation of birds in the past several weeks ago, and I hope to be posting more posts now!

23 July 2012 -- male Painted Bunting (Daddy)

Looks like I forgot that Nicholas had already posted a picture of a male painted bunting last month.  But here's my post anyway...

After months of trying, I finally got a picture of the male painted bunting at our backyard feeder.  The first time we saw this bird (a few years ago), we weren't really into birding, and we thought that maybe this was someone's in-house bird that happened to get out from its cage or something.  Since then, it is one of our favorite guests at our feeder because of its great colors.  The female, while not having as many colors, is just as nice to look at.

Get Off The Bird feeder!

             At my house I saw a Squirrel upside down on the bird feeder!

A Hummingbird Nest!

    With a new hummingbird feeder, we have spotted a hummingbird nest with two eggs in the nest in a side field

of ours!  We have also seen numerous hummingbirds at the new feeder that we got.

  We saw a diamond-back rattlesnake 2 feet from our driveway dead with blood on its stomach on 5/27/12.  There were flies and gnats eating the snake!

A New Bird!

I just saw this bird at the bird feeder that I haven't seen before.  If you think you know what type of bird this could be, please share it with us.
