He's checking me out - and not overly pleased with the result.

Just a house sparrow, I know, but pretty nonetheless.

I saw my Red-breasted Nuthatch yesterday, but couldn't get a photo. The White-breasted performed nicely.

There were actually three White-breasted Nuthatches eating suet yesterday.

  3. Looking at your mice pictures, these are the birds that stick around. So winter can't be too far off.

  4. Nice lighting on the House Sparrow - makes one look twice at a bird which not only gets overlooked, but often shooed. Not fair to the birds - not her fault that they got here and figured out to live where few other birds can - like in the city.
