Title: My backyard friends
Post by: MAK on 08-Nov-11, 05:36:58 PM
I looked out in my backyard this afternoon to find a bunch of House Sparrows splish splashing in one of my birdbaths. I grabbed my camera and took a walk out there with only my cane to enjoy the bright warm sunshine. Here's a link to a fb album I posted. Enjoy!

Great job, MAK!  Imagine what you will be able to do with the camera and no cane -- won't be long.

Yeap all white faced turkey vultures!  They were an awesome sight.  Can't wait to take a break one of these days and go to our fishing bridge and check on the Osprey who nest right there!  LOVE IT!!

Rich and I love to watch the vultures circling, too.
