One nice thing about studio side is that I’m very close to all the dinosaurs. I was hanging at the window when this Downy decided to have her grooming session on the tree right outside my window. Click for full size.
I’m supposed to be ‘resting’ (meaning don’t move much) for six effing weeks. The unhappiness of that was mitigated today by a gorgeous, very young Downy boy, who was braving the tray in the face of finch hordes, grackles, bluejays, robins, and much older, bossier woodpeckers. Click for full size!

Pye came back, and this time I got the glare which translates to “Oh. I remember you. Annoying.” He did allow me many shots today though. And his permission helped me to defocus on the crazy making pain of the torn muscles/cracked rib/wtfever I’ve done to myself. Click for full size!
Early this morning, I noticed my favourite Grackle was back, Pye, who is leucistic. Pye is extremely touchy in the presence of a camera, so it’s not easy getting a photo. I do know how to get him to show up though, Pye has a serious weakness for any type of baked goods, so I baited the tray with muffin and waited. He finally showed, and hasn’t become more tolerant of shutter noise. Click for full size.

Oh, what a day. Nothing makes me quite as happy as the day the Grackles return. I love them so. A joyous day. Click for full size.

Wonderful shots from Charly, who is also surrounded by burgeoning Spring, including some rather bossy Wagtails. Click for full size!

Yesterday, I had the joy of watching, and capturing a young male Downy Woodpecker, perched in the Lilac, making the portentous decision to invade the finch filled feeder tray. I was lucky enough to get the start of the takeoff, but missed the flight, in spite of continuous shooting. Click for full size!

There were two Robins, both male, and yet, we still have a wealth of Dark-eyed Juncos! The Robins were being uncharacteristically shy, so not great shots.
