Birds of Maine

I am going to start documenting some of the beautiful birds I find just outside my window.  I suffer from a few chronic health conditions that require me to have quite a lot of bed rest.  Luckily, my bedroom window faces the yard with all my lilac bushes and bird feeders.  I often lean out the open window and use my zoom lens to capture a number of different birds dining on my cheap feeders.   I have quite a collection of pictures and I am trying to learn the identities of all the different species that frequent my yard.  Over the past couple years there has been quite a variety and I have a lot of great photos.   I will share them here, with the tag BIRDS.

Here are the bushes and feeders as seen from my window.











The Dogwood tree (more of a bush since it was hit by a truck 5 years ago)













The cheap blue bird feeders...  popular, like the birds don't even know they are eating at $5.99 feeders.


More soon...  write on!
