On September weekend mornings, I like to sit on my back porch and observe birdlife in the hedgerow behind my yard.
This morning, I was looking at common birds when I heard a northern flicker call, then soon after I heard something that sounded like A red headed woodpecker. "It would be nice, but its just my imagination" - I thought this to myself as I sipped my coffee. Then, to my amazement, my favorire bird briefly alighted on a treetop behind my house. Wow!
But, it was only for a brief moment.
I have had easy views of hummingbirds daily since late august when I put up my new feeder. Here are some photos:
I slowly noticed that hummingbirds would often perch withing 10 feet of my back porch,,, allowing for great views, especially with my 600mm telephoto lens.
Good fall birding!
