Yeah, the winter doldrums suck. We've barely made it out. One time we did, I accidentally erased the photos. So here I sit at the end of January with 8 birds photographed and no amphibians or reptiles. It has been an awful month. But I shant whine anymore... we're planning on having a bang-up year. It's just... who knows when it will start?
The #1 bird on the year was a good find. We were driving towards our usual January 1st pond when we noticed a hole in a tree looked occupied. We pulled over and went to take a look. A #1 Screech Owl? Yes, please! We saw none last year!
The rest of the eight were mostly usual suspects... Robins, geese, Mallards. Here are some of the shots.
That's it. Ta.
January and February do suck. Glad we are half way thru these two shitty months. Better days are coming ... we hope!
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the screech owl.
