There are a lot of birds around the neighborhood and they have been having a grand time flying about, perching in the trees, hunting for food and singing in the rain. The blue jays compete with the squirrels for acorns. The bird feeder below is in our neighbor's yard. The images were captured over the past two weeks. All have been cropped and some were enhanced with PhotoShop due to the poor light on cloudy days.
They are all nice, but the second and the last images are my favorites -- and the last one takes top honors. I love the bird in flight and the grain of the fence.

I began this blog in 2008 after I retired. My main interest is photography and so most posts will contain photos, along with brief comments or explanations. I participate in several weekly blogs and occasionally post my own recurring themes. Occasionally I throw in comments, kudos or complaints about the world situation.
