Hornets or not?

Do I dare remove them myself or do we call the Orkin man?

Spring Waxwing

Slow Trigger Finger

We've had 3 blue jays frequenting the feeder in the morning. This was my second attempt to get a shot of them. I failed again. The first try was new years morning. I even had a great title in mind for that post - Happy New Years Jay.

Since I'm too slow to catch a decent shot of the jays, you'll just have to settle for the less skiddish and fuzzier chickadee. Here's a stationary maple seed as well. Those I can do.

Learning is Fun

Today I learned that my new camera can take pictures of red dragonflies just like Ranger Paul's.

It takes pictures of red pails too.

The thing I want to know is, can Ranger Paul's new camera take fun pictures?

Imitation

I've heard older siblings are the ones young children most want to imitate. Well, our young child isn't so discriminating.

Luke's Tree

Our Linden (Luke's tree) is blooming and I thought it was pretty. So did the Red Admiral butterfly in the picture below. He and a few cohorts decided the back yard was a nice place to hang out for the afternoon. Guess the butterfly crew and I are more like minded than I thought.
