It's just for the BIRDS! (yeah, more bird pictures...)

Hey all. I took a birthday walk today and did a little bird hunting. I think I like this hobby because it is TOTALLY FREE! Also, it involves the outdoors which I want to get more of.



Well, today I saw a LOT of cardinals. Some some junkos, a small "herd" of birds chirping up a storm in a thicket, until I got too close, then all was quiet! I saw a hawk- probably a red tailed hawk but not certain, a male and female downy woodpecker, and something I had no idea what it was, a RUBY CROWNED KINGLET. That was cool! Just a pretty little greenish bird. I really had to look through the book awhile before I matched it, but it was an exact match.



Here are some pictures.
