We will post some of our favorite, more recent pictures here first! |
9/5/2009 Cape May, NJ offered up a beautiful day and the birds were swarming. Especially prevalent were Eastern Kingbirds - hundreds easily. We were excited to capture a Nashville Warbler , a Black-and-white Warbler , an American Redstart in a warning pose, a White-eyed Vireo , a Downy Woodpecker , a Great Crested Flycatcher , a male Baltimore Oriole with a juv., a Red-eyed Vireo , a Ruby-throated Hummingbird (a juv male), and a Veery ! To say we enjoyed the day is an understatement! |

9/6/2009 Hockessin, DE Woodpeckers were coming through on migration. Caught a beautiful Hairy Woodpecker , a White-breasted Nuthatch , a Red-bellied Woodpecker , and a Northern Flicker troupe - stunning! A Song Sparrow and juv peeked out along with a Red-eyed Vireo. |
9/12+13 Delaware had some beauties coming through in migration. Of note, a Clay-colored Sparrow ! Also seen: an American Redstart family who seemed to have adopted a Northern Parula and a Cape May Warbler . An immature male Indigo Bunting refused to come out into the open only half-dressed. A green Heron , a Northern Cardinal , a Tufted Titmouse with a spider sac (?), and a House Wren made it a party! |
