Juvenile Cooper’s Hawk On A Hot Summer Day   4 comments

The summer heat helps bring a lot of birds to our patio water fountain, including this juvenile cooper’s hawk.
He/she has spent much time in the olive tree, which looks down on the fountain and bird feeders. 
They haven’t learned yet that other birds know they are there, so waiting will get he/she nowhere.

A male cardinal
Bright red in the morning sun
A year-round neighbor.

Not seen, but nearby
the muted colored female
Proceeds with caution.

And watching birds at the feeder.

Three Stages Of Hummingbird Feeding   2 comments

Hummingbird Feeder Art by kenne

I’ve been watching the pattern hummingbirds seen to follow coming to the feeder on our patio, especially
when I’m on the patio. I divided it into three stages, and I created a short video of those stages.
