I Went Bird Watching

This morning I went bird watching at Huntley Meadows Park in Alexandria. I’ve been there many times. I wasn’t expecting to see to many birds since it’s mid January. I was surprised! I found 10 new birds for this year…some new completely!

#12 Northern Pintail

#11 Rusty Blackbird

#10 Cardinal

#9 Carolina Wren

#8 Canada goose

#7 Swamp Sparrow

#6 Red-Headed Woodpecker

#5 Gadwall

#4 White Breasted Nuthatch

#3 Mallard

New Bird Count

I didn’t finish the year with many birds in 2019. I only photographed 28 birds. That’s one of my lowest counts. Last year was a busy year with things going on. This year I’m determined to get out there and get lots of bird pictures.

I started today with a new count and photographed two birds to start.

#2 Red-bellied Woodpecker

#1 Mourning Dove

New Birds

This morning I went to Huntley Meadows Park in Alexandria to look for some new birds. The water level was really low. I guess we need rain. There weren’t very many birds flying around. Most of the ones I saw, I’ve already photographed. However, I did find two new birds that I haven’t photographed yet this year. They are:

#28 Snowy Egret

#27 Solitary Sandpiper

When I got home I made myself I delicious grilled cheese sandwich. I love grilled cheese sandwiches.

Back To Birding

I know I have posted for a month but life gets in the way in seems. This morning I went bird watching. I heard a lot of birds and saw a good number but only found these new ones. At least I’m adding to the count.

#26 Eastern Towhee

#25 Great-Tailed Grackle
