Each year I start my bird count over. Last year I ended with 52 birds photographed. I hope to get past that number this year. My husband and I went out for a walk today and I photographed three birds. It’s not much but it’s a start for the new year.
#1 European Starling
#2 Sparrow
#3 American Crow
This morning I heard a different bird sound out our bedroom window. I looked out and saw this group of Cedar Waxwings in a tree. I ran and got my big camera with the big lens and captured this photo. Another bird to add to the list!
#35 Cedar Waxwing
This evening we went to dinner at a restaurant by the Potomac River in Georgetown. While walking along the river we saw lots of birds and ducks. I didn’t have my big camera but I did have my iPhone. I took this picture of a Mallard swimming along. It’s not the best photo but it is another bird to add to the list.
#34 Mallard
I went birdwatching at Huntley Meadows Park in Virginia and photographed 12 new birds! I’m up to 33 for the year now. Yay!

#29 American Crow
#28 Barn Swallow
#27 Blue Heron

I went birdwatching this morning and found two more birds to add to the list. Up to 21 birds now. I need to keep going birdwatching to increase my number!
