New Bird

Bird #57 for the year is the Black-and-white Warbler. We were taking a walk through the Olmsted Woods at the National Cathedral when I saw this bird and was so excited to snap some pictures of it. I was excited because it makes bird #57 for the year which passes my total for last year of 56. Yay!

Community Garden

Today we took a walk around the neighbor where Warren lives. There’s a great community garden near by. We’ve been there several times. I always take my camera in hopes of seeing some new birds. I don’t often see a new bird but I sometimes get some good shots of birds I’ve already seen before. I also get some great flower shots as well. Here are a few photos I took on our walk.

New Birds

I’ve photographed a few new birds that I haven’t added to my list yet this year. I am up to 55 birds so far this year. I need to get out and find more birds!

Feeding Baby Robin

Today we went walking on the Glover Archbold Trail looking for birds when we saw a baby robin. After watching it awhile we noticed the mother was coming over and feeding it at different times. I stayed and decided to record a little video of the mother feeding the baby robin.

Red-eyed Vireo

Last week I went bird watching and photographed this bird. I didn’t know what it was and ended up relying on Reddit to help me figure it out. After a day or so I found out it was a Red-eyed Vireo. So this is bird #51 for the year.
