Lunch in the Garden
Yikes! It’s been a month! I need to update the blog. Today we went to the Bishop’s Garden at the National Cathedral to have lunch and check out some of the spring flowers. It was a gorgeous day and all the tulips were out! I also saw a couple of new birds! And all this on a Tuesday because my husband is on Spring break.
More Birds
Today I went birdwatching and found and photographed three more birds for 2022.
#9 Red-tailed Hawk
#8 Tufted Titmouse
#7 Downy Woodpecker – Female
Bird Count
It’s time to start the bird count again. Last year wasn’t the best. I only photographed 36 birds. That is up from the last two years but still not the best. So today was a warm cloudy day but I was able to get out and get the count started. I photographed 6 birds on this first day. Here are the ones I saw:
#6 Song Sparrow
#5 Mourning Dove
#4 American Robin
#3 Northern Mockingbird
#2 Northern Cardinal
#1 Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
