Today is National Bird Day! I didn’t know that when I took the pictures of the birds below. I saw them all early this morning. As you know I like to keep track of the birds I see. I’m keeping a count. As of today my number is three!

Here is the first bird I have photographed in 2013. The Tufted Titmouse. Saw it out the window first thing this morning and just had to snap a few shots. This is the best one I could get. He was jumping from branch to branch and it was hard to get a good shot of him. 2013 Bird Count: 1

Here is a set of House Finches. They were out yet another window. I think that’s a juvenile house finch with them. 2013 Bird Count: 2

The last bird I saw today was the Pileated Woodpecker. Saw him in the same tree as the finches. His red head really stood out and was easy to see. 2013 Bird Count: 3
