Tales From the Yard – Part Two – The Watering Hole

Ok it's really not a hole…but it is an aluminum cake pan that we keep water in for critters. I love looking out and seeing all the animals take a drink. I keep my camera on the windowsill, I took off the screen and try to keep the window clean. We just finished the painting inside so this weekend I was cleaning windows and screens while Jeff put new blinds on…so I thought I would share some of the critters that I have spotted at the "watering hole" lately. Here is another part of my Tales From the Yard.

The little yellow bird above, I think is a finch.

This is not the watering hole and this is not a hummingbird, we have been bombarded this year with woodpeckers. It is nuts.

These are hummingbirds, and I wish my camera had a blacklit feature so these would take better pics…grrr…. ok back to the hole.

Happy bunny getting a drink.

Whose butt is that?

Why it is Mr. Roadrunner, I love when he comes to the yard….the lizards…

…not so much. Not sure they are the same roadrunner or not.

He does love the yard though.

We always have lots of doves. Here is one kind.

Then these are younger and different kind.

I can't remember what Jeff thought this was, grackle, the kracken?

Then he got some new feed and I said oh that will bring more variety of birds, and not five minutes later there was a female cardinal.

I haven't seen the male one yet.

There how was that for a fun post?
