As a matter of fact, the wife is stretched out across the living room floor with her "good" camera, trying to get "that one shot"....

Keep posting those beautiful pictures. Thanks for sharing them.


WC, That is a Perky-Pet oriole jelly feeder. They are a little pricey, but convenient if you don't have many birds using grape jelly offerings. You can find the brand online. I bought two a few years ago on sale at the local feed store for $13. I put half of a pink grapefruit on top of mine to serve as a dual feeder.

Fresh new arrival at 7:10 AM this morning. The last time, and the first time ever I saw a Black-throated Blue Warbler was 07 May 2012! This one landed for a few seconds before flying off to the north.

The songbird migration peak is over here along Lake Ontario, but shorebirds are starting to trickle in on their way further north for the nesting season.
