Project 365 5-3 through 5-16-2013

HI!! Oops, looks like I got a bit behind, shocker! Lots going on here in both my personal life and all around me. I wont go into details now, but sometime down the road I will fill you in. I am still going strong with my Project 365. As many of you know, I am focusing mainly on birds and other wildlife for my Project 365, although I will throw in an occasional person, sunset or anything else that I think is worthy. On to the pictures, there will be a lot of them!

5-3
Imagine my surprise to see the Solitary Sandpiper in a puddle in the woods. This bird is named this because it migrates alone. Bird number 96 on my Audubon Life List.

5-4
Palm Warbler, I was very excited to see this beautiful little bird. Bird number 97 on my life list!

5-5


Walking along the railroad tracks to see the eagles, when this little bird came chasing me all puffed up. This is why, 4 beautiful eggs in a nest on the ground. Sadly, raccoons destroyed them a couple days later.

5-6
Male Goldfinch molting its winter feathers and getting summer colors in.

Eastern Towhee bird number 98 for my life list! i am excited to be closing in on number 100!

Osprey came a little too close to the eagles nest...

A simple branch made extraordinary due to the lighting at dawn.

Scarlett Tanager bird number 99 for my life list. Was not expecting to see this beauty. Not a great shot, but good enough to see what it is!!
