Winged Observations

 

I enjoy watching and listening to the birds I find around me.  Here are a few I've seen in the last few days.  This Gilla Woodpecker was chipping away on a palm tree in the courtyard where I live.  I heard him first and then I saw him.

This little sparrow was singing his heart out just outside my balcony.  I moved rather stealthily to get the photo and not scare him away.

I spotted this busy little hummingbird hovering around some aloe blooms.  I was able to get several snaps of it before if flew off in another direction.


When I took a walk past the golf course, I saw this heron sitting on the water's edge and watching the aquatic activity.  

I love having such a variety of birds near where I live.
