It's a bird kind of day

For some reason, the birds were out today.  I don't know the names of types of birds, but it's fun to see the different varieties.

 

Here is a bird up close and personal.  I took this photo from about 15 feet away.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also caught it when it took off.

 

It certainly was a large bird.  On the other end of the spectrum.  As I was walking near our back fence, this fly stood sill long enough for me to get a shot of it.

A few days ago there was just two ducks out back.  Appears another one has shown up.

 

Our snowy egret friend as back this morning as well.

I don't know what these birds are, but saw them out back today as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And as always, our deer friends were here.
