BACKyards Series
Often the facades are maintained and the care erases the soul and the history of the houses and their inhabitants.. maybe the truth lives in the back yards?

What a surprise we had this morning when a Scarlet Tananger came into our backyard. Our backyard does not backup to a forest preserve so this was a rare and welcome visitor for us! First time we have ever seen this in the 28 years we have lived here! Apparently it wanted to try the grape jelly we had out for the Baltimore Orioles.....which have also been very plentiful this year too!

Dans les arrière-cours la vie aussi s'épanouit. Au-delà du grouillement de vie arthropodique des conteneurs à ordures, on peut y croiser des gens qui... Prennent leur temps, à l'abri des regards...
... A l'abri ? Oui. Presque. :-))
It only took a couple years, and approximately a metric-ton of black-oil sunflower seeds, but evening grosbeaks have finally graced my yard with their presence. They've shown up three days straight now.

Sometimes when you go out looking for beauty, you don't have to go further than your own backyard. Rose-Breasted Grosbeak in my yard <3
Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated <3
This is a visitor to our backyard. We also see the adults at times with them. This time only the two young ones were here
This guy came into the backyard yesterday. I went out to make sure the deer could find it's way back over the fence. Instead he started following me around. Had to finally make enough noise for him to leave. Then hung out in the green belt, munching away for about 20 minutes. Before he left, I told him to watch out for the local Cougar.
Adult male Pine Warbler stopped by my backyard while Bandit and I were busy sitting on the deck. Glad I wasn't napping :-) And yes, we had sun Saturday.
This guy shows up regularly in my backyard. My defense crows will harass him as soon as he shows up. Lets me get very close.
No backyard bird series of mine would be without a Pine Siskin, which is regular visitor to my yard.
An overcast sky made for soft light, and a scene whose contrast range can be handled by a digital camera.
The background are spruce trees two lots away. I like the dark green, that along with the light almost making it appear as if it was captured deep in the woods.
This is a rare, rainy day photo from the Las Vegas, NV Desert. As the storm passed through, a rainbow emerged in the distance! Jackpot!
