LOOKING for feedback... which crop appeals to you more?
This is the same sandhill crane ruffled feathers as last post.
Really lucky this morning.. just noticed we've got a gorgeous Robin building it's nest in the garden..
I have been watching this Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) nest ever since I found the scrape on June 18. There are now four eggs in the nest. This means they will hatch on or about July 10 plus minus 1 or so. I will monitor the nest as nothing is cuter that Killdeer chicks huddled under mother. The nest is in a dirt road in Jackson County, Colorado.
Sunday I went to Kohler-Andrae State Park and came across a number of nesting Canada geese couples settling in.
Palmyra Cove Nature Park - www.palmyracove.org/ is 250 acres of green in a highly developed area on the Delaware River just south of the Tacony Palmyra Bridge. With its woodlands, wetlands, tidal cove and wild river shore line, PCNP serves as an important feeding site for migratory birds.

Two spoonbills defending their nesting ground from the egret showing full breeding plumage.
The Roseate Spoonbill is 80 cm (31 in) tall, with a 120–130 cm (47–51 in) wingspan. It has long legs, a long neck, and a long, spatulate bill. Adults have a bare greenish head ("golden buff" when breeding[3]) and a white neck, back, and breast (with a tuft of pink feathers in the center when breeding), and are otherwise a deep pink. The bill is grey
Further along the coast this morning I spotted these Linnets gathering feathers presumably for nesting material. Weather change making them do an early start
These Cape Cormorants were also in breeding mode at Stony Point (Betty's Bay), with lots of nest material offerings happening. They are such stunning birds, it is a pity about the harsh light which doesn't do them justice. It was also extremely windy the day we were there - knowing the Western Cape it probably often is like that - making it a struggle to keep the big lens pointing in the right direction. The good thing about the wind was it kept the smell down to bearable proportions.

I took this 2 weeks ago on a kayaking trip in the mountains. They were beautiful guarding their nest together. :-)
Blue Tit taking nesting material in and out of my garden nest box. I only put this box up a few weeks ago so I'm delighted that a pair have moved in.
