I haven't identified this little bird yet (Black Chinned Hummingbird??) -- I can't see a whole lot of it.
Crazy birds all over the place. lol If I had a decent lens I could have shown you the chicks in the nests.
It wasn't my intention when I started making this, but I think it looks like a Russian Nesting doll.
My first thought when I began it was, "Can you see me?" But as she began to take shape, I kept hearing, "I am a part of something bigger than myself."

The osprey pair Dos and Tres Rayas are nesting at the Mexican restaurant again! Hello my friend! I think this is mama. I did my best osprey impression and she responded in kind. It was cool because we were on the way to breakfast with my parents and I got to show them one of "my" bird families. =o)
I named them for their stripes on their wings. On one of them "two stripes" show, and on the other "three stripes" show. I don't speak spanish, but since they are nesting and raising their young in the parking lot of a Mexican restaurant, I thought the names were fun. They successfully raised two chicks last year. I got to watch them from the nest to flight school! Hopefully I will again this year.
Hugs and thanks for viewing! =o)

Perched precariously on a security light, this Dove had made its nest. Up a ladder I went to take this picture, and very quickly the Dove, obviously, didn't like presence. I didn't hang around for long....
A nesting house wren, living on my parents' front porch. It was a little skeptical of me and my camera for a while, but got back to the business of feeding its little ones.
Cliff swallows nesting in Imperial Beach. Several of the apartment buildings in the area were covered in nests like these. I'm glad the owners and tenants don't mind them as many people seem to wage wars against swallows nowadays.
A pair of Ospreys on a nesting platform in Squantum marshes. Bit of a naff image, as even at 300mm I was really too far away.

Sorry this is a bit soft, it is difficult to focus when zoom is extended while standing on a boat that is rocking and moving. This is the first time I have seen a nest like this at Lake Powell. I was soo excited. It is about 150 feet up the canyon wall.
Take a couple of feeders and collections of nesting materials, such as moss, grass, hay, animal fur, hair from hairbrushes. Pack into the feeders and hang up for the birds in early spring.
