this fairly typical pic is morning, from my bedroom window.

Note time stamp (which I keep deliberately, even tho some would rather not have pics cluttered with such.)

Here's an EARLIER morning pic, just about sunrise time, but raining so sun not visible:

I don't shoot video; tho camera is able, I haven't worked on the skill (and I rarely catch birds in motion; wildlife does what IT wants, of course!)

'Big' pic I caught (and posted) yesterday was at about 7 p.m, as I returned from grocery store, and was taken from a clear place to park, some yards from my house. (Have to 'negotiate' with the foliage, and hope neighbor/landlord prunes.) I do try to go out to catch them around 'dinner' and sunset time, but no guarantees.

I surely will inform when 'season is over,' but they do what THEY want; they may be around for another month or so. (Adults arrive around St. Pat's Day every spring, thank goodness!)

Heheh. Loverly! sprinkleeninow Aug 2021 #1
