Poor lighting and an unsuccessful attempt at an outing earlier in the morning kept me close to home today. Sometimes I forget the fun I can have with my camera in my own back yard!
It was pretty active - at one time there were 41 birds around me, gathering at the fountain to drink or to indulge in a few peanuts. A Coopers zoomed past my head but fortunately for my feathered friends he didn't stick around.

In addition to the usual suspects - sparrows, cardinals, doves and black birds - Blue Jays rang in the fall season with LOUD voices and lots to say. |

Most are sporting back-to-school haircuts!

Hanging out at the local watering hole. |

Where's my nemesis? |
|
Here I am...get away from MY peanuts! |
|
This odd bird joined in the festivities...I wasn't able to locate him in my birding book! |
|
Can't think of a better way to spend a holiday Monday! |
You could charge admission to your personal birding paradise. ;-)
