Birds and Such

First a bit of news. Nuncketest was recently accepted into the Nature Blog Network. I think this will be a good conduit for exposing the blog to more folks as well as creating awareness of other similar blogs for my way cool readers.

This Red-tailed Hawk was riding the air currents way, way above.























The bird, species unknown, who built this nest was certainly into recycling.























Here's a top down shot. Nope, no eggs.


















And what is Spring with a Robin? Well, I'm really not sure, as I've seen a few robins around all winter long and I did spot a field full of them on a recent lake shoot. Some sources say the American Robin, Turdus migratorius, tends to hang in large groups during the winter months while others describe migratory behavior. As always here, more questions than answers, but the simple observations and what they lead to are always so much fun!
