We are home for a while so there won't be a lot of photos from exotic locales. One of our favorite occupations is to watch the birds out at the bird feeder while having a meal. Sometimes we have quite a selection but other times it's mostly pigeons like this.
Then when this guy comes most every other bird takes off.
We think it's a sharp shinned hawk though it wasn't willing to turn around for a better photo. Oddly one of the finches was unwilling to leave the feeder. Maybe it figured it was safer hiding behind the feeder than taking off.
We aren't as bird crazy as some people though. My wife and I like to walk in the mornings. During the warm months that means before sunup. There is a house down the road where the real bird people live.
Yes, those are pigeons covering the roof of their house! There were more on the electric line behind the house but that wouldn't fit into the photo. Sorry about the quality of the photo; I took it using my phone. They must have quite the bird feeder!
That's all for today. Happy Labor Day to those in the U.S. and thanks for stopping by.
