    Some from the weekend

    I hurt my hand in a biking mishap so its been pretty painful hitting that shutter button, so I havent been able to shoot as much as I'd like.

    I have been looking for the ID of this bird all morning and all I keep getting is warblers. There are 3 of them that showed up in my yard yesterday. Anyone know the ID.
    Sorry its a bit blurred.


    Asian lily? Growing wild also in my yard.



    I swear every week there is something new in my yard. I hardly need to find places to shoot. lol.

    Thanks for looking

    The little birdy, my friend, is a white breasted nuthatch. A good source for identifying birds is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

    I see those nuthatches at my feeders often, cute little birds aren't they, and I was wondering what kind of lily that is as well - I've seen some at a park recently, very pretty.

    That was the first time I ever seen those birds. They were here yesterday late afternoon and they are now gone,...weird.

    Those lilies I have tattooed on my leg, so its very strange they are growng in my yard, but driving through town today I saw them everywhere so they must be a wild flower here

    Thank you Knight..


    As for my Tattoo.. this is the best I can go with my itty bitty hand held Olympus. Theres no way I could use my SLR for this one LOL

    The colors maybe slightly different but not by to much.

    Yarrow, the lily on your leg looks more like the lilies we have growing around here. Thanks for sharing. It's a pretty tattoo. BTW, you could have used your big camera on a tripod with the self timer.
