I thought it was NOT a good idea to go out in -13° F weather, so I went through some recent "reject" files and found this fellow.

I was fortunate to have my camera in the car with me when I spotted this guy hunting in a roadside field.

He also can't believe it's 3°F outside right now !!

I am always amazed at the stunning color of these birds. Also, don't talk with your mouth full 🤣

I thought these guys headed south in the winter, but it is good to see this chubby little chap to remind me of warmer times.

Saw this lovely lady at the frozen water hole.

This kinda looks like a cute little land jellyfish.

I guess we can end the year with this little raptor !

You are cleared for take-off. I found this interesting little pattern after the latest snow storm. I wonder what kind of bird made it ?

#birds #wildlifephotography #wisconsin

That would be nice. Thanks !

I love that these little guys hang out in my backyard.

Saw this fellow early one morning. He had 3 or 4 does following him around.

Getting ready for winter. Handsome little chap, don't you think ?

You gotta be careful around this gang of ruffians ! Jersey Pete and Sawblade Linda are the worst of the lot ! Inevitably ends up in a food fight !

This little chap was braving the -5°F weather for a few seeds. Hardy little birds.

Too slow on the shutter finger !!

I was walking one morning at the local wetlands preserve and heard a strange sound, kinda like R2D2...was I on Dagobah? Nope, just this little chap singing away.

Early one morning down by the river.

The fall colors are fading and the temperatures are dropping. Our first little snowfall here in Wisconsin was nice, but short lived. As this season changes I will be looking to add a winter gallery, focusing on texture, contrast, and maybe a few little friends as well.
