Birds! I am so proud of these new photos!

I was just outside in my backyard, cleaning and refilling our birdbath and watering the plants. When I was done, I got out my phone, so I could watch the birds and maybe get some photos. I was amply rewarded! The yard was full of Nuthatches, Juncos and some Chickadees, and these photos are taken …
