Northern Flicker
While doing some gardening this past weekend, these flickers were making a racket! There were actually three at one time but I was only able to capture these two. They were a fair distance away but I was able to keep track of them because of that vibrant red spot!

I like how "fluffed up" the breast feathers were ! |

Great Blue Herons....the making of a nest
I also have to say that it was really difficult to narrow it down to just these few photos. Sometimes I am lucky when everything is working correctly and the lighting is perfect and of course the subjects are preforming perfectly!

Mergansers everywhere!
There is a short period of time when you can find the mergansers once the waters opens up. I think the most difficult is to find a safe place to park the car to photograph them or seeing them from a distance and not being able to get there (lucky them)! You can be so focused on getting the shots before they move away, you forgot how dangerous it can be with vehicles zooming by you. I must admit I do get mad at people not slowing down but it is what it is. Here are some Common and Hooded Mergansers found in some of the local ponds and lakes nearby.
