Nice set! I don’t know that I have ever seen a Baltimore oriole outside of a photo. Wish we could attract them but somebody else eats the oranges and grape jelly!
Thanks, Marg! Appreciated!

We've seen a lot of fledglings in the past couple weeks.

Just a reminder - this challenge will be mostly "Post, no host, no obligation to comment" Comment if you'd like, but it's vacation this week and next for Sunny. Lesley (Photogirl17) is enjoying (I hope) her few days at beach and we leave the end of the week. Sooo, please don't take it personally if your post doesn't get a comment. Just enjoy the posts and "fly away" (birds fly but I'm not sure I would) to a summer spot as you look at all the many different birds.

With the Pandemic and stay at home orders, I've found that watching the birds visit my yard has been somewhat of a relief. If you like to photograph birds in your yard, then this challenge is for you! Can you identify your visitors?
I like your series Johnna.

I was just getting ready to shoot a photo of a pretty little yellow wren. I was startled by a noise and shadow and this guy swooped down and ate the wren before I could snap a picture. You can see the feather scattered on the grass. Sorry for some reason the picture would not up load!
