Another sparrow visitor this morning: A White-throated Sparrow! Its identification is unmistakeable with white stripes on the side of its head and its strong bright yellow lores and a delicate white bib on its upper breast. This is my first sighting of this species this spring. Its always exciting seeing the return of migrating species!

Great pictures of the Mallard Drake. That's what I see mallards do every time I walk down to the pond to take pictures of them.
p30 -- Thanks Mary, They are always so pretty to watch and that one was content to just stand there preening for quite a while so gave me some time to catch him!!

Good luck at the Dr. Hope you weren't having any problems with the pacemaker. Always good to have it checked though!

Hey guys, with all the excitement we had today I am off to bed. The two girls are still hanging in there and took a little water.
See you all in the morning and thanks for all your participation and beautiful pixs.
Tomorrow I have to get my pacemaker checked late morning so I will be gone for a bit then but I know we will easily carry on without me then. Will be on in the morning though.

This is my chance to share a funny story about going out with my husband to get some images of Osprey. That's him blurred because all I had time to do was capture the Osprey flying by while he was looking the other way. I thought about shouting out that there was one behind him but would have missed the shot. He never did see the bird.
