It's Been A While! & BPH #73

Wow, I haven't posted in a long time! Sorry! Lots has gone on and I really haven't had any interesting birds to take photos of, at least I haven't been able to get close enough to the few to get a good shot. I took a walk around our property last week when we got a beautiful heavy frost and I made my way down to the creek where there are a few trees. I saw a male and female Cardinal and was able to get an alright pic of the female even though I didn't have my zoom with me.

I am making it my goal to get the Cardinals to come to my backyard this year and I would just LOVE to get some Chickadees too, but that is a long shot as there aren't any wooded areas too close, unless they come to the area by the creek...I can hope! I am planting as many trees as our budget can allow, but it will take a while for them to grow and create any sort of cover. Ah...someday!

Oh, and I saw our resident Kingfisher the other day too, so I have another goal of getting a good pic of him or her sometime within the next couple months. I just LOVE them, they are so gorgeous! So keep an eye out for that photo and pray I get a good one!

Go here for more great bird pics-
