Feeder activity today

I'm excited it's warmed up enough to get outside.  I saw a Cooper's Hawk flying in the woods this morning so I'm sure it likes another feeder to attract activity as well.

Here is what I saw this afternoon...

A male and female Purple Finch

 
Black-capped Chickadee

 
White-breasted Nuthatch taking off

 
Nuthatch again 


 
And finishing with a Nuthatch and male Purple Finch

Sun sight

Captured this last evening.  I was interested in the sunset but the sun was pretty bright.  I happened to see this branch in front of me kind of "sighting" the sun.

Catching up from last week

Here is a Dark-Eyed Junco on January 2...



And here are White-tailed does against a pretty morning backdrop a few days later...

Which one of these is not like the other?

These are from the last two nights.  Cold for sure.  You can see the minus 8 on the pictures last night.  Good activity with bucks a few nights ago and overnight captured a blurry Red Fox but good to see one again.

First feeder shot of the season and the new year

Hey, it was below zero actual temp outside so I didn't wait long but here is a House Finch on my feeder.  I'm excited for the next four or five months of my "feeder season".  I'll try to have it out until leaves start blocking my view.
