I took a little walk this morning and captured a few photos around a pond not far from home. I was a little disappointed that were not more variety of ducks and birds but I did enjoy what I did see and hear. I especially love listening to the song of red-winged black birds, although I love them all. Thought I’d share these for your pleasure (at least I hope it is a pleasure for you all).








Your pictures are amazing. It takes a lot of patience to photograph birds.

It really can take patience. I tend to take a lot of photos and weed out the ones that are not so great. 🙂 Thanks, Sadje.

I have tried to take Cc pictures of the birds I see here but they fly away before my phone is out of my pocket.

I think they are a great variety. We have mostly sparrows, geese, and ducks but we go get a few robins, finches and hawks.

Yes, there are a wide variety here as well, but not so much around the ponds within the city. However, in the woods there are lots. I hear them but cannot see them in the canopy as they are hidden by the leaves.

You have trees with leaves up there? I would have thought it was mostly evergreens. We lived in Sprucrie Lake, SK for years. It is between Loon Lake and North Battleford. All I can remember is evergreens from Spruce Lake to Loon Lake and north. We lived in LaRonge too and I remember it as evergreens. It was a long time ago when my kids were little that we lived up north.
