Spring blessings of birds

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).

This little sparrow was very active flitting among the reeds around the pond

So quick and so busy on this windy but warm spring day

I love the sheen of colors and he had lots to sing about too

Grackles were plentiful around the ponds

Red-winged black birds seemed to be in competition with the grackles

Their wings are so vibrant!

Mr. blackbird added his harmonies to the cacophony of song

While a pair of ducks took in the symphony and grabbed a bite to eat now and then
