With good fortune, my visitors from Colorado happen to enjoy birding. Leaving the boys at home the girls went out to play. Visiting Wooton’s Landing to see what birds we could find our first discovery was this pair of Hairy Woodpeckers that were busy feeding their little family.

Plenty of warblers were singing in the trees, and this Prairie Warbler was part of the welcoming committee.

This beautiful “Myrtle” Yellow Rump Warbler was busy enjoying the evergreens.

To add to this post, I looked outside just now and saw a stunning sunset. I just had to share. Hope you had a wonderful day as well!

Great photos and an enjoyable birding experience for all of us.
I love warblers and can’t get enough of them. Only problem is – they’re in constant motion! I was reading up on birds and you have so many different birds than we do on the east coast. Perhaps a trip west is due.
Great photos! The Praire Warbler is gorgeous!
Thanks Tricia ! The Prairie is one of my favorites.
Great photos Bella. The sunset is awesome!
It’s wonderful to see you Mark. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you pop up. Hope all is well with you, and thank you so much for your compliment.
You’re welcome and thank you Bella—it’s nice to be back. I lost some interest in the photo blog but it’s been renewed with my new travel blog. I love seeing all your new photos—they are really great! I look forward to your next posting.
Magnificent images all!
We had so much fun watching the woodpeckers feed their babies. Such a rare moment.
These are the best tweets, but I had to tweet the post!! Have a wonderful weekend…
Love you – you are so awesome. Thank you Rebecca.
Thank you!!! What an adventure we are on…
If I know how to use the Tweeter account, I would have tweeted your tweets.
HAHA ! Ok..you two are really funny. Great idea. Tweeting the tweets. I still don’t get the point of twitter, but I am there. 🙂
All your photos are very good, but the sunset is beyond breathtaking!
It was one of those sunsets that those colors only last a few minutes. I was lucky that I bothered to look outside of the house and saw it. I trespass on my neighbors and hope they won’t yell at me when I go on their dock.
oh wow, the colours in the last pictures are stunning!! the whole picture is stunning 😉
Thanks Evi ! So happy you enjoyed the sunset so much.
Stunning photos! The sunset is breathtaking!
Thank you so much Travvel sized, and appreciate your visit. Hope to see you back soon.
Your little feathered friends are adorable, and the last image here is absolutely gorgeous.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
You are too kind Lisa. Thank you so much for your kind comment.
Stunning photography, love the hairy woodpeckers and the sunset is about as elegant as it gets!
So happy you loved the hairy’s. They were quite cool. Ok..so next painting idea – a sunset! Question is…where?
Absolutely gorgeous snaps – I especially love the ‘stereo woodpeckers’ they make you do a double take and then you realize that your eyes aren’t playing a trick on you!
HAHA ! Stereo woodpeckers ! I love that !! I wonder if they were having a discussion as to who was going to feed the babies first.
Love those Woodys and excellent sunset!
This last week has been rather amazing. Birds, wonderful sunset, tall ships. long birding trip to Delaware Bay, boat cruise on the Bay, Maryland crabs twice. It really should be illegal how wonderful life is.
Absolutely gorgeous… the little ones are precious and that sunset is just divine.
Really wish you were here..you so deserve to enjoy this with me.
Loving that last pic – AMAZING:)
Thanks Renee ! Have a wonderful evening.
That is an incredible sunset, why don’t I ever see them like that. I love the birds too, it must take a great deal of patience to photograph them.
ooooh! Pretty sunset! Great capture Emily. 🙂
