10 inches and counting and winter has begun ... this is the beautiful side of winter. If only snow could come without the cold :)

Good Fences

This is a materials quarry very close to where I live. I pass it many many times a week and have never thought to use it as my "Good Fence" ... Hmmm. But, It is indeed a good fence, don't you agree?

Wild Bird Wednesday

Lady (Coppers)Hawk

My wonderful female Coopers Hawk has returned to her favorite place for spawning an attack 0n my feeder birds.

I don't see her much in the summer months. I assume she is busy raising a family. But, she will come to this spot all winter, sit for a long period of time until she becomes unnoticed by the other birds, then .... well, you know the rest of the story. I do feel ambivalent about this routine. She is, after all, after my birds, but, she has to eat to survive and she is a magnificent hunter ...

I love this bird ... :)
