This little dragonfly was flitting around in the backyard. Looks like he was doing a balancing act.
Then I was out one morning and spied this guy. I like how transparent his wings are.
Hubbie caught this baby mockingbird in a neighbors tree. It had been in our garage and couldn't find it's way out. Notice his little tailfeathers are not yet formed.I love finding little winged babies in our yard. I hope you find some in yours.
Happy weekend everyone!
Gorgeous pictures! Well done. I have never been able to capture a picture of a dragonfly. The little mockingbird is so sweet. There are babies everywhere right now.
ReplyDeleteHi Susie! you made me laugh with the dragonfly photos: looks like acrobatics. And the baby mockingbird... so sweet.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful weekend. This evening we are finally seeing blue sky with a promise of sunshine tomorrow... that will make our vegetable garden happy.
Great pictures you two. Hope you have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteThose are great photos! I NEVER see much bird life in my yard...I'm amazed how often you do.
ReplyDeleteHave a fun weekend, Susie.
These pictures are fantastic, I hope to catch a few dragon flies with my camera one day soon. The baby is so cute.

Susie, these are great pictures! We are seeing lots of birds! Even had a baby hawk sitting on the fence one day. And we have lots and lots of dragonflies. I love them!
ReplyDeleteThat first dragonfly picture looks like he his trying to do a headstand! Great shots, Susie! Wishing you a happy weekend.! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Susie! I love seeing dragonflies around here. They look like little be-jeweled helicopters and I will stop what I am doing to watch them.
ReplyDeleteBaby birds are interesting to watch and whenever I find a little fledgling I watch to make sure it is O.K. How did the little mockingbird find it's way out?
Great photos of the dragonfly, Susie! I have been known to chase them around the garden trying to get one good picture:) I haven't seen a dragonfly here this year yet, but we have had a lot of butterflies, which I'm happy about because we had so few last year. I love this time of year--so much happening in the garden and outdoors.
ReplyDeleteHubby did a good job capturing the dragonfly. They crack me up zooming around the garden. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pics you two!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd say you both are talented photographers-what wonderful pictures!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Hope the little fellow is okay!
ReplyDeleteHi Susie, mockingbirds are not native to my region but I swear I saw one Saturday afternoon. Maybe they are moving farther north.

It looks as if you have all kinds of activity in your yard. These are great pictures -- especially of the dragonflies.
ReplyDeleteWhat great Dragonfly pictures. I've only seen one here so far. The baby bird is so cute. We had a family of Nuthatches visiting our yard yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHi Susie, I'm trying to catch up... It's been a long month for me!!!!! Love the picture of that baby Mocker... Your hubby got a great picture...
ReplyDeleteLove your header.
Hope you are doing well.
Hugs,
Betsy
I've never seen a baby mockingbird - how cute!!
ReplyDeleteHi Susie, the dragonfly pictures are amazing! I love the way you get those bird photos. That's something I can't seem to manage:( Your dh did a great job!!
ReplyDeleteI love dragonflies! I like their big eyes. Always remind me of Odie, the dog on Garfield.
