I guess this time of year is for the birds! The eagles are out every day choosing sticks for their nest, but they don't choose the sticks that are on the ground - they choose tree branches, then land on them, and fly away ripping the branch from the tree and carrying it back to the nest. They should be laying eggs any day now. The next two birds seem to show up together each evening to feed, even though they are unrelated. The second and third pictures above are of one of the Chuckers (a type of Partridge) that visit our bird feeder each day. The last two pics are of our resident male pheasant who has made our house his home. We think they both came off a game farm ~10 miles away down near Pt Mackenzie. They pose well for pictures in return for the sunflower seeds that they seem to enjoy.
