Junco and a Squirrel
I got into the my backyard photoblind a little late this morning. I didn't make it in there until seven forty five. At this time of the year between six and six thirty would be ideal.It was really peaceful this morning. Not much to do but think and reflect. There were very few birds and one tough mama squirrel that kept everyone away from the platform feeder. Luckily I was able to photograph one Dark Eyed Junco before she arrived and took over the place. One raven showed up later but it didn't come down to the feeder. A nice quiet way to start my day.
Blessings,
chris
