Roberta and I went out and braved the intermittent rain last night to try to get some shots. In between showers we managed to get some good stuff. I'm really going to miss doing this with Roberta when we move out to Nanaimo. But we'll have new stuff to shoot when she comes out to visit.... right Roberta??
Update on the nest and eggs. It's a Dark-Eyed Junco. I've looked up the incubation period for the eggs and it'll be about 12-13 days for the eggs to hatch. Sorry Anne. I had a brain fart .... got the number of eggs mixed up with the number of days for incubation (she admits as heal of hand meets with forehead... LOL!!)
You can view my gallery of images and calendar for sale at: cute but stupid . I'm slowly adding more to the site and if there is something in my portfolio you would like to purchase but is not available on my site just contact me and I'll make it available.
I appreciate all visits and comments and thank you always... ;-)
