My first blue headed vireo. From a distance I thought it was a northern parula and wasn’t going to take the picture. I was thinking it was too far away and dark which it was but was glad I took the shot after all.
Keeper of the sign.
Common yellowthroat hiding in the reeds along the lake.
“Sing, sing a song. “
I thought this was an immature yellow rumped warbler but now I’m not sure.
White eyed vireo.
The usual titmouse looking cute.
This red shoulder hawk was on the wooded trail and watching the blue headed vireo. I think he is still a young one since he didn’t have a lot of color in his head.
This one was sitting out over the lake watching all of the little birds flying around. He may have just been soaking up the sun since it was fairly cool that morning.
A few birds on my walk around Chesnut Park in early January. It was a cool morning (45 degrees when I started) but warmed up fast. I didn’t think I was going to see much but the little birds came out as the sun started peeking out of the clouds.

Both big and small bird shots are great.
Wonderful pictures and I am So envious — that’s a wonderful bird park — your whole area is a birder’s Paradise!
I don’t know the names of any of them but I still love looking at them.
Wonderful array of bird photos! Beautifully done!
Happy Week to you,

I’ll be going to Chestnut again soon. (but I need a better lens if I’m ever going to get shots like those (he whines). My 300 will never get me close enough before they fly off)
Loved your shots.
I love all the cute warblers and the Vireo’s. Wonderful collection of birds, Dina!
Great photos!
