Chris, another great outing..The Olive Warbler is pretty and I like the yellow eyed Junco. Cool capture of the Osprey! Great post and images, happy birding!
ReplyDeleteCertainly, tours and trips to the beautiful bird watching is a great rest of everyday life. Regards.
ReplyDeleteChris, I am glad to see that you are still getting around to see all the birds! I would love to see that Olive Warbler! Nice photos as always.
ReplyDeleteЧудова публікація! Перше фото моє улюблене! Дуже гарні кольори!

Beautiful birds, each and everyone, cheers Chris.
ReplyDeleteLots of nice sightings (several I do not know) on your outing. Love that last shot!
ReplyDeleteAZ's diversity is amazing, from snowy mts to dry desert and water filled lakes/reservoirs. Of course all offering different birds. I sense you've slowed down a little in your searching. Not slowed the searching, just slowed while searching.
ReplyDeleteI do like the pine cone shot, and hearing about other peoples walks!
ReplyDeleteA superb walk and a grand selection of birds.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely staying tuned Chris :) j'adore seeing your bird images, especially the smaller honey eaters, I find it almost impossible to catch a shot of them, which makes me enjoy yours all the more :)
ReplyDeleteHello Chris!:) Unlike you I don't go in search of birds, but wait for them to come to me, so don't see many different species. This is why I like to visit, to see what you have found. The Olive Warbler was a good find,..such a pretty bird.Great shots of the Osprey and Bald Eagle, birds I would love to see and photograph in real time. Good luck with more sightings.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Gorgeous photos Chris and a great outing. Looks like you've got your year list off to a great start. Look forward to the next adventure :)
ReplyDeleteyes, nature IS very healing.
ReplyDeletei always love your pictures...whether birds or landscape. so much beauty! i love the eagle, osprey, flying merganser & goldeneye!
I stay tuned for sure. It is always so interesting to discover what you were expecting or not expecting.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the Flycatcher ...not a branch in the way at all this time!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun trip - and not just for all the FOY sightings! Love the merganser pic, also the first and last photos!
ReplyDeleteHi there Kreesh, still remember me? I have not been posting here for a while, and also been out for more than 2 months. I am reviving my posts here especially from my travels recently.
ReplyDeleteIf you have time, i suggest you do some birding also in Australia and New Zealand. I stayedl longer in NZ and saw lots of birds, and lots of amazing landscapes! Best regards.
Of course I remember you Andrea! Glad you're back and had a great time over there. Thanks for the suggestions!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful trip with such great scenery and so many birds!
ReplyDeleteLots of great birds here. The Eagle is my favorite, I would love to photograph one someday. Also loved that first shot and the last one. Beautiful countryside.
ReplyDeleteThe weather does look perfect for birding, Chris! I didn't know there were Yellow-eyed Juncos! Cool!
ReplyDeletelove the sweet flycatchers. LOVE the eagle shot!
ReplyDeleteWonderful series of bird shots. I especially lovee the Goldeneye and Eagle.
ReplyDeleteSuper post Chris. Always interesting to see where your footsteps have taken you and the varied wildlife seen.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and variety of birds you saw on your walk!
ReplyDeleteA great outing for you Chris, and your FOY birds sound stunning. Well yes, I do have to agree that just walking without looking seems rather pointless to me. When I see folk on a trek or walk and none of them with camera or binos I do worry about all the good things they will never see or experience.
