Birders checking the Sage Thrasher which arrived in Ohio. A rare bird for here since it is commonly seen in Western U.S.
This is the 360th bird I have recorded on my eBird list.
Another view!

This was my first carving, which I started on a beach in Florida in 1992! I finished it around 202! I was not satisfied with the beak, so I cut it off at least two times and redid it, though not satisfied, I set it on a ledge on our enclosed porch for 4 years. In December I decided to “remodel” it. I cut the head and started carving a new head!
This is that carving with a new head, and a new paint job! I think it is an improvement but not perfect, but much better. I thought it was interesting that I started this carving on a warm beach in Florida, and finished the remodel in Ohio during a snowstorm!
During snow storm, I decided to finish painting this common loon.

Female Rufous Hummingbird- I think they are loading themselves up for the long journey southward!
I this guy didn’t want to share the limelight! I just realized I had posted this photo on the 27th of July with some others! So it goes! Have a super day, and keep on singing! If things are tough, stand strong!

This was a new bird for me. It was far far away. in the camera it looked like it would not be too bad a photo, but it wasn’t to be.
