Hooded Merganser Couple

No road is long with good company.

~Turkish Proverb

Another walk down memory lane. I had to crop these really closely so they aren't the greatest of shots - and I guess that's why I didn't post them back in March of 2010 when I took them. My first and only sighting of Hooded Mergansers.

Friday Feathers - Wings in Flight

Be like the bird in flight . . . pausing a while on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, yet sings knowing yet, that she has wings. ~Victor Hugo

A Blue-headed Vireo from last September. It was my first sighting of this pretty little bird.
