Birdwatching!

hummingbird at our apartment
Birdwatching at Chichaqua Bottoms!


These little goofballs walked Right up to me while I was standing still. They didn't seem to even notice I was there until I hissed at Rick. They were SO CUTE but I was also super worried about where Mama was.

Then the third raccoon baby showed up.
Still no mama.



This little guy didn't notice us standing there either, until Rick said "hey buddy" and then it climbed this tree to watch us from there while the other two hid in the weeds. We snapped a few pictures and then left before Mom showed up.

The swallows are flocking! We saw Tree Swallows, Barn Swallows and possibly Rough-Winged Swallows all perched on the wires!
