Enter Autumn, Nature

It's after Labor Day, and Autumn is coming. My beloved Ruby-Throated Hummingbird, Rudy, has left for warmer climates. I hope he will return next Spring <3

This post is just to share a few photos of other nature that has been visiting over the last few days.

There was a gorgeous female Cardinal! Isn't she beautiful?
This is her full body shot on our truck
And an adorable baby Cardinal!
A wonderful baby Bluebird!
And some adults enjoyed the bird bath:
Head dunk!
Female Bluebird jumping for joy!
Male Bluebird enjoys the bird bath too!
The White-breasted Nuthatch hadn't been around for a while - good to see him!
The Chickadee climbs IN the ant moat on the hummingbird feeder, to get a drink!

It's been a lovely summer bird watching... especially the special experience of my adorable Rudy! I will imagine him in a lovely warm environment, plenty to eat, lots of friends, until he returns!
Rudy, your swing will await you, next April...

Until next post, be well!
