Only one report today! Let's all get out today and get some photos of what's happening in Mother Nature's world. Out-of-the-window photos can be great to share as well.
**Brian
Stone sends some photos taken over the last few days. Back on Sunday, Brian took
some photos of Dan and Nicole Sullivan's bright red male Northern Cardinal as
it fed on seeds on their back deck. It has been a regular visitor to their yard
recently. On Thursday Brian's wife Annette alerted him to the presence of some
Black-capped Chickadees flitting about in their old backyard maple tree, but
Brian soon became a little more interested in the tiny brown shape climbing
vigorously up the trunk which turned out to be a Brown Creeper that
managed to mostly evade the camera, only allowing a partial photo to be
recorded. On Friday in Memramcook Brian imaged a White-breasted Nuthatch,
an American Tree Sparrow, and a male Downy Woodpecker.
