2011 Fall Migration Parade

Except for a group of White-throated Sparrows and a hummingbird feeder hanging in hopes of a rare vagrant bird, it looks like fall migration is wrapping up here in east-central New York state.  Here's a photo recap some of the migratory birds that I hosted in my yard this fall.

I love a parade (of birds). That's a beautiful Blackburnian Warbler photo!

ATTENTION

  • Our eyes and ears should be open and alert to the natural wonders that surround us every day. Take time to look out our windows to see the birds that visit us and open our windows to hear them. Walk around whatever space we have to enjoy the birds in nature. Every day, work on improving our powers of observation.

ACCEPTANCE

  • Nature happens. We cannot MAKE natural things happen (or NOT happen). We can create habitats to encourage natural things to happen around us, but there are no guarantees.

RESPONSIBILITY

  • Birdfeeding comes with responsibilities to the birds and the environment we share with them. If you are unwilling to accept these responsibilities, you shouldn’t feed the birds. We also have a responsibility to share these natural wonders with the next generation.
