Sleepingdragon, can I make a request? Can you make me more pics of those blue tree swallows? How beautiful they are!

blue tree swallows 

 All from my NE Ohio USA home

first  baby eagle of the year  - a pair  flew over house

Happy ending too!  Cody looks like a true african cat in that pic, a hunting machine. 

Great story 

 macgillivray,s warbler   and   cody (cat)

 every picture has a story -    i was sitting on the deck just an hour ago  -with camera( as usual ) i saw  cody come out of the  bush

with a bird in its mouth -   he crossed the yard   into the garage  then walked  up the ramp  past me and into the house where he

put the bird( still very much alive ) in his food  dish

the ( GRIZZ )   followed him and took the bird out of dish

i took the  warbler and placed it on a giant  ganero plant

and waited several moments - the bird revived and  flew  off

When I watch swifts I'm surprised to see how many raptors there are.
