My biggest surprise was when we passed these flowering bushes and I happened to notice some fuzzy creatures sitting atop of them... we believe them to be baby Red Wing Blackbirds. The two of them sat very quietly, looking up to the sky, and probably waiting for the parents to return with lunch. We had a slight encounter with a very angry male RWBB in the same area; just happy he didn't get physical with us.
Once again it pays to be a little more attentive in our journeys as you never know what you just might see...
Check it out!
Here is baby number one...

Rob ... great find/sighting! Super cute photos of the baby RWBB's. :)
I love it when the babies are out.
Speaking of babies ... yesterday, I saw a mom Raccoon feeding 2 babies and this morning, saw a baby Cottontail Rabbit. So cute!
Oh wow! How great is that?! Great pictures Rob!
Oh, and I am so jealous of Jo-Anne too for getting to see a Mom Raccoon with her babies!
More excitement ... yesterday, saw baby squirrels! This month has been spectacular for adult and baby wildlife sightings. :D
T. ... unfortunately, I don't have a camera. Would have made for a great photo. Haven't seen them since.
