Day 163

More baby birds, I can't resist them, these are tree swallows, not living in trees but in nest boxes. The little ones are so cute, they sit in the opening watching their parents fly around getting bugs for them to eat, when they get close they open their mouths. I watched them for a while tonight, I think I saw 3 little birds in this house, and as far as I could see each got something to eat, both the mother and father birds were out zipping around catching what ever bugs they could get, they brought them back every few minutes and shoved them in the little birds waiting mouths. It was easy to tell when they were coming back, the little birds would all start chirping, you could tell they were watching them knowing they would be back soon without fail.

Day 161

I think this deer wanted to get his picture taken, when me and my dad saw him this morning he said that should be my picture of the day. But I thought there was no way I would get it, my camera was in the back of the car, that meant I had to get out, open the hatch and get the camera, all while trying to be super quiet. So I gave it a try, and go figure, he waited right where he was till I got the camera and took a few photos, I was even able to walk up a little closer, then he ran a few steps and turned and looked at me. A perfect pose, don't you think?
