I love, love, love white-throated sparrows. I can just sit and watch them foraging around the yard all day and I love their song. Yes, I am a nerd. Seeing their numbers increasing over the last couple of weeks makes me very happy. 🙂 Click on pictures to enlarge.

Belted kingfisher
This guy has been patrolling this pond that I visit occasionally. I’ve been out there a few days trying to get a decent picture, but I do not want to run him off, so I am keeping my distance. If you have never seen one doing his/her thing, it is pretty amazing. They talk a lot, hover over the water, then dive right in. Hopefully, he will hang around for a while and I can get better pictures. Click on picture to enlarge.
Gulls
If you live in the Lawrence area, you have probably noticed the thousands of gulls moving through. Amazing, and big fun to watch! Click on pictures to enlarge.
