Nearby our hotel in Portal, Arizona, we visited a backyard that’s dedicated to feeding wildlife. Sitting there is relaxing in a most amazing way. Below are photos of the birds and squirrels we saw. |
Our birding trip is going fast, and we’ve seen many more birds now, including more owls (by day and by night). The mountain scenery is amazing as well. Here are a couple of mountain scenes:

That yellow bird is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have two bird feeders, and both are completely dominated by mockingbirds now. They chase away everyone else.
I hope you are enjoying every moment!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing trip this must have been for you. That home is definitely well set up for wildlife and birds in particular.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and birds/animals too.
ReplyDeleteInteresting photos of these lovely birds.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! I'd like to hang out there with the critters. :-) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis looks fabulous. I'm sure those days are just flying by!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful views you have. I surely love looking at birds. Here in southern Georgia I have seen jays, red winged blackbirds, red headed woodpeckers, sappsuckers, bluebirds and some black crested bird I don't know. I never tire of seeing them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteit's so soothing to be amongst wildlife isn't it? that gorgeous chipmunk ...
ReplyDeleteYour Squirrels sure look different to "my Peanut". But also so cute. As the birds!
ReplyDeleteAmerican goldfinch, I think, possibly one of the ones who wintered here with me, now in his stunning yellow breeding plumage.
