Last week I had knee replacement surgery, and it will be a few if not several weeks before I can get back out into the fields. Even though I’m largely homebound, I can still partake of the pleasure of watching the birds through the windows that frame our backyard and the golf course beyond it.
Yesterday was sunny, and a Carolina wren that was snacking at our suet feeder was my cue to pick up my camera and stake out a spot on a chair near the back door.
I blasted off several shots of the wren and also aimed at a few dark-eyed juncos, mourning doves, house sparrows, a downy woodpecker and a squirrel. Some were photogenic than others, and I have chosen accordingly for this post. 🦅

Wishing you a speedy recovery. 😊
Thanks (and good to hear from you). I’m well on my way.
Thanks. It’s going well.
Dan, I’m sorry to hear about your knee replacement, but it’s great to see that you’re still finding ways to enjoy birding from home. Wishing you a smooth recovery and hoping you’ll be back out in the field soon!
Thanks! It’s a short-term solution for long-term benefit. 🙂
