Girls U8 Soccer 2010

Another season of soccer has officially started. My Daughter is playing this year and I of course have to bring my camera and capture every moment. And now for your viewing pleasure I give you U8 girls soccer 2010.

Guests Galore

I was able to spend a little more time in my blind and photograph some more in my backyard bird habitat with a few new visitors as well as a surprise guest. In the first photo I took a photo of the full view of my setup.



Here is our state bird none other than the robin

These next two birds I do not know looks like I have some research to do.

Here is the surprise guest he decided to get a drink from the pond unfortunately the stick I place in the pond for the birds to perch on got in the way.

And here he/she is again and was a great joy to work with so willing to pose and work it for the camera LOL.

And here is a gold finch enjoying the pond I am really having luck with the pond it is proving to be a great addition to the bird habitat.

First try with the backyard habitat

Well I was able to get out today and sit in the blind. I may move it a bit closer as I don't have a lens with substantial reach nor do I have an extender so moving closer is my only option for now. I was hoping to get a shot of the cardinal that was around yesterday but he was a no show oh well perhaps next time. Here are a few photos of what did pay a visit. Now I tried finding the bird species for each photo to the best of my ability so if you see any that I have wrong please do not hesitate to correct me.


1. Sparrow

2. House Finch or Pine Grosbeak (not quite sure)

3. Thinking this may be the female

4. Unknown

5. Mourning Dove
