Not too much interest in the daily insect and fungi so how about a daily bird. All taken on the sun deck.

Nice photo. My local birds are so skittish they fly away when I open the door, much less get close enough for them to eat out of my hand. Kudos for your patience.
The chickadees are friendly also.

We get those around here along with the golden-crowned. I was really surprised how many varieties of birds we had.
We also get the golden crowned sparrow, neat bird. Today we have the friendly nuthatch.

They are cute little guys. I put hen scratch out for the chickens and they eat part of it, but they are pretty well-fed so they walk away from it too and the other birds move in. The juncos are here for the winter so there are lots of them.

I am so jealous John! What great subjects you have.
Thanks young Nancie! I like seeing all the Northern hemisphere birds too as they're completely different to the one we get here. This is a Sacred Kingfisher
