An American Robin at Mt. Pisgah surveys his world.

A Ruby-crowned Kinglet perched on a tomato cage. You can just make out the place on his head that hides the red feathers that gives him his name.

Two Yellow-rumped Warblers at the suet feeder. They are coming out of their washed out winter look.

This Rufous Hummingbird really does have two wings. The other one is just moving too fast to see. (kidding)

A male Rufous Hummingbird at the feeder. Well, almost at the feeder.

A Northern Flicker drumming on more appropriate material than an electrical transmission tower.

A male Northern Flicker was on the strut of the tower holding up the power lines. A female Flicker sat nearby and he would drum on the metal strut to make an incredible sound. Everyone loves a drummer!

A Yellow-rumped Warbler about to land on a branch on a cold morning at Mt. Pisgah Arboretum. My first photo of this bird not taken in my own yard.

This was the first time I'd ever seen a Red-breasted Sapsucker and he did not disappoint.

A Red-tailed Hawk carrying a branch to her nest that was as long as her own body. Spring is here!

This Song Sparrow spent the winter in our brush pile.

Another American Robin at Mt. Pisgah. It was perched amid lovely foliage

Partially hidden behind the smashed tomato cages (thanks ice storm) a squirrel sat and ate.

A Downy Woodpecker on the trellis and eyeing the suet feeder.

Looking lovely as usual, a Yellow-rumped Warbler posed in the garden.

A Scrub Jay in the garden.

An American Robin near the White Oak Pavillion at Mt. Pisgah Arboretum kept his eye on the visitors.
