Robin eating Sumac Seeds

The weather has been brutal on these guys recently.  Wind chills in the high teens this morning did not bring any relief. There was a brief respite on Friday when this image was captured.  Technical: Should the beak be touching the sumac?

Hungry Flicker

After several days indoors I was out looking for images in the fresh snow this morning.  The early migrants were busy eating sumac seeds all morning giving lots of opportunities for both video and still images.  Technical: cropped vertical from C100 frame.

Sumac Leaves

One of the earliest leaves to change color and one of the most intense colors of fall.

Changing Color

This sumac leaf starts the fall color season, the intense reds will soon follow.
