The Darling Black Phoebe! (+1 inset!)


+1 inset!
Hello everyone! :) My cage continues to be rattled for new pictures so I found this pair of images to share today! :)
First--thank you so much for all of the wonderful comments and care. You guys are just wonderful and I am very touched by your attention. I am trying to stop being affected so much by my constant flurry of worried thoughts…slowly but surely I'm adjusting. It's tough, even after months of this. However, as time is going on and folks here aren't all dropping like flies, I'm feeling more and more encouraged and hopeful about things. I really appreciate the support. You have no idea how much its meant to me. I feel so broken about all of this and it's very nice to feel like I'm not as hopeless as I thought I was…
Today's Pictures
Last October when I was on my morning walk, I noticed some birds I hadn't seen before--cute little guys who were sitting on our power lines and twittering away on that lovely new day. I crossed my fingers that they'd still be there when I came back with my Sony camera and I was so happy when I returned and the birds were still there! I didn't want to get too close and scare them away so I got pictures from a distance--lucky me, they turned out really well! A bit small but still, look at the detail!! Such a cutie pie!
This camera I have is the Sony DSCRXx10IV. I was pushed over the edge to add it to our pair of beloved Canon 5D Mk II and III's because of one of my ipernity friends, Roland (ROL/PHOTO). The constant stream of incredible bird and wildlife pictures blew me out of the water and when I learned they came from a new style of hybrid, high-end point-and-shoot camera, I just had to get it. My first favorite camera was the Canon SX30 IS super-zoom and I used it like a fiend until I simply HAD to move up to a DSLR. However, I had always hoped that a camera would be developed that combined the high quality of a DSLR with a point and shoot. The Sony is a HUGE step up from my previous P&S and has allowed me to get fabulous bird pictures that make me so happy!
Doing a search on the internet, I found out I'd captured a Black Phoebe, a kind of flycatcher that makes its home in the western US down though Central America. Of the six subspecies, this is the Northern Black Phoebe which lives in Oregon and California. Wiki: Black Phoebe
Hello Pam!
I hope things are going ok for you these days! The weather's heating up…it's going to be nearly 90 degrees today, yoiks! Our rainfall has been so dismal this year, we fear the fire season will be horrendous. What about you? Sending many hugs your way!! :)

You may not beieve it but you do get used to it! There will be upsetting bits of info and perhaps bad news closer to home but most will get through this. Support will then need to be very carefully targeted at the most needy as we crawl out of this. But I believe we can do it!
I HAVE AN EASTERN PHEBE HERE WHO NESTS EACH YEAR.
LOVE QN HUGSS.. WE HAVE CLASSIC STORM WEATHER,, HEAT AND HUMIDITY,
I TOOLD YOU.. HOLD ON TIGHT.. THIS TOO SHALL PASS
HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Stay save.
It's lovely to see you back so soon...................and I'm really glad that you're learning to cope better with the situation we all find ourselves in.
I've been coping by finding lots of things to photograph that would I wouldn't normally do. I'm quite enjoying it, but as our restrictions are gradually being eased I'm considering going out again. We're now allowed to drive somewhere for our exercise etc..........so we're considering a day out in the countryside, but only somewhere where it's easy to keep apart from others, NOT the touristy areas as they're far too peopley for us. We'll probably wait and see how the easing of restrictions goes first though :-)
You should be fine getting out and about on your own property I would have thought. I hope you've been keeping up your morning walks?
Anyway, I'm rambling. Take care and stay safe..........and don't leave it too long for your next visit. *Hugs*
