This is a stew made of photographic ingredients that didn’t merit individual postings.
This disheveled-looking bird is probably a House Finch.

A male White-tailed Deer was browsing along the lakeshore.

And then there was a (garter) snake in the grass.

This was the first Mourning Dove I have seen. It flew off within a moment.

A Tree Swallow flew right towards me.

Last year, this eagle’s nest produced two chicks. I wonder what it holds this year.

This muskrat seems to be a regular visitor.

A female Osprey is still bringing twigs to its nest, while others are already sitting on eggs.

There is a rule that you cannot have too many pictures of an osprey in flight—or at least there should be.

At this time of year, one can always play the cute card: Here is mommy mallard and her seven chicks.

What a wonderful gift to us all, Alistair! Thank you so much for the uplift.
All best

P.S. I’ll be in touch on a separate matter shortly.
