Dine n Dash

This American Robin was oblivious to my presence as he was chowing down on some Japanese Honeysuckle berries. Robins are notorious berry eaters and this guy was no exception. He didn't stay long though. He grabbed a couple berries and split, a dine and dash.

I posted earlier this week about finding food sources that birds like to eat as a way to find birds to photograph. One other good thing about finding food sources is that there are usually plenty of birds in a small area, meaning you get more chances to get the perfect shot. I had several more pictures of a different robin feeding, but when I loaded them on the computer there was a twig right in front of it. Luckily for me this bird flew into view and I was able to shoot these shots before he flew away.

As always at this time of the week, check out the Pine River Review for World Bird Wednesday, where bird bloggers come together to share photos and experiences. Thanks for stopping by!

More Berry Madness

Brrrr! Man it got cold today, but I love it. Not sure how excited the birds were about the below freezing temperatures and snow. All the more reason to juice up on some berries.

If you look close at the picture above, the Northern Mockingbird has a little bit of berry shmutz on the side of his bill. Nothing to be embarrassed about little bird, we've all been there before.
