Kim, LOL! Glad it opened, that's another of my favorite shots.

Henry, you would love it! I'm gonna include a shot looking out towards the golf course at sunset. Gotta go upload it first....

This is taken from my back yard, and overlooking the golf course, which of course you can't TELL because it's too dark.... Actually looking towards Monterey.

And you can stay HERE - this is a shot I took of one of the beautiful bed & breakfast inns that is right along the waterfront.

This isn't "birdie" either but I love this one - took it in my yard a couple years ago.

Char, I just got a digital camera. When I figure out how to use it and load the pictures onto the computer (remember, I am technologically challenged) I will post some. That sunset is one of the best I have seen.

Thanks, Henry!

There are all KINDS of websites devoted to digital cameras and their use. You could google up a few and see what you like.

What kind of camera did you get? What kind of memory does it use to store the pics? I bought a little USB memory card reader on eBay for very little $$ and that's how I get my pics from my DSLR to the computer, then I just use Picturetrail or Shutterfly to upload them onto the Net, and then link to them there. It's pretty easy, you'll see!

Wow Char those pictures are beautiful. makes me want to get out my digital and go for a nature hike. Doubt I'd see such stunning birds though.

Rob, we are so lucky - all those birds come to US! LOL!!

We put a wild bird mix - millet, sunflower seeds - along the top of that wall every morning and evening, plus peanuts in the shell, which the jays, woodpeckers, and the tiny titmice just love. Cheap entertainment - all I gotta do is pull up my chair, get out my camera, and snap away.

I'd love to see someone ELSE post some pics! HINT HINT!

Here are some of my backyard visitors. Birds are a new discovery for me. I can watch the birds on my patio for hours. (and you thought ~your~ life was exciting! )
