Okay, I'll play. It was so hard to choose a picture for this contest - I have a camera set up at my dining room window for the sole purpose of taking pictures of the wild birds in the yard. We have a very natural looking small trout pond (roughly 20 x 15 feet and 5 feet is the deepest hole) which attracts an unbelievable amount of birds of all species. We have recently decided to incorporate koi. We have planted over 100 trees and shrubs, in a normal size yard, for bird habitat - food (berries, insects etc.), foraging, nesting, protection etc. In the fall, we have all the juvenile bohemian and cedar waxwings that arrive in flocks of hundreds, descending on the pond and trees. In this picture, these two are after the hawthorne berries ...
