Fall Birds

Hello! This September we went to Sunriver for the weekend. I was really excited to see different types of birds there. I didn't see a ton of birds in the wild, but i was pleased to see the Nature Center  had a couple birds of prey that were caged. Most of them were injured from car accidents, and wouldn't survive living in the wild.

 Here is a Red-tailed Hawk. She was so pretty. When my sister and I visited her, she kept jumping from perch to perch, back and forth. I loved seeing all these birds up close, they are so beautiful.

 They had two owls at the Nature Center, a Barn Owl, and a Great Horned Owl.
 The Nature Center also released some Trumpeter Swans into the lake a while ago. There were five total, from what i saw. Two adults and three juveniles.


 I saw this flicker on a walk and i just love how the sun light is hitting his face.

 Two days ago a Yellow-Rumped Warbler ran into our window. We carefully picked him up and waited till he could fly away. He wasn't hurt, just shocked. I had been wanting to see a yellow-rumped warbler for a while, so it was really awesome to get to see, and hold one.
