Some birds

Some birds I got pictures of yesterday. First from the river and then up on the ridge. Muscovy ducka Muscovy duck

carolina wren one of a pair of Carolina Wrens

downy woodpecker a tiny female Downy woodpecker

mockingbird and finally, a crazy mockingbird who's driving my father crazy by besieging his car. It walks all over and around it, pecking at the windows - doesn't seem to be attacking it, but rather trying to get in. The problem is that it's decorating the car with the purple remains of holly berries!
