Welcome To The Daily View

After weeks of getting used to the New Garden Cafe I think I am finally getting a better feel for it. I'm learning where everyone hangs out and likes to feed and who gets along with who and such. I am also figuring out what times of the day are best to observe and photograph. Today's photo in my opinion is one of my best since our move. I think you'll agree.

This is one of the many Grackles we see every day. I had actually set out to capture a Woodpecker or Cardinal but this guy showed up instead. And that's okay. Everyone needs to eat and as long as there is enough to go around I'm fine with it.

But I wasn't just out there with my camera. Today I pulled out my GoPro HERO 5 and captured some really cool video. You squirrel lovers will probably like to fast forward to 5:58 . Or better yet just watch the whole thing. It's a little more than 11 minutes.

As always this video is best viewed at 1080p and at full screen. Oh and turn up the volume for some real sounds of nature.

And now...
