For today's view here is a shot from one of the Cafe feeders. This is a new one that is a bit shaded so I need to work with the settings a little.

Until next time...

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Good day my friends. For today's view I would like to try another "update as I go" post. Meaning of course I am going to write part of the post now and update it throughout the day. I am still thinking about doing several small updates one day but not quite yet. I still need to think about how I would like to do that. So for now I would like to start the day with these shots I made in the back back section of the Cafe after work yesterday. As you will see I got down and up close and personal to bring you these dandelions and seeds. It was easy getting down but getting up is another story. The lengths I go to get the shot. It's now around 9:30am as I share these first photos.

Hey, I'm back. Okay I know you can't tell I was away from the computer for hours but I assure you I was. It is now 3:08 PM and I have a few shots from one of the Cafe feeders to show you. It was very busy and I saw a lot of cool birds including some bluejays and male cardinals.

It is now 4:36 PM and I am going to finish today's post with some shots from the front of the Cafe at the suet feeder. Suet is a favorite of our woodpeckers but as you can see the blackbirds will eat there too. Specifically this female red winged blackbird.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

I have been working on of the feeding stations for a little while now and I think it's coming along nicely. It's a little rustic but that's how I want it. And the birds and squirrels seem to like it that way. I will post some pictures in an upcoming edition but for today I would like to share a couple shots I made today after work.

And here is a quick video I made yesterday. It's a time lapse that was shot over the course of about an hour but is now condensed into around three minutes.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...

Today's photo shows another visitor we had at the Cafe yesterday. In fact we had a lot of these. This is a Red Winged blackbird enjoying a meal at our new feeder.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View

Today we go back two years and take a look at the original Cafe. The featured guest that day was this really cool Red Winged blackbird. He didn't seem to mind the other "bird" as he enjoyed a nice meal.

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

On our continuing journey Kim and I discovered a new place. And quite by accident might I add. Today we visited the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge that is located in both Ocean and Atlantic Counties in South New Jersey.

I will be making a special full sized post of our trip through the wildlife refuge soon but for today I would like to share this cool shot I got of a Red Winged Blackbird resting on a speed limit sign. And believe me you do not want to break this speed limit. Visit some time and you'll know why.

And now...

Hi and welcome to the Daily View!

It is said that patience is a virtue. And sometimes it is even rewarded. And that's just what happened today. On Saturday I once again expanded the Cafe by adding another new feeder and was kind of frustrated when none of the many birds present would give it a try. Then yesterday I noticed the food had been disturbed. I didn't see anyone using it but obviously they were. Then this afternoon I actually saw some birds eating from it. So I set up my camera and grabbed a bunch of shots. Today I would like to share this one with you.

A Red Winged Blackbird. Every once in awhile I'll see one or two but we don't really get a lot of them. I think it's pretty cool that it is the first bird I photographed at the new feeder.

And now...
