Birds 🐦
As we have started to become more interested in birds, we decided to start chronicaling the not-usual (to us) birds that we've
been able to get a picture of. A shout out to the Delaware Birders for assisting with the identification of some of these.
By not-usual, we mean those that are not a typical run-of-the-mill, everyday birds (again, to us). So robins, crows,
blue jays, wrens, that type. A cardinal will appear if it is particularly nice looking or if it is a snowy scene.
A finch may appear, but only because it didn't look like a finch.

An immature Cooper's hawk (or maybe a Harrier Hawk).
Probably not the same one as below in 2017, but perhaps an offspring of it.
