Backyard Summertime Nature in New Jersey.

Early Morning (05:30) Lawn Service. Mommy is allowing junior to get closer to the house, now within 10 meters. Next thing they will be in my wildflower patch. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 1600, 600 mm, f/4, 1/50 sec). The early morning clouds were yellow giving everything a warm glow.

Testosterone pumped-up male Brown-headed Cowbird. This guy keeps attacking its reflection in the window. It kept up with this all day yesterday and is back this morning. Some of the time his girlfriend sits and watches his antics. Image taken with a Nikon 1 V3 camera and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 450, 300 mm, f/5.6, 1/250 sec).
