Springtime Backyard Nature in New Jersey.
It often seems that animals only want to look away and/or show their backside as soon as they see a camera lens.

Springtime Backyard Nature in New Jersey.
Some bigger birds stopped by the new bird feeders. Actually, they stayed on the ground below the feeder to work on the spilled seeds. First a male, then female Northern Cardinal. They were soon followed by a Blue Jay that chased the Cardinals away. After the Blue Jay left, a Mourning Dove showed up. Only small birds worked the bird feeders. The Black Crows stayed out in the grass, searching for insects.
Individual images in the slide shows can be viewed here.

Outdoor Springtime Nature in New Jersey.
Many of the small birds visiting the new bird feeder pick up a sunflower seed, and then fly off to extract the kernel from the shell. Some have learned to crack the seed and discard the shell while staying at the bird feeder.

Indoor Spring Nature in New Jersey.
The bright green version of the Stink Bug is new to me this year. It is smaller than the brown stink bug, but looks different from some of the ones I found in an online search.
