Aeromoe's Life Birds Phoo Page

Below are some photos I have taken of birds in the wild...e.g. birds not in captivity. In April 2013 I began taking photos of birds when the opportunity presented itself. As the weeks drew on I became more interested in birds and bird photography and began venturing out into the wild to view and photograph birds. The table below represents some of my bird snapshots.

I have even installed some bird feeders in my backyard to attract the locals for a snack. As such, my backyard is now a haven for LBJs - Little Brown Jobs - such as House Finch and House Sparrow. Of course the local doves and, more recently pigeons, have discoverd the bounty to be had at feeding time. I also have one hummingbird feeder up and I have daily Anna's and Costa's Hummingbirds.

The photos below are arranged chronologically from most recent to earliest.
