A breezy Sunday morning and a guided walk through part of Swatara SP gave me an opportunity to take some pictures. Thanks Dave!

The Regular Crowd

I got the hunting blind out in front of the waterfall for the first time this year. I've missed the   migrants but the regular crowd are always worth photographing. One thing I've never noticed before was that the Grackles often came to the water with a mouthful of food. They then wet the food several times and flew off with presumably to feed the young still in the nest and to give them a bit of water as well.

Green Eyed Monster

Yes he's cute but he's BAD. Except when he's sleeping and he's good sleeper.
