Hello Debbie, wonderful photos of all the birds. I love the swans and heron. The duck is a cutie. Great capture of the singing Red-winged Blackbird. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend! PS, thanks for the comment.

Beautiful photos! In April at the ranch we had dozens of redwing blackbirds but in May I didn’t see one! I guess they were on their way somewhere else!

The swan is a magnificent bird! No wonder they were considered a sacred bird in Russia.
Great shots!

What beautiful swans. There used to be a pair at a park near us but they are gone. Lots of birds at our neighborhood pond last night though. Lots of bugs too! lol Enjoy your day. Looking at bird pics is a nice way to start my Sunday!

To me you capture shots of some rare birds at last ones we don’t see around here. The swan is a beauty as well as the others. I really like the one of the Redwinged Blackbird. Loved them all!
