So Louise had me install a couple of bird feeders on our deck. I don't think you would call us bird watchers, but it is interesting to watch all of the different types of birds that come to our feeder.
The thing is that my computer desk is right beside the patio door leading to the deck, so the feeders are only about 10 feet away from where I usually sit when I am working. Well, as the photo nut that I am, I can't resist slowly cracking open the patio door and sticking my camera through the slat.
Here is the result.
Oh, and there are a couple of other photos that I slipped in, some from Las Brisas - Huatulco, and others from other locations on our lake.
