Well, Spring is here and many birds can be found in backyards everywhere.
I understand that this first photo is not of a bird, but it helps lead into photos that I will be posting of birds in my own backyard.
In this post I will also make some corrections to two previous Birds All March on the Battlefield posts.

The photos in this post were taken on the Gettysburg National Military Park Battlefield, and they were taken during the Great Backyard Bird Count.

It's official folks!
One of my photos took 2nd Place in a photo contest.
No, the bird on the certificate is not the one I photographed.

Some of you may already know that I have participated in a project called Help Portrait.
For those of you who didn't know that, let me explain.
Well, this past weekend my oldest son turned 18.
It seems as though it wasn't too long ago that I was tossing him over my head and he was laughing with uncontrollable joy.
For today's post, I'm using some photos I took back in June, during a small photo walk through the Gettysburg National Military Park Cemetery.
