We've spotted a great Blue heron along our river trail. He likes to perch on our neighbors bridge.
I saw my first Loon at Lake Willoughby last July. This photo shows a Common Loon with a juvenile rding along!
We have several hummingbird feeders within view of our dining room window. I always enjoy watching them as they dance and flitter around the food.
