Squares and Circles
My contribution to the Squares and Circles A Photo a Week Challenge.
I was having some trouble with the squares part of challenge until I thought about some of the bird feeders made out of square mesh. Then I remembered the circular Oriole feeder we got last year.
A leucistic juvenile Great Spotted Woodpecker feeding on a square suet feeder made of square mesh. Leucistic means that the bird lacks dark pigmentation, what should be black is light brown on this bird. The shot was published in a magazinea decade or so ago.
A male Eurasian Siskin eating peanuts out of a circular, square mesh feeder. This shot was published in a magazine a couple of decades ago.

A couple of birds from week 20.
A couple of photos I was considering for week 20 of my 52 week photo project.
I’ve been photographing a few summer visitors recently, filling in some gaps in my files.
A female Rose-breasted Grosbeak (Pheucticus ludovicianus).
A male Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula) eating Grape jelly in an Oriole feeder. Not as colourful as some of the males that were around but this one is hanging around.
