White-breasted Nuthatch
 
Red-headed Woodpeckers
 
Downy Woodpeckers
 
Hairy Woodpeckers
 
Mourning Doves
 
Gray Catbird
 
Rose-breasted Grosbeak

 sparrow Sparrow

American Goldfinch


Bluejays



Turkey Vulture 
 
Owls- Unsure what kind but boy they sound wonderful!


Hawks
 

And my FAVORITE spotted last night...

 
I was so excited!

The sounds of night are so wonderful. The crickets, frogs, toads and night birds. 
On a clear night, the stars sparkle and there are so many I can't count them!


Of course the Mosquitoes
 

These have been known to carry people away in our area! So beware! LOL!
