It is easy to take a photo of something that is standing still. Photo taken in the State of New Jersey @anniem .

I see a tree face wearing a metal mask.

I spotted some buzzards resting in trees.  They are getting ready to head south for the winter.  @anniem, you might see them in a couple days as they are headed in your direction.

Ahhh! I love vultures! They are one of my favorite birds of prey.  :)
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

Hello @FISH ! I am procrastinating....I have a rather long list of things to do....*sigh* so I'm off!

Side note, yesterday we harvested the last of the apples and pears off of my espaliers. They turned out super yummy and beautiful!

Your apples and pears looks very BEAUTIFUL.
My 2021 garden has been invaded by insects. Spotted Lanternfly are taking over our gardens. :'( Last night, one of those Spotted lanternfly was walking on my WELCOME mat outside my front door.

Oh @anniem, I am so jealous.  I love hummingbirds but only have two of them, despite the fact that I have three feeding stations.  One of them spends all its time chasing the other away from the feeders.

We had 4 or 5 of them, and one always chased the other away. We got another feeder, and it was better. When we got the deck painted, the feeders had to come down for about two weeks. When we put them back up there was a swarm! There must have been babies born while the deck was being worked on, a couple were big but many were tiny. I really like watching them. I took some photos but they just didn't show the crowd well.

Wow Annie you weren't kidding! I like that.

Me too. They buzz. They can get really close when they are chasing one another.

@FISH, here is that clump of Pampas grass that I spoke of earlier.  I'd estimate its height at around eight to nine feet or so.  If you click on the images they will become slightly larger and clearer.
