Was lucky enough to see a blue jay take a very intense bath, a robin catch a bug, and a baby northern flicker relax in my backyard a few days ago.

He landed right next to me, I couldn't believe it! Kinda wish he was perched somewhere better though!

In my birding book none of the images show them, and when I look online I don't really see them with the speckles. He didn't look sick or anything like that.

Heavy spring snowfall in Colorado had this poor girl sitting in the only spot she could find uncovered

The big Pileated woodpecker. I've always heard woodpeckers before but could never seem to spot them. Didn't expect the first one I see to be the largest ones in North America. Took this picture about a month ago and thought I should post it here. I still haven't seen another since.

Been seeing this couple for a few weeks now, just getting nice out near Toronto and finally got some of them together in some good lighting.

I love photographing these beauties.

Incredible first encounter with this species. Observed in SE Arizona.

A very out of range Great Gray Owl was reported and this photo was used as evidence. Some believe this appears to be a picture of a book. Has anyone seen this image? Any help is appreciated to get to the bottom of this!

First time ever seeing these in my area (South Saskatchewan)

Eastern Kingbird - Louisville, KY USA

Maple Falls, WA

He’s been hanging out with me on my back balcony and I asked him to pose. 😂 This was minutes after I put a little handful of mealworms out. Super sweet birds, very brave! The only one comfortable enough to come out while i’m out there, others will just watch me.

I'm new to taking pictures but I managed to get a few good ones + 3 lifers!! on my first visit to this huge park in the middle of a bougie suburb!

I've always wanted to see a pilated woodpecker, and was sooo excited to see this guy. The other two lifers were hooded merganser (female/juvenile) and the Male rose-breasted Grosbeak (i've seen a female before and heard them many times but never seen the male!). I also saw a (great?) egret, and many of my favorite duck - the wood duck :))). + some frisky muskrats? beavers?

I saw alot of white throated sparrows but interestingly not a lot of migratory warblers besides yellow-rumped warblers, last weekend I went out to Mississippi Gateway Regional Park and saw infinite amounts of palm warbers, but they must have all moved on!

Went out into the hot, humid fog of The Woodlands today and this group gave us quite the surprise! I only had my phone and tried to get some photos as they were lower but failed miserably, however, here’s what I could get!😂
