And here’s a few other species — all of which were a bear to catch in a pix.
Love the antics and appeal of the Pygmy Nuthatches!!
Up in oregon now. I’ve heard Dusky, Cordilliran and pacific slope flycatchers by sound and location. Pix have been tough!! Golden eagle fly by yesterday. I love waking and going to sleep to the songs of Hermit and Swainson’s Thrushes. Glad we got up to the pacific NW to escape the heat
Enjoyed myself at the 2024 Gull Frolic north of Chicago last weekend!! Was disappointed there were no Great Black Back Gulls present, but highlights included great looks at both thayeri and kumlieni Iceland gulls, adult and immature and several different ages of lesser Black Back. Apparently the “warm” weather means many gulls were out floating…
Another beautiful day in Colorado!! With a few stunning birds!!
Here’s a few other recent birds from Montana and Wyoming. (the 1 day in my life we planned to go to Yellowstone — floods, evacuation and closure)
