But the creme de la creme was the hour I spent with this couple underneath the railroad bridge!! They are setting up nest underneath there. Just a delightful way to spend some time!!
But they hardly ever came out into the sunlight!
But what was really astonishing for me is I was not aware of their beautiful song!!! It’s as lovely as any Oriole or other songster!! Give a listen if you’re not familiar.
Here’s a few birds from Colorado this week. This Junco was a window strike but we warmed him up and he flew away. Fingers crossed!!
Been hearing many of these on the Oregon Coast. Do you know the ID? (not the robin). Been extremely hard to see (much less photo) any of them. Too many trees!!!
Banana slug in Pac NW.
and a few more.
No birds here, but one of the best nature experiences of my life!!! Glad Mary was able to film while I took stills. Near Huntington, Utah.
I have a couple. This first one is from NE Oregon on 6/21/22, in Wallawa mountains at 6500 feet in meadows with trees adjacent to pine/oak woodlands. There were at least 5 of the same species within a few 100 yards of each other vocalizing many times.
