That's a neat idea, Sharon, putting the suety feeder on a pulley. I'll have to modify mine. That's a great shot of the tree swallow, too. Little motion in there? The tanagers and the cowbird on your waterer is great as well. That's the wolf track waterer/birdbath?

Really like those western tanagers, Slick Pan. Nice shot. We've got them periodically, but not regular. This year we've got two hen Gambell's quail nesting in the yard, so the male's are on the black sunflower feeder almost constantly. Besides the tanagers, I really like the colors on the lazuli buntings.

The pileated woodpeckers are phenomenal. I have them here also. They remind me of a prehistoric type bird. We have quail every year. I have not seen the babies this year as in the past. Not sure they hatched or they moved on. We do not have the Bunting where I live in the forest. I wish we had more verity. Sometimes we have the Clark's nut hatch which are neat. The buntings are real pretty. Never seen some of those.

In the early mornings, when it was mostly still dark, a bird would start singing a very pretty song. It reminded me of a robin's morning song, but I knew it wasn't. I used my Merlin app to ID the song, and they called it the Dawn Song, which was definitely fitting. It's a relative of your bird, Slick Pan... (I didn't take the picture either)... .... a Summer Tanager.

The wonder of birds is in the striking colors, while all birds have their special features it’s the striking colors of some that catch our eyes. Here is a little sample from last couple weeks. 1) Dicksissel? 2) Indigo Bunting 3) Scarlet Tanager 4) Common Yellowthroat 5) Yellow Headed Blackbird

Jack. Now THAT'S a sound that drives me insane ! Those blasted Evening Grosbeaks. All they have is a loud , strident mono tone whistle . One or two is bad enough. But get a flock together, and the peace of the estate flies out the window All you hear is a bedlam of noise, that totally drowns out all the other birds. Or if you want quiet. Imagine a whole flock of your ex wife's voice ! LOL If only they are like the Black-Headed Grosbeaks. Their song is absolutely melodious...a joy to hear. And they're gorgeous. They are here too, but not in near the numbers.

All extremely great photos Tray. The hybrid of the western and Clark's is priceless. Do you see them quite a bit? I've watched the dance many times; never ceases to amaze me.

Jack We are on the extreme eastern edge of the Clark’s range, only see 1-2 a year and they are always paired up with a Western. Hybrids are about as common as a pure Clark’s.

I saw this bird one spring feeding in a wet field. For years I looked and talked to people trying to figure out what I had seen. Then a friend gave me Sibley field guide to western birds which I use quit often. Bingo! u And just when you think you have it figured out then a Glossy shows up. We have them occasionally mix in with flocks of White-faced Ibis but it takes a lot of patience on the scope to scan thru and look for one.

Great pictures. Good info on the hybrid greebs. I often see ones that I cannot decide which ones they are. Now I am thinking they are hybrid. I found this good mama in the trail the other day. She was distracting me from her babies. I thought I got video of the babies but apparently I am technologically challenged.

Wow, you really get a wide variety of wildlife from your house. I get many duck species in the spring and see many beaver, otter, muskrats, bear, and deer from my windows as well. The photos are not of great quality, but I do have pictures of all of those I just mentioned. My house sits about 20 feet from the water.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I have them pretty regular, but they don't use the feeder. I've never been able to get a good picture. That one is great, Slick Pan! Looks like a banded bird.

Some Least Sandpiper reflection shots. Shorebird migration has already started for the fall and there are usually the earliest sandpipers to come thru headed south. Who would have though that. Interesting.

I have those Tanagers too, they are found especially in big trees and deep woods. Here's one at the bird bath. A swallow launching like a missile out of the nest box...and Pileated woodpeckers , here's a couple at suet. Excuse the less than clear shots. I had an old camera. Good picture of a Violet -green Swallow Tachycineta thalassina females have white above their eyes and your shows it.

Sharron you are good at picking up whatever I lay down. Peaceful is always the mood watching the sunset over Corpus Christi bay with a big platter of seafood and crustaceans in front of me. That night, a pelican just happened to basically pose for a portrait.
I actually love watching them. They are literally the best fishermen I have ever seen. They look awkward but they sit on those poles and when they spot a fish, they demonstrate that God's creation is perfect. Good watching I always thought.

I thought I'd post some of our most common birds. Boreal Eurasia is pretty monotonous ornithology-wise, so they all have actual vernacular English (British) names. This one should be pretty common in the US, too. Fieldfares are the most common local thrush species. Some years they form big flocks in the winter, like waxwings. Just a pair of great tits. They like human company in the winter. Our biggest and most brazen woodpecker, the black woodpecker. They are very curious and will often follow you in the woods, screaming loudly. The nuthatch is a frequent bird feeder visitor (and bacon lover). Tree pipits are among the earliest birds to arrive from Africa. So are wagtails. They become one of the most abundant insectivorous species in the suburbs because tits and chickadees mostly leave residential areas by mid-May. This is what an actual goldfinch in the initial sense of the word looks like. They are incredibly hardy birds. I often see them flying and feeding at temperatures approaching -40 C (or F) when few other birds are visible. They visit bird feeders, but it's not uncommon to see them feeding on burdock seeds out in the forest-steppe. We have two sympatric species of cuckoos here, that are a bit hard to tell apart visually. This one's the common cuckoo. They become very visible and easy to photograph early in the mating season, in June. They spend winters in Southeast Asia. The most common woodpecker species in boreal Eurasia. As far as I know, Greater spotted woodpeckers sometimes visit Alaska, much to the local birders' delight, but they belong here. They're loud birds, and not too smart. They taste okay, though. Our Bohemian waxwings are a bit different from your Cedar waxwings. they gather in HUGE loud flocks in the winter and can completely strip mountain ash and crab apples off their frozen fruit in a matter of minutes. Very nice shots.

Tray, it was on Tangik Island, in the Aleutian Islands AK. There were 100's of pairs of the nesting on the hill side. We walked up, laid down and stuck our camera down the burrow arms length and took a picture. You would pull it out and look at it, if it was bad, you deleted it and took another. They are neat to watch. They fly laps in a large oval. They would all take off at once and come back in on the same lap.

I could look at bird pics for hours. Never get old. Welcome aboard Lenny. Thanks for the pics. Will have to disagree about the Blue Jay though. Yep, they are smart!. They seem to know when I'm gone and will come n pluck the baby robins/ doves out of the nest. Dispise them.

Tray There are a lot of neat birds there. Waterfowl we never see here. I really enjoyed my time on the islands. Look Tangik Island up, so you know where to head too.:) You can fly to Akutan and skiff over. When we left Tangik we skiffed over to Akutan, four of us in two 17 ft inflatables loaded with camo gear. Ran back the second day to get what we could not haul the first day. We flew out to Dutch Harbor on a Goose.

Thank you. I was a member here many moons ago but had to re-register due to old email no longer used. Understood about the jays but many other birds do that as well. Its the hard facts about wildlife. It ain't no hollywood disney show. We all know that so preaching to the choir here. Trappers are the most knowledgeable Wildlife people there are and in my opinion and experience have more respect for the outdoors than many fisherman and some hunters.

My Finnish X Siberian female Goshawk. Not sure why it’s sideways, but oh well.
Why do I carry 10mm? Because shooting twice is just silly.

I wish we had trees I haven’t seen 90% of those birds and I’ve been in the outdoors since I could walk. The big red headed looking woodpeckers are amazing. Thanks for everyone that posted

From previous band recoveries it’s most likely these geese are from the Calgary area. But anything is possible. our Winnipeg giant Canada geese go to two locations Swan Lake Minn or Rochester Minn. Seems that up to 50% of the Calgary geese do not migrate but feed on dried grass

I wholeheartedly agree, Tray. Back when I could hear, the winnowing was one of my favorites. My wife, who can still hear (doesn't have 7 thousand SuperCub hours) tells me pretty much every evening when we're enjoying our toddies, that the snipe at our house are winnowing.

Just returned from a trip to the jungles of Belize, so many awesome and colorful birds. Got to experience an army ant swarm moving thru the jungle floor, there is a number of birds that specialize in following these swarms catching bugs that the ants flush out. It’s kinda chaos with all the activity and trying to find and ID all the different birds. One thing I’ve learned about birding in the jungle is it really helps to have a local, guys that bird all the time and know the different calls will help locate and find the birds much faster then I can. Also found a fresh set of Jaguar tracks in the same location I did a couple years ago when I was there. Really wish I had the time to run a few trail cameras when I’m there.

Tray,Im curious, Does Merlin work there? Yes it does, but it didn’t seem as accurate as when I’ve used it in the US, and there was a few birds that it didn’t have. I would say it worked 95% of the time. Sometimes there is so many different birds singing at the same time so I think that confused it as much as it overwhelmed me.
