That owl gets around! Supersonic flight. Did you hear a little boom when it took off?

Robins will absolutely strip holly trees of berries in early spring. It's getting close to that time. Not sure exactly when it happens. Whole tree will be filled with birds, and a couple days later, all the berries are gone.

There were about a dozen robins drinking out of Spot's bowl, but a bunch took off before I got my phone.

I think animals aren't as dumb as they sometimes seem. They probably calculated a sketchy uber had better prospects than staying put.

That one at my friend's place is the only time I've seen one mess with a structure. I only see them in trees.

A bunch of years ago I was at a friend's house, and next door there was a woodpecker drumming on a piece of aluminum on the barn. Holy hell that was loud :^D

All my trees have woodpeckers. That's a good thing, right? :^D I was watching a couple pileated woodpeckers in my pine spar. Super cool birds, and they can really move some bark/wood. Pic didn't turn out great cause it's on max zoom, but it's what I've got...

The name "tanager" is familiar to me, but I don't know from where. I'm wondering if I saw one of the varieties around here and looked them up. I might have to dig around, and see if I could expect to find one out this way. A quick look on wikipedia says they're mainly tropical birds, but that...

Here's an android app that might be interesting to some. I'm sure there's a thousand of these on the playstore with varying degrees of spyware added, but this one should be clean, and the source code can be examined if desired. ID bird songs...

Pterodactyls! They look pretty cool when then fly. They also look cool when they perch in trees. Kind of weird seeing such a big bird in the trees.

Huh... I didn't know woodpeckers flocked. I don't think I've seen more than two at a time.

I used to see kestrels a good bit. More than once a year for sure. I saw one perched a couple months ago, but aside from that it's been years. I made a half assed attempt to see if anything happened to them, but everything I saw said 'no problem'. Dunno why they aren't as plentiful as they used...

Kingfishers are cool. I used to see them a good bit when I was paddling all the time, but I don't often see them in my daily travels.

That would be super if there's still some ivory bills left. Like the article said, I've been hearing about possible sightings for a long time, but nothing definitive.

I'd put stakes around killdeer nests on construction sites when they were out of the immediate construction area, but still in danger of getting squished. I don't know if that was the right thing to do or not. I never came back to find a staked nest with chicks in it, but I come and go from...

I love killdeer! They're fun birds. I always try to find the nest when I have some time to kill.

The ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is a species of hummingbird that generally spends the winter in Central America, Mexico, and Florida, and migrates to Canada and other parts of Eastern North America for the summer to breed. It is by far the most common hummingbird seen east...

Good to see ya Brett! Hummingbirds go to Mexico, don't they?
