Finally finished processing all the pictures from my trip, and I'll be sharing some of my favourites here. eBird trip report with them all, even the not-so-good/"ID Quality" ones: ebird.org/tripreport/122208

On the first real day of birding, there was a being very photogenic, as well as a looking fabulous and a male checking out some holes in a tree.

Friday is for the birds. Apparently.

Took a walk through the Washington Park Arboretum yesterday. Lots of trees in flower over there, but the thing I ended up pointing the camera at the most were the birds.

Fujifilm X-T4, Fujifilm 70-300 f4-5.6

Saw a spotted towhee perched on a tree next to my yard today. This bird was calling for a mate. A male showed up but flew below the fence before I could snap a picture.

Spotted* towhees always look wonderfully cranky and possessed, but they also do a charming, funny little two-footed, back-and-forth hopping--"double scratching"--on the ground to scratch up seeds and bug snacks. They are adorably freaky and awesome.

*If I hadn't spotted this , would it just be a towhee? 🤔

Sometimes called the Oregon towhee (as though anyone could own them), this is such a round, hearty joy this morning, especially with eir head thrown back in song.

One of my guides describes the song as a "drier, faster take on the Eastern towhee's drink-your-tea song." To me, it is a lovely, homespun trill, such as you might be able to come up with using items found around your kitchen. Anyway, good morning.

A younger , not yet come into their brilliant ruby eyes. They were enjoying a morning without a heavy rain. "For the birds", the idiom goes. Idioms reveal a lot about the culture that came up with them. Imagine! If something is "for the birds" than it's deemed worthless, meaningless. When we diminish our living kin, we diminish ourselves.

I hike frequently to cleanse my mind and seek the solace of nature to help balance the madness of politics with the peace of nature. This is a Spotted Towhee, a winter visitor. A large New World Sparrow (Passerellidae), it resides in deep thickens, but can be bold when singing. We are lucky to see western and eastern bird ranges overlapping at

More pictures from last weekend. A chilly looking , a in the morning sun, crunching on some snow, and a puffed up against the cold. The Chickadee picture is a new favourite.
