Hungry Sparrow side eye time in the garden: Tree Sparrow being cautious in the Burning Bush.

My favourite sparrow has arrived: the White-throated Sparrow. I hope he stays for the summer. I love his song "Oh sweet Canada Canada,..." 🎶.
Those sticks though ... 🤨 .

An intimate moment. These are tiger beetles. I wonder if the colour scheme is sexual dimorphism or just happenstance. #StickHappens

Another tiger beetle. Unfortunately #StickHappens.

@coprolite9000 @HelensPhotos a classic of the #StickHappens (or I guess in this case #LeafHappens) genre! 😂

Last few Manu Road #BirdsSeenIn2022, mostly truly terrible examples of #StickHappens: Chestnut-bellied Mountain Tanager, Superciliaried Hemispingus, Golden-collared Tanager and literally the only photo I got of the endemic Creamy-crested Spinetail 🤦‍♀️ 4/10

#BirdsOfPeru

Also from the Manu Road: male and female Golden-headed Quetzal, Grass-green Tanager, Yellow-throated Chlorospingus. Getting increasingly into #StickHappens territory with a lot of these photos from here on out... 😬 2/10

Birding and photography have taken a back seat to a very busy life right now, so fresh photos are not in the foreseeable future. Here's a Scarlet Tanager in his fall plumage I captured during migration in 2021.
