But the plot thickens. More than a simple window strike, my wife sent this grainy photo of an unidentified hawk in a subsequent text: “I think it’s this guy’s fault, and now he’s looming.” Looks like a pursuit gone awry – and unfortunately the suspect was too skittish to claim its prize. #birds

High drama at home this AM while I was out searching for snowy owls. My wife heard a thump on our front window, and texted that a “medium size bird, grey with a bit of orange on its chest” was dead on the deck. I said leave it be, and later ID’d the victim as this female pine grosbeak. #birds

HELL YEAH NUTHATCHES! Merp is back for another winter of creative clinging to the dangling backyard suet feeder. Lookit that gorgeous colour and patterning! What a great bird. #HellYeahNuthatches #NuthatchSky #birds

BEHOLD!! Taken today through my living room window, the one and only photo I got of the first pine grosbeaks I’ve ever seen in my yard. #WorstBirdPic

A black-morph eastern grey squirrel – one of the critters I look for, and love, while visiting out east. This one may or may not be asking if I would indeed like a piece of them. #SquirrelSky

A bonus from visiting my dad in Ontario at this time of year – despite the unexpected dump of snow – was catching up with migrating dark-eyed juncos that have moved on from my backyard. Junco times are fun-co times! #birds

I’m in southern Ontario, receiving a nice dose of extended autumn… kind of. Searching for my annual northern cardinal but so far no dice.

You could use this one. Full disclosure: it’s a hand-held bird during an outdoor songbird banding session.

A backyard camera-feeder first: this big hairy woodpecker roots through the scraps left behind by a big hairy squirrel. I’m getting my suet log up and running today – more to this guy’s liking. #birds

RAWR!!! Happy Halloween! My unintentionally most frightening bird photo of all time remains this grey-crowned crane, at the International Crane Foundation in Wisconsin in 2012. I was thankful for the fence. #birds

I’ve seen many photos of saw-whets over the years, displaying the species’ keen stink-eye ability. It was humbling, to be this owl’s target. #birds
