Middle of everywhere. Where Oz was from. Possibly a cat in another life. Will travel for bird, food, and beauty. Amateur birder. All images and ideas are mine. Not a professional account.
😄 I have met two of the 4. They are indeed judgmental.

So is this one 😀

This downy woodpecker is so round I worry it's gonna fall off the tree.

Sometimes the tufted titmouse does want to pretend to be a blue jay.

Finally a good look at this tufted titmouse from afar, with my telephoto zoom lens. Handsome fella.

It's hanging out with the nuthatches, the chickadees, and the woodpeckers today.

A male northern cardinal that is very #borb like

I actually find this black-capped chickadee to be a bit intimidating, and a little like an onigiri (Japanese rice ball).

I guess it's dinner time.

This sweet northern flicker is snacking at the perfect spot, at the perfect time!

Good news! I found not only one tufted titmouse today, but two. Unfortunately, sometimes it's still moving too quickly for me to stay in focus! I was following this little one from afar for a good half an hour :)

A sleepy great-horned owl at the wildlife refuge. Taken at quite a distance with a zoom lens so as not to disturb the bird.

As out of focus as this was, it's the FIRST TIME I caught a tufted titmouse on camera since October 2024!

My favorite bird of this size, with the best hairstyle.

This bird, wait, not a bird, popped into the frame as I was trying to focus on a bluebird.

Okay, stop looking at me. I need to focus.

Northern Flickers are pretty darn cute when they let you photograph them.

Current attitude: This bird.

This was the only time I've successfully photographed a tufted titmouse.

October 2024 at the Ramble in Central Park NYC.

This Costa's hummingbird is my favorite bird of 2025.

A little out of focus yielded a fuzzy #borb

Glad to see the dark-eyed junco return

Here is another shot of the northern lights from Tuesday.
Obviously it's brighter on camera. :)

Aurora borealis, at this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country 😉
