Junco amidst plum flowers

It's been quite a week and I haven't even glanced in my backyard for days. I had forgotten that early February is plum blossom time. Which is just one of the benefits of looking through old photographs. In the center of this photo, we can see a junco sitting amidst a storm of white plum blossoms. Its white breast and stubby beak rhyme with the flowers, but its light brown back, black head, and dark tail somehow blend into the green background.

This lateral view shows a great egret standing in the snow on a riverbank. The bird has tucked its head in.

Female house finch in my back yard

Male house finches have bright red heads. Bright. Female house finches are less flamboyant. In the photo, we see a brown, white, and yellow bird (no red) leaning toward us as it balances on the edge of a clay planting pot. Its long claws are in evidence on the inside of the pot's rim. The most showy part of the bird is its shiny beak.

It must be nice to have your own built-in down sleeping bag when it gets this cold.

#pittsbirds #backyardbirding #birds #birdsofmastodon
In focus on the right side of the image, a small brownish finch sits on a small branch looking alert. A blurred black, white, and red object clings to a larger branch on the left. In focus on the left side of the image, a black-and-white-striped woodpecker clings to a branch. Its red-capped head is turned almost completely backward and shoved under its own wing feathers for warmth. Out of focus on the right, a small brownish blur sits on a small branch looking alert.

Doot doot doo, just a normal morning refilling the bird feeders and the birdbath… wait. Stop. Enhance.

Sir, it is 7:30am and you are a hawk. What are you doing rustling around in my neighbor's bushes?

#pittsbirds #backyardbirding #birds #birdsofmastodon
A view of several back yards, covered in snow and eventually backing onto other houses. In the foreground is a neighbor's patio, with a snow-covered grill and two snow-covered trash cans… and a suspicious shape lurking behind one of them. The foreground of the previous picture, zoomed in to focus on the snow-covered trash cans and the lurking shape behind the one on the left. The same image, cropped, zoomed, and slightly adjusted. The lurking shape now appears distinctly hawk-shaped and you can just make out juvenile Cooper's coloration despite the blue pre-dawn cast of the image.

Herring gull (Larus argentatus, 🇩🇪 Silbermöwe, 🇵🇱 mewa srebrzysta) - #portrait

#birds #birdphotography #birdsofmastodon #birdwatching #nature #naturephotography #vogelflausch #ptaki
This is a close-up, side-on view of the head of an adult herring gull in its breeding plumage, set against a blurred backdrop of snow and ice. The bird has a yellow bill with a red gonydeal spot and a yellow-to-orange rim around the eye, as well as a pale yellow iris. Its head is completely white.

And an additional fun shot of each.

#pittsbirds #backyardbirding #birds #birdsofmastodon
A brown-backed juvenile Cooper's hawk flaps its out-of-focus wings and raises one out-of-focus talon as it works to maintain its balance on a wooden fence. A reddish-brown-headed red-tailed hawk with a fiercely curved bill and deep-set eyes stares to the left of the photo. It appears to just have remembered some traumatic childhood experience.

I begin to question which birds I'm feeding here. 😅

Juvenile Cooper's this morning, red-tailed just now. Definitely a record. 😍

#pittsbirds #backyardbirding #birds #birdsofmastodon
A hawk with brown head and back, brown-streaked white chest , and barred tail sits on a chain-link fence, partially obscured by a finch feeder. A fierce-looking hawk with a sharply curved beak, flared reddish-brown head feathers, brown back, white chest, and patterns of white-and-brown feathers around the belly, and dark-colored tail sits on a metal fence post. Houses are visible in the background.

Female flicker turning its back on us

I think this is a female because - males are usually more strikingly colored. But still this flicker is pretty stunning. She's turned her back on us and is thereby showing off the red-edged feathers of its black and white striped wings, its black-and-white back end and breast, and the golden-brown feathers on the back and top of its head. This bird is standing on the railing of my back deck.

Charlotte breaks a snowfall record today. Weather Channel reminded us last significant snow was 2004. Can I even find the snow shovel?

There is a frenzy at our bird feeders. I'll get a video later with the action from multiple feeders at the same time.

View through a window, looking down at a bird feeder on a snowy deck, with multiple small brown birds and a red cardinal feeding; a large green houeplant leaf obscures part of the view.
