When I opened my living-room shades this morning, this is who flew in (and managed to empty the front yard of all other birds). The visit was brief as two neighborhood American crows chased the Cooper's hawk away.

A Barn Owl is perched on a weathered wooden post, viewed from the side against a completely black background. The owl is dramatically lit from the front and left, highlighting its white, heart-shaped face, dark eyes, and the intricate brown and grey patterns on its wings.

A great-crested flycatcher that had visited cattails I grow in a tub in my yard. They collected fluff for use in their nest in the spring (May 2025).

I believe that most if not all of the juncos who over-wintered in my yard have begun their journeys north. I'll miss them as they are such beautiful, sweet little birds.

It was strange to see this bald eagle perched by a greatly drained pond for quite a long time but it had obviously found a desirable resting spot.
