Like A Boss

I have been trying to capture a photo of an Eastern Phoebe for a couple weeks, but they have been avoiding my lens. I finally was successful. I love their tune .. a unique sound. ❤️

This dude was just acting like the boss ..

Waxwing!

The weather has been amazing, but I like hot weather. We were hiking along the Miami River this week and I was so surprised with we saw this Cedar Waxwing. I think it was later in the season last year when I started to see them last year, but there he was. Some of the colors are not visible in this photo due to the location and angles involved, but very cool.

White Crown

I have seen a couple White-crowned Sparrows recently but only captured this one photo. Sparrows come in some many differnet ‘looks’. The white crown is cool.

The Other Red Bird

We photographed these two Scarlet Tanager while hiking this past weekend. I have photographed males before, but this was the first time I think I have captured a photo of a female.

Let’s backup a litttle. I shot the 1st and 3rd photo. Teresa took the 2nd photo. They are a beautiful bird.

As for the female … yesterday I shared a photo of a female orchard oriole. I still believe that was correclty identified. That said, the female scarlet tanager looks a lot like the female orchard oriole (to me anyway). The blacks are deeper in the oriole and I see a difference in the beak too. If you disagree, please let me know.

An Orchard Find

This is a first. I saw this beautiful bird while hiking on Sunday. I believe it is a female Orchard Oriole. When I took the photo, I saw the yellow and thought it was a variety of warbler. I am very excited about this photo.
