Serene Dove On Winter Branch

This is one of the more interesting photos I have taken of a Mourning Dove. The lighting was just right to give this an interesting highlight.

Sapsucker

We certainly did not expect to see this Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. I have photographed them in the past but it has been a long time. This one was going to town on that suet cake then landed in a nearby tree. Teresa captured photo of him in the tree. He was hard to see there. What a cool woodpecker.

Foxy …

After the 'big' snow fall this weekend we saw a Red Fox (actually two of them). You don't often see them in open fields like this.

Let’s Crash This Feeder Party

A few days back, we planned to stop and add bird feed to the feeder at Big Woods. As we approached, I could see this hawk in the tree right beside the feeder. I was shocked to see so many birds at the feeder with this hawk right there, eyeballing dinner.

I thought this was a Broad-winged Hawk but Apple Photos sayd it is Red-shouldered Hawk. I uses several apps anbd AI tools and it was different for most of them so who knows. I sure love those eyes.
