Sparrow at The Opera

I have shared similar photos before .. a small bird singing her heart out. I was just noticing how different various species of sparrow sound. It’s mind blowing. Get outdoors and listen to those little music makers. It is nothing short of beautiful and amazing.

The Robin Song

If you are in Ohio, have you seen (or heard) all of the Robins this past couple of weeks? They are really active, and so vocal. This one was extra brave and just ignored us.

Brood What?

These birds are Brown-headed Cowbirds. The Cowbird is a brood parasite. The female deposited their eggs in the nest of other birds of different species. The lighter colored one on the right is a female. Actually, I think the one right above her is also a female. I guess it’s that time of year, even for the cowbird.

By the way, some of the host birds recognize the ‘odd’ egg, and through them out of the nest.

I Don’t Think He Can See Me

This was a funny one. I saw this Eastern Bluebird fly into this tree. I guess I spooked him. He didn’t move. I really think he thought I didn’t see him:).

Northern Flicker

While hiking along the banks of the Miami River this week, I saw a larger bird fly into the tree line. I lost it in the trees. I kept looking, but just could not find her. A few minutes of walking later, we headed back the other direction. As we returned to the spot where I lost this bird, I saw something move. There she was .. A Northern Flicker. She just sit there long enough for me to take this photo.
