So cool to see the turquoise blue mouth of this Double-crested Cormorant during breeding season. Love its jewelled eye too! #birds #birdphotography

Zoomed in close up of a female Great Horned Owl perched high in a pine tree, 
looking down at me. Long ear tufts up, yellow eyes partly open, reddish face, white patch across its throat, broad chest, mottled reddish-grey body with lighter vertical stretch down its mid section.

A tiny saw-whet owl perched on a horizontal branch of a coniferous tree, with a larger branch just above its head, creating a frame. It is in profile view, but has its head turned and is looking directly at me with its yellow eyes

Whenever I'm lucky enough to find a Northern Saw-whet Owl, they are usually sound asleep. This one was awake and active, looking around, especially straight down - something on the ground had its interest. #birds #birding #HamOnt #owl

Male King Eider duck swimming in blue water. Short orange bill, yellow face shield, full bluish-grey head cap, off-white rounded breast, dark brownish-black back with pointy “sails” up on either side, white flash on flanks.

This male King Eider was truly a sight to see! Delighting many, this sea duck that breeds in the high Arctic has been spending the winter off Tommy Thompson Park in Toronto. To me, it looks as though he’s wearing a little swim cap. 😁 #kingeider #ducks #birds #birdphotography

Blue morph Snow Goose with white head and neck raised, orange beak, dark body, mixed dark and white flight feathers and white rump…floating in water in middle of four larger Canada Geese with black heads with off-white chin straps, black necks and brown bodies. One goose has its head and neck raised, swimming just beyond and behind and mirroring the snow goose, the others have their heads tucked in.

A male pine grosbeak perched in a coniferous tree, in profile view looking over his shoulder to the left. He is mostly pink, with soft gray flanks and underbelly, and blackish wings with two white wingbars. Very handsome!

Pure white adult male Snowy Owl set against a blue sky background. The top of its wooden hydro pole perch is showing in the photo. The owl’s head is turned to face me so that its dark narrow eyes and tiny dark beak show against its white feathers

It was a treat to see my first all white, adult male Snowy Owl. Bonus time was when the blue sky came out. 💙 #owls #birds #birdphotography
