It's not the best photo, but this was my newest lifer, a Brown Creeper. It's camouflage is great when on the trunk of tree, hard to spot.

This image looks like a multiple-exposure shot of one duck coming in, but it's a group of five.

Eastern Bluebird from this morning's bird walk.
The 19-box bluebird nest box trail that I monitor already has three partially completed bluebird nests!

My Merlin BotD was the Red-Winged Blackbird. Found this guy hanging out atop a lamppost globe near sunset. I lined him up with the full moon then waited for a good shot of him making a call so it looked like he was howling at the moon.

American Oystercatchers are my favorite shorebird, with their charismatic orange bill, yellow eyes, and pink legs.

Just look at this gorgeous Mourning Dove in the late afternoon sun.

With a close look in good light, even relatively plain birds exhibit stunning beauty.

No doubt wondering why he came north so early in light of today's snow.

All the cool ducks hang out together: Ring-necked, Canvasback, Redheads

Look who’s back! Big flocks were moving north these last two days with a few pairs foraging on the ground, unconcerned by the nearby humans (as long as those humans stayed on the trail). #sandhillcrane #birding #birdingphotography #birdphotography
A new lifer for me today. A Snow goose, a rare sight that must be making its way north. They made a stopover at the pond in the West Ridge Nature Park.
