American Three-toed Woodpeckers - Two black and white woodpeckers with orange crowns interacting on a spruce tree, one is in flight and the other has flared tail feathers and is shaking its wings.

Great Grey Owl - A large grey owl with a pronounced facial disk sits in a tree.

Iceland Gull - A pale gull with a yellow bill, dark eye, and white wingtips in flight.

American Black Duck - Six chocolate brown ducks with lighter heads and a line through the eye, and greenish yellow beaks feed in a choppy tidepool.

I took a quick run up to Quebec City and Tadoussac last week to look for some #borealbirds - I had good luck, with various bangers such as ATTW, GGOW, ICGU, and some old acquaintances like ABDU. #CanadaBirding #Birding #Birds

Took a quick drive to #Montreal this Saturday to see Canada's 1st European #Robin - after searching without success all afternoon a small group of birders were treated to stunning views around an hour after the sun went down. What a bird! #birding #birds #europeanrobin #canadabirding

#BirdOfTheDay theme for Sunday, 7DEC25 is #BirdsOnTwigs, any bird on a thin branch. The Alternative theme is Ducks #OutOfWater.
I've chosen Song Sparrow, Red-winged Blackbird, Mallard, and American Wigeon.

A small bird is silhouetted on a bare branch against a vivid orange sunset sky. The foreground is dark, with out-of-focus shrubs and trees framing the bird. The glowing sun sets low on the horizon, casting a warm golden hue across the scene.

Something different for today. Either a yellow warbler or a common yellowthroat in a Nova Scotia sunset.

I have seen Bewick’s Swan (these recently at Walland Marsh) but not Tundra Swan as they are known in Canada and looking at “Birds in Ontario” found an answer to why they are called Cynus columbianus - ‘Lewis & Clark found these on the Columbia river hence the scientific name’ #birds #Canadabirding
