A rose-brown bird with pink feet sits on the top bar of a chainlink fence facing the viewer. Its head is cocked to one side, seemingly to allow it to focus one eye squarely on the camera. Several feathers around its neck are noticeably ruffled.

I haven't felt this excited about anything in so long I'd forgotten what it feels like! I never thought I'd be lucky enough to see a Pileated Woodpecker in my yard. (Sorry for the language in the clip 😅) #BackyardBirding #NorthCarolina #PileatedWoodpecker

Four blackbirds perch on a main branch of a tree: on the left, a starling with back towards the camera; in the middle, two common grackles with iridescent necks looking up towards the sky; and a red-winged blackbird on the right in profile. The backdrop is several side branches from the main branch cutting across the frame.

Eastern Phoebe Missed my dawn birding trip to Pole Farm, but a patient lunch break delivered.

Eastern Phoebe I had planned to be at Pole Farm by dawn. Instead I overslept, and the window for bird photography closed before I could even get dressed. Working from home is supposed to give you flexibility, but that morning it gave me nothing except the awareness of what I’d missed. The Eastern Phoebe had shown up on Merlin the day before — just a detection, no photograph to go with it. So at lunch I took the X-T3 and the XF150-600mmF5.6-8 R LM OIS WR outside and sat in my Go Chair, the lens resting across my lap, and waited. One sassafras branch was a problem. The phoebe turned up and sat in exactly the wrong spot — the branch above casting a shadow that cut across its head, the whole bird half in shadow. There was nothing to do but wait it out. Eventually it moved to the bare branches of my neighbour’s tree, and I had my shot. Eastern Phoebe, Sayornis phoebe · Tuesday 24 March 2026 FujiFilm X-T3 · ISO 160 · 1/1000 sec XF150-600mmF5.6-8 R LM OIS WR · 600 mm · f/8.0 It’s a plain bird, the Eastern Phoebe. Brown cap, whitish throat, a wash of yellow-green on the belly. No wing bars to speak of. It doesn’t announce itself the way a woodpecker does. But there’s something compact and alert about it — the way it holds itself on a branch, slightly upright, watching. Looking at these frames, I keep thinking of the Yellow-bellied Elaenia I photographed in St. Vincent last May. Both are tyrant flycatchers — though the Elaenia carries considerably more yellow and a small crest that gives it a slightly rumpled look. The phoebe is neater, more composed. First photograph of this species. It took a missed alarm, a half-shadowed sassafras, and a lunch break to get it. ### Like this: Like Loading...

A brown bird with a light, speckled breast is perched on a branch outside our front door.  This is a Hermit Thrush, a lovely bird that generally puts in an appearance in the Adirondack region by late April. This bird is a short-distance migrant. It winters in the southern US, rarely crossing the Gulf of Mexico. In eastern and central North America, males begin migrating north in March, arriving in our part of the Adirondack Mountains in late April.

The Hermit Thrush breeds in a wide range of forest types, including conifer, northern hardwood, and mixed forest. The Hermit Thrush is seen infrequently, but it is commonly heard singing its haunting, evocative song. This thrush is part of a pair that were breeding on our property. The other thrush that breeds on our property  is the Swainson’s Thrush.
