Despite the #snowstorm, springtime appears to be underway based on this Winged One. The redpolls are coloring up as well.

Snow has arrived and with it many local flocks. Reference photos below, they are NOT for enjoyment, hahaha-- one more month and I will have a camera back (these are just my phone). #Wisconsin #UpNorth #birding #birds #winter #birdpictures #pirdphotos #goldfinch #purplefinch #junco #redpoll #turkey
What a great spring day-- #birds everywhere, including the first #Robin of the year!
Also, my friend #grouse ( #ruffedgrouse to strangers) was up in the #crabapple #tree again.

#redpolls rolled in a bit ago-- first time in awhile. They make beautiful sounds huddled together in the tree, #peaceful and #serene.
Look for maroon head cap and some chest coloration.
Black #squirrel photo bomb as well.

There's one in every crowd... #Genius!
I mean, they ARE #birds, so why not make it easy on yourself?
I have never ever seen a turkey do this, pretty hilarious.
(Pardon the view, but black squares prevent bird strikes.)

A black, white, and red pileated woodpecker clings to the side of a tree.
Birds. Its all they want.
An infrequent visitor.
Large-- 15 to 20 inches, 50cm, long.
Makes fantastic ovals in trees like a tiny chainsaw.

Many hues of blue show on a blue Jay sitting on a tree with snow.

This is an incredible share all the way from Hokkaido! Thank you to @toritorihkd.bsky.social
These sea eagles migrate south to Hokkaido for winter, tough as iron!

A male downy woodpecker, bottom, with a male hairy woodpecker, above. Click for full photo. On average, hairy is 40%-50% larger than a downy. Amazing to me how similar.

Was doing some yard work yesterday when I heard an odd hammering by my shed. It sounded like a woodpecker but too loud for the Hairys & Downys that are usually around. I was so surprised when I saw this big, beautiful Pileated on a rotted birch trunk, unfazed by me.
One final bird post until next year. I suspect the nest will be empty soon. #bird #birds #birdpictures

These two were in the same area! One was out foraging and swimming around and the other was taking a snooze! #muteswan #bird #birdpictures #animalphotos #nature #naturephotography

Much better photo-- the #whitethroatedsparrow #forages like fox sparrows-- they use their feet to turn the soil-- very fun to watch. #sparrow #upnorth #wisconsin #bird #birds #birding #naturetherapy #foraging #art #artist #artists #photo #photography #naturephotography #ornithology #birdpictures

Likely female. Essentially the same as the male, but not as bright. #upnorth #wisconsin #bird #birds #birding #naturetherapy #yellowrumpedwarbler #warbler #art #artist #artists #photo #photography #naturephotography #ornithology #birdphotos #birdpictures
Migration continues-- sharing for species ID, not because its a good photo. White throat patch. #whitethroatedsparrow #sparrow #upnorth #wisconsin #bird #birds #birding #naturetherapy #foraging #art #artist #artists #photo #photography #naturephotography #ornithology #birdphotos #birdpictures

Ruffed grouse-- they love tender bits and fruits high up in the trees; 3 photos showing how high they go.
