First warbler for the season for me! 😍
We noticed a bright flash of yellow and found this lovely Pine Warbler who was not in a Pine tree. 😉

This Osprey took my by surprise as I was looking elsewhere.
👀🐠👀🐡
I missed the water shot but got him as he flew over. 🥰🥰🥰

Such a thrill to see a Common Loon fishing right outside my home! 🐠🐡
This beauty is getting his summer/breeding plumage.
He won't be here much longer, trading saltwater for fresh as he migrates up north to start a family. 💕 🪹

It's so nice when a bird lands right where you want him.
Such a vibrant Kestrel. 💕

Lark Sparrow, never common or even uncommon in New York City, is a great way to start the #brooklynbirding year! #birdsseenin2026 #birding This individual seems to be trying to make it through the winter - although it hadn’t been seen since 11/23 I’m certain it’s the same #bird reported then!
It's always nice when a Carolina Wren poses for you!
I heard the little bugger before I spotted him.
So happy as wrens are pretty elusive. 💕
Happy Christmas Eve!!! 🤶🎄

Boy have they arrived! 💕
The last still shows the little cutie at his normal size.

A week ago it seemed like Black-throated Green Warblers were everywhere. 💕
They start their fall migration in late September so we were just a nice refueling stop before they continued down south.

The Palm Warblers have arrived and they are pretty cheeky. 🥰

The beauty of a Northern Parula. 💜
We were getting eaten alive by insects while observing this magnificent warbler. 🦟🐞🪲
It was totally worth it! 😍

This Northern Mockingbird was giving me stink eye because I wasn't paying attention to him.
I was busy looking at a flycatcher.
To his credit-he sure was cute! 🥰

This was a family of 9 over the weekend, these 3 are the last left (Snapping turtles likely got the rest) Another mallard came over and was harassing the family, mom went to go take care of business, leaving these cute little fuzzballs to chase after her. 😍 #birds #greenwoodcemetary #brooklynbirding
Watching this juvenile Red-headed Woodpecker grow up is such a great experience!

Cooper's Hawk perched outside of my window this morning. It stayed there for about an hour #BrooklynBirding

I've been neglecting posting here, but here's some catchup from my spring break this week 🐦 #birds #brooklynbirding #MarinePark #ProspectPark #GreenwoodCemetery
4x5 photo of a black-crowned night heron. They're barely peaking out into the sunlight from a rotted cavity in a wrecked ship (not shown here). Light brings out the eye's ferocious red as the rest of its body dissolves into shadow.
A 16x9 version of the same heron. This one shows less of its body but has more shadow to frame its facial features.
Another bird I'm excited to see returning to the northeast US: the black-crowned night heron!
I can't decide which crop I like better on this guy; I'm usually disposed to 16x9s but the 4x5 looks great too. #birds #herons #Brooklynbirding #SpringMigration

The red-winged blackbirds are back to finally give our local sparrows some company in the tall reeds. #birds #brooklynbirding #MarinePark
