This beautiful Rock Wren at the visitors center at Desert National Wildlife Refuge. The colors on these Wrens is just stunning! #mplsbirder #rockwren #birds #birdphotography #nvbirds #naturephotography #nevada #nevadabirds #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birdwatcher #birding
Among the notable birds in Nevada I saw, one was this Costa Hummingbird at the Henderson Bird Preserve! The hummingbirds I saw were all busy protecting their territory.

Took a trip towards MSP airport to look for the snowy owl. Spent only about an hour before the cold beat me 🥶 Did see a rough-legged hawk and a tiny American Kestrel! Over all not too bad! #mplsbirder #americankestrel #mnbirds #minnesota #minnesotabirds #wildlifephotography #birdwatcher #birding
Pileated woodpecker on side of tree during fall
Love photographing woodpecker! I feel like they get so into their task they tend to ignore the rest of the world so I can get close and get some good photos 📷

Red-tailed hawk flying in sky
Red-tailed hawk perched in tree with no leaves
My resident red-tailed hawk pair that has been seen in the same park by my house all season! 🥰 It's always great getting some photos of these two. I hope they will stick around for next season! #mplsbirder #redtailedhawk #birdphotography #mnbirds #minnesota #minnesotabirds #birdwatcher #birding
American robin bathing in shallow puddle
Robins are pretty common in Minnesota so I think they don’t get as much love as some of the more “rare” birds but they are certainly just as cute 🥰

A thanks to #Wingspan from @stonemaiergames.com for my green heron fact today! Did you know that green herons drop insects and other objects onto the water to attract fish!

Adult Osprey mid taking off from dead tree branch.
One of my favorite pictures I took this last year. Two adult Osprey were hunting in a small river near my house with juveniles watching!
