bird

This jay is coming in for a landing.

A bonded pair that eat together.

I used to have a boulder that was the perfect height to sit back from and shoot birds flying in & out from the seed on it. This jay was flying in over the boulder.

A blue jay tries to hold its place at the food when another flies in and tries to scare it off.

This blue jay is scattering seed to find the right ones.

This blue jay is scaring off another from the feeding post and hogging the food.

Blue jay has grabbed a mouthful of food and is flying to a safe eating place.

It was a beautiful day in RMNP today. My friend hiked up to Emerald Lake and then Alberta Falls were the birds came out because I guess they wanted my pumpkin flavored muffin! HA! (and no I did not feed the wildlife) Oh and also shot with the new Z6II / FTZ adapter and the 70-200mm lens. CC...

Leaving a swamp, I spotted this one working a log on the ground and carefully stopped right beside it, having to sneak out of my van and around the front and back ends to capture some shots. He saw me and kept on working the log.

Pileated woodpecker chipping out a branch.

A very successful nest where the pole with their original nest had been replaced during off season and they busily rebuilt the following season and raised chicks in the same location. This was the 1st location I actually heard pileateds inside a pole drilling it out while they were out of sight.

This cattle egret was an hour north of my NH home staying for days on a cow farm and in the lush green field across the street. It had been years since I had seen any them down in Essex, Massachusetts where I often saw them in the marshes. and golf course.

Redpolls usually only show up here in New England occasionally during the winter months seeking a food source when there is a scarcity further north.
