    Common Merganser mother helping her chicks become strong swimmers. She was guiding them up the fastest rapids of a mountain river. Once they got to the top of the rapids, she would have them float back down and start over again, and again.

    Baltimore Oriole

    This juvenile Baltimore Oriole was going to my feeder and went and sat in this tree. I managed to get a good shot of it because it was right outside my bedroom window.

  8. House Sparrow

    House Sparrow

    This little guy kept flying from the ground up to the feeder. I wanted to get a photo, but he kept moving! Eventually, he stood still for a few seconds, so I snapped 5 different photos and chose my favorite angle! They may be invasive, but I can't help but find them adorable.

    Reflecting on Hummingbirds...(Archilochus colubris)

    Ruby throated Hummingbird. The two shots are of the same bird, taken about 1 second apart. The bird turning his head a fraction of an inch into the direction of the morning sun made the difference in the color difference in his red 'necklace' and to a lesser extent the green feather color on...
