We have two species of woodpeckers that occasionally visit us, and they both always announce themselves with a sharp PIP!
This male hairy woodpecker landed at the very base of the tree before making his way up the trunk!

Crossbills love spruce and pine seeds. In the winter, when the trees are loaded with cones, flocks of crossbills will sometimes arrive in our area.
This male White-winged Crossbill has plucked a spruce cone and is very focused on getting out all the seeds!

We never thought we’d get to see them living in their own home. But on a recent trip to Kruger Park, South Africa, we were fortunate to see a scene I’ll never forget.
The Matriarch appeared out of the bush and slowly led her small elephant herd across the river.

Crow is our friend. She has a damaged wing, but can fly, and has come back to nest in the area, and hang out in our yard, for the last few years.
She’s getting a drink and is showing off the subtle iridescence that crow feathers have!

Soras are usually hiding in the reeds and not often seen. But what happens if you catch a nice juicy bug to take back to your kids, you’re at the edge of the reed bed, and you need to cross an open stretch of water?
