I like this photo because it shows the subtle, yet beautiful pattern of the feathers across a male cardinal's back. The odd lighting and dash of bright red makes my focus always come back to that thoughtful, glimmering eye. 🪶 #cardinal #birdwatching

The "I'm coming for your lunch money" vibe that this grackle was giving off was too funny. Still one of my favorite pictures and birds. 🪶 #birds #blackbirds #grackle

Great Blue Heron showing great focus towards nabbing the next meal. I never realized just how sharp the tips of their beaks were until I got a closer look. 🪶 #birdwatching

Sapsucker doing what he does best: putting holes in my Japanese maple. And you know what? I love it. 🪶 #birdwatching

Life can be busy
Nature is always present
Reconnect with life.

For my birthday I have really been enjoying Midnight Walk from @moonhood.bsky.social

If you are a fan of mood, art, and anything like Kubo, Coraline, or Nightmare Before Christmas... check this out.

Any female eastern towhees out there? Cause I know a fella who would love to sing you a song. 🪶 🎵

My guy was really belting it out. I heard him from half a mile away, lol.

This hermit thrush was nice enough to pose for me on my morning walk. What a cutie. 🪶

Absolutely adore these fiesty little gentlemen. American goldfinch males (mostly) in their breeding plumage on an otherwise dreary day. 🪶

Who doesn't enjoy the bright flashes of color as Northern Carrdinals forage and flit about in the wintery woods? Bird watching in the snow is one of my favorite ways to enjoy our feathered friends. 🪶 #birds

The tundra swans have returned. The sounds and calls a flock of them make when they gather together is surreal. 🪶 #winterbirds

It has been so cold that this hermit thrush was only willing to perch on one leg. 🪶 #chilly #notapenguin

Still one of my favorite GBH photos. I dont know if it's the simplicity or because it looks like a painting to my eye, but this image of this incredible bird still captures me. 🪶

One of my favorite photos that I've ever taken. The soft glow of the morning light on these two just feels so right. 🪶

First of many bird studies. I enjoy taking photos of birds when I go on walks and thought... why not also paint them?
