Cooper’s Hawk diving from its perch. Wish I could’ve gotten its whole head in the last one!

Some shots of a few Band-tailed Pigeons from the Skagit Wildlife Area!
I had never seen these before, they looked like footballs in the trees from far away. #birds #exploring #birding #nature #photography

I swear I saw one of these Purple Martin toss the tree swallow that is sitting on the railing right out of that nest box. I thought it maybe was testing its young at first, but I am fairly confident in my IDs on the two. 🪶
Please correct me if I’m wrong, it was interesting to see regardless.

Brown Creeper! This was my first time getting these little guys on camera (I have heard them several times). I have never seen a bird that moves like this. Also from Seward Park in Seattle.
