Bird Paparazzi

Beginner bird nerd from Wisconsin. I have naught but my phone camera. I usually take pictures and videos to help me identify the birds but it is also fun to share.
This little bird was holding a worm, dancing around in the trees, and making little calls for 10+ minutes. Maybe a young Yellowthroat or a mama calling to her baby? Merlin wasn't really picking up on the calls. Any ideas?

I saw an Indigo Bunting yesterday! Took me a little while to find it but I really enjoyed watching him sing.

Kildeer doing Killdeer things. This was my Merlin bird of the day and she didn't disappoint lol. Weirdo. She has a baby with her in the nearby pond who looks like a tiny, equally anxious version of her 🪶❤️

A few pictures from my morning bird walk! 🪶
Hummingbird all puffed against the cold breeze
A Green Heron
Wilson's Warbler - song matched up on Merlin sound ID, black cap clearer through my binoculars.
Oriel next to a nest, leaves in front of face. Yay leaves 😑

Hey guys, did you know swallows are really fast? There were probably 20-30 swallows of a few different species zoomin along the Black Earth Creek.
Did my best with my phone camera but really just enjoyed sitting and watching them go by.

Common Yellowthroat doing his thing. I really like how he throws his head back to sing his little song.

Unidentified water bird in Wisconsin. Merlin app identified the call as a Virginia Rail but the beak looks different. Any ideas?
*I post another video with a call if that would help*

Hope the sound comes through. It is doing a little call.
Can anyone help me identify this bird?

What a magical morning.
Wood Ducks, Geese with their babies, a Pileated Woodpecker banging away at a tree, and two raccoons sitting in a tree (they were not k-i-s-s-i-n-g, they were sleeping).

Animals that were not excited to see me, but I was excited to see them.
Wood Duck, squirrel (Blondie variety), and a wabbit.

Made this little guy. Not perfect but it's a place to start. Design from the Animal Embroidery Workbook by Jessica Long, which I picked up from my local library. #embroidery #supportyourlibrary #slothfriend
