A nice look at a rarely seen Harris’s sparrow. They are one of North America’s largest sparrows and have a very unique look to them. This one was hanging out in the same spot in Lake County for a few days. Very pretty little bird.

A beautiful cedar waxwing enjoying its juniper berry breakfast, bathed in a backdrop of striking autumn foliage. It doesn’t get much prettier. I absolutely love this time of year.

We went in November too. There wasn’t a single other person out on the beach. It’s very pretty in Provincetown.

Someone has had a VERY long day. So long, in fact, that she doesn’t realize that she’s currently awake and forgot to put her tongue back in.

Having a VERY exciting Plover Appreciation Day. Aster left Waukegan on July 31, and we have been anxiously waiting to see where they would end up wintering.
A mystery no more! Aster was located right outside of Cancun by Francisco Cab, who graciously gave us permission to use their photo!

We don’t have much time left with these little ones before they fly off to warmer lands. They’re all getting a little chunky, which means the day is coming soon. Enjoying every minute we can with them.

Did you know that hummingbirds are so light, you can make an easy perch for them with a zip tie? They absolutely love it. This one spends hours on it protecting its favorite flowers below.

Barn swallows on break. Union rules mandate 15 minutes of bird banter for every hour of flying around like a maniac.
