the unique Swan Goose (which is well named, i think) offered close-up views in dreary weather back in June. i remember this being the first time i felt really excited about my photos. that green compliments them so well!

lifer Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay from October. fun fact, this is the roof of a campsite bathroom 😅 very photogenic! this also happened just after a failed sunrise watch (full cloud cover). he cured the disappointment, but i still wish i saw the pink mountains.

one of my most memorable life-list additions came in the form of this american three-toed woodpecker. on a 6 mile hike, i heard a woodpecker many times and only saw one on the way back. it stayed just feet from me for a while, once even too close for the telephoto to focus. just amazing.

the most i've ever worked in a 2-week period is 31 hours (i am a full time highschool student), so try 45 hours in 2 weeks with thanksgiving and only 1 day off from schoolwork? doing my best to keep a streak of going outside but wow, tough. i have 16 hours left this week. also, moon.

this is the darkest house finch i've ever seen. i expected it to be a song or a lincoln's sparrow but no, the classic house finch sound and everything. maybe i'm used to seeing them in super bright lighting or it's the food they eat around there ❓️ #birds

I went birding with my friends who are not birders in the slightest and we had an incredible close encounter with a young red-tailed hawk. i think it made them realize why i do it and i got this photo out of it as a memory :)

i'll take a break from the ducks for one day, here's a juvenile Grackle from July. the yard is much quieter without them here for the winter, but i think i miss the rusty swingset noises. look at his cool patchwork jacket (molt)!
