Rust-Colored Songbird

"This is a brown thrasher (Toxostoma rufum) perched gracefully on a tree limb. Its vivid yellow eyes stand out, adding an intensity to its watchful expression, while its rich reddish-brown plumage and streaked underparts highlight its striking appearance. Truly a captivating glimpse of this fascinating songbird!

Yellow-Tipped Wonders

I photographed these cedar waxwings (Bombycilla cedrorum) about 15 minutes ago. They visit this same tree every year—well, maybe not these exact birds, but you get the idea. The tree is located to the west, and they tend to perch high up, making raw photographs appear as silhouettes. To reveal the vibrant colors of the birds, I usually lighten the images a bit.

Crested Majesty on a Woodland Branch

When I took this photograph, two pileated woodpeckers (Dryocopus pileatus)—a male and a female—were at the edge of the forest. This image features the male. Nearby, a hawk circled in the air. As I observed the woodpeckers, they seemed relatively unconcerned with the presence of the hawk, continuing their foraging undisturbed. However, in this photo, the male woodpecker appears to glance skyward, perhaps keeping an eye on the hawk.
