At Last!
I've been waiting for years to catch a Pileated Woodpecker. One stopped by and In was so excited that I forgot to zoom in. He left, then he came back!
 |
| He flew to the dark side of the tree and then hopped around to the sunny side. |
 |
| he wasn't pecking as much as scratching and picking. |
 |
| When he came back, he went to the ground and was picking through the leaves and working the rotten wood in the marsh. |

April Break: "I Take Better Pictures Outside Than In" Edition
Today we had tickets to the Frank Stella exhibition at The Aldrich Museum in Ridgefield, CT. If you haven't gone yet, you must. I took a whole bunch of pictures inside for which zero came out. I missed a setting or something. I'll figure it out.
I did get some quick and reasonable shots outside when we returned. Clearly I'm an outside kind of guy.
 |
| I believe that this is a Common Grackle. |
 |
| This is what he does when he doesn't want to continue sitting for a photo session. |
 |
| And here he is with his neighborhood watch group. |
 |
| Another neighbor back for the season. A female Downy Woodpecker. |
 |
| This lovely couple of Northern Flickers have been surveying different properties in the neighborhood. They seem to have settled on this tree. They may just be here for take-out though. |
 |
| This little Tufted Titmouse was jumping and flitting his way all over the place. |

April Break 2021 Edition
Here at Chez Yardisabi we enjoy the arrival of spring and in 2021 we are enjoying it a lot! We can go outside for extended periods of time without full winter gear. We can breathe the fresh air unfiltered. Oh, and the birds come back.
 |
| Eastern Phoebe. There are more shots below. |
