Love waxwings. Cedar Waxwing is our usual here in Washington State, but every winter we search for a Bohemian. Sometimes huge flocks of >1000 birds gather in eastern WA. Nice photo. Cedar Waxwing Bombycilla

I also love the nightjar family of birds. Nice post. Thanks.

Beautiful photos. Thanks. Keep up the great work. I've followed you from the old Steem days and enjoy your posts.

These are beautiful birds and photos. Thanks for your work.

I found a Northern Shrike on a recent country drive this week.

Our Green-winged teal are a different subspecies. We look for this much less common subspecies. Not the vertical rather than horizontal white marking on our North American subspecies.

Sounds fun. Enjoy Hive.

Great Kiskadees indeed are a loud part of not just the dawn chorus, but all day long.

My entry to "show me a bum"

What a beautiful woodpecker. Nice shot and story.

Nice photos, thanks. I'd love to bird in the Phillipines someday.

Maybe burnt orange? Hope all is well for you. Congratulations on your success on Hive.Good birding!

Strut and gobble.

This is a male and a female Gosander, or in the Americas Common Merganser.

My entry. Thanks.

Enjoy your annual visit. I enjoyed reading about the area's birds.

We had a Eurasian Hobby show up in the far northwest corner of the Olympic Peninsula of Washington, U.S several years ago where it stayed long enough for hundreds of U.S. birders to visit. A cool bird.

These Old World warblers are just incredibly difficult to identify. Thanks for the posts.

Here is one of my favorite birds with prey photos. A Common Loon with a crawfish.
