Chondestes grammacus - Lark Sparrow
Downy Woodpecker
He hangs out by my house everyday with his lady friend.
Sialia sialis - Eastern Bluebird He’s actually a lot brighter. The coloring just went a bit bad since I took this photo through a window, and it was cloudy outside.
A beautiful, male, Long-tailed Duck in his breeding plumage.
Spotted in Virginia. A vulnerable species, close to being endangered. They are named for their long tail, but that’s not very surprising. They breed in the Tundra, and are deep sea divers that feed on small fish and crustaceans, they truly are amazing an unique birds!
