Brown Creeper
They start at the bottom of a tree and spiral upward as they ascend, then they hop down to the base of the next tree and begin again.
A group of creepers are collectively known as a "sneeze" of creepers.
American Robin
Handsome Male Chestnut-sided Warbler
We wanted you all to see what this beautiful warbler looks like. This is NOT my photo (though I wish it were) and comes from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology
Male Rose-breasted Grosbeak
The name "grosbeak" is from the French word grosbeak and means "large beak."
Male Scarlet Tanager
We watched as two females engaged in a twirling fight tangled together as they fell from the top of the tree all the way to the ground, about 45 feet.
Pileated Woodpecker Luncheonette
These beautiful large woodpeckers depend on mature forests with an abundance of dead or aged trees. Here, they search for carpenter ants and insect grubs by chiseling large, rectangular holes in decaying tree trunks.
Nest cavities are excavated up to 70 feet above the ground in large, decayed tree tops.
Hmmm?
