Yesterday was cold but there wasn't a cloud in the sky when this Sharp-shinned Hawk showed up in a neighbor's yard. Yakima county, Washington. IMG_9980
Sharp beak, sharp talons, sharp dressed ;-)

Debated between Cooper's hawk and Sharp-shinned hawk. Had settled on Cooper's hawk but was happy to be corrected as it is a lifer for me. It was perched on a branch overlooking a large bird feeder and was not at all bothered by my presence.
Decided I would take a break from work and post this handsome Cardinal. He stayed to the thickets. Never know when a Kestrel or Sharp Shinned is going to drop in on you unexpectedly.

not sure what they see, but they are looking out over the horse pasture at school
Handle with care!
Probably worth pointing out that this is a scuba diver’s tool, *not* a weapon: its tip is squared and blunt, useful for prying; the line cutter on the bottom and the sharp edges are a lifesaving defense against entanglements.
Sharp-tailed Sandpiper
≠====================≠
Every year around April, huge flocks of waders head north to Siberia to breed. Among them Sharp-tailed Sandpipers.
A 10,000km or more trip. They stop at several places en route to refuel.
No bad for a bird that weighs in somewhere around 100gm and less than 40gm on its return.
This bird, if it is the same bird that I photographed in poor light this morning showed up a 2nd time today. The light was much better this afternoon and I was closer to the bird but the shepherds hook that holds one of my feeders was between me and the bird. IMG_6755
I have trouble keeping up and thanking everyone individually so I hope you will accept this generic "thank you." I would like to thank everyone who takes the time to view, comment and fave my photographs. It is greatly appreciated and encouraging.
I am disappointed in the price increase here at Flickr but will stick around and hope the most of the will also be here next year.
This is a record shot of a Sharpie that has been visiting My garden, and eluding My camera. In this shot I managed to capture an image through My window.

This is four different shots of the same hawk blended into one.
They are just a bit bigger than the bluejays they are hunting so the jays usually can out maneuver them. However this week there is a family of three hawks that come by every morning and it's a bit overwhelming for the jays. They screech like heck when they are on the attack but sitting still they have a soft sweet chirp. Hard to believe the difference.
Offensive...? if this offends anyone please let me know....I wasn't sure to share or not....it's nature....trying to stay on the light side...."put your left leg in....put right left leg out"...no????
Sightings of Sharp-tailed Grouse are pretty common in Custer State Park. Good photo ops are less common because they can be a little skittish and spend much of their time in tall, dense prairie grasses.
So, I was happy to find this bird in the open and quite tolerant of my presence.
Despite their tendency to non-stop motion, this little guy hung around just long enough for a profile shot. A sharp-tailed sandpiper (calidris acuminata) photographed at the edge of marshland in Kumana National Park, Sri Lanka. More at "Colin Pacitti Wildlife Photography" - www.colin-pacitti.com.
Photographed at my home in Yakima County, Washington. This bird was here at my house at least 3 times yesterday, probably more. IMG_4518

This species breeds in the boggy tundra of northeast Asia and is strongly migratory, wintering in South East Asia and Australasia. Rarely seen in Peninsular Malaysia, usually stop for a few days to refuel before continuing journey to Down Under. Consider vagrant in Peninsular Malaysia.
