Yard birds in winter.
Any camera geeks out there want to offer some advice? The shutter button on my Sony a6700 is "clunky". It's been in for repairs and came back sort of ok.
First choice: buy a new camera and don't fuss with repaired electronics. It's still under warranty, but...is it worth it to send it back in?
I wear out shutter buttons every three years on Sony equipment. The shutter button on the a6700 went out after the first year (122,371 clicks)
Yes, I am staying with the a6700 because I like the crop sensor and yes, I am staying with Sony as I really like the 200-600 lens.
This Red Bellied Woodpecker loves to visit the peanut tray in the morning searching specifically for unshelled peanuts.

I started two of these plants from seeds many years ago...
This year I have 5 leaves on each plant...
The ground was frozen and his bill was like a little jackhammer. I spent over an hour with him, watching him score food like a boss!
This plover is showing its distinctive black "armpits" which clinches the i. d. for Black-bellied Plover.

Pale-bellied Hermit (Phaethornis anthophilus) was photographed mid-flight above a shaded creek in the coastal rainforest of Capurganá, Chocó, Colombia. I framed the bird against the blurred green understory to isolate its slender form and extended tail streamers. Shooting in shutter-priority mode at 1/1500 sec allowed me to freeze the subtle wing posture, while the slight motion blur of surrounding leaves still conveys the gentle swirl of air currents near the water’s edge.
Using an 800 mm f/11 lens set to f/16 gave me the depth of field needed to keep the entire hermit sharply in focus, and dialing ISO 3200 preserved detail under the canopy’s low light without overwhelming noise. A stable handheld stance and careful timing were essential to capture the moment his ghost-white throat caught a stray shaft of light. This approach balances sharp subject rendition with a creamy background—an effect I often pursue when documenting fast, diminutive birds in confined forest environments.

Continuing with my series alternating between smaller and larger occupants of the same habitat. Like my last two posts, here's another species that prefers a high-altitude environment.
This young Yellow-bellied Marmot was found at around 12,000 ft. (3,657 m) in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
I don't like the white blob (rock) in front of this guy/gal, but I like the rest of the image and decided to post it with the white blob.
After several images from a desert ecosystem, I'm moving to a high altitude/mountain ecosystem for my next few posts.
Kicking off the series with this young Yellow-bellied Marmot perched on a rock at around 12,000 ft. (3,657 m) in Rocky Mountain National Park.
A red-bellied woodpecker searches this dead wood for insects. He really has a tight latch on the tree.
A Red-bellied Woodpecker can stick out its tongue nearly 2 inches past the end of its beak. The tip is barbed and the bird’s spit is sticky, making it easier to snatch prey from deep crevices. Males have longer, wider-tipped tongues than females, possibly allowing a breeding pair to forage in slightly different places on their territory and maximize their use of available food.
"Olive-Bellied Sunbird"... Captured at last, after many attempts earlier, lot of chasing around and fleeting glimpses, and not enough lighting affording stable focused and clear shots... made very difficult as it is a very small, restless and a hyper sunbird. Seen here is an adult male which has a metallic green head, back and throat, with brown wings, a metallic blue rump and a black tail with a purplish-blue sheen. It has a narrow blue breast band above a wider scarlet breast patch, lemon-yellow pectoral tufts (hidden under the wings) and an olive belly. Mostly feeds on flower nectar (last photo). To sum up, a VERY BEAUTIFUL Sunbird !!!
The Sulfur-Bellied Flycatcher is a very rare visitor to Atlantic Canada. This is a bird that can be found during the Northern Hemisphere winter in the foothills of the Andes Mountains in South America. Seeing this rarity close to Home in Atlantic Canada was an opportunity I could not miss

The Yellow-bellied Sapsucker is a very enterprising woodpecker.
It makes two kinds of holes in trees to harvest sap.
Round holes extend deep in the tree and are not enlarged. Rectangular holes are shallower, and must be maintained continually for the sap to flow. New holes are made in a line with old holes. It’s always easy to identify their trees! Photographed on Hilton Head Island, SC, USA
