Unique tiny woodpecker with olive-yellow wings, brown-and-white striped head, and black-spotted white breast and belly. Other piculets in range look very different, being mostly unmarked. Call is an extremely high “tsik tsik tsik.” Drums very loudly for such a diminutive bird. Widespread, found in lowland and foothill forests, often in areas with bamboo stands.

This was a robin that I captured on a rainy December afternoon. I tempted it into shot by putting some extra bird seed on the fence and fence post. Using the 300mm lens allowed me to get a really nice depth of field effect.

Sometimes being alone in the whole wide world is scary. But being alone with your own self, gives you a chance to introspect. Sometimes being alone is a blessing in disguise.

...it's great how agile and manoeuvrable the greenshanks chase after small fish.

Cooper's Hawk

Tiny, active, warbler-like bird of tropical and subtropical forest edge, woodland, and gardens. Feeds on nectar and fruit, and in some areas visits bird feeders. Variable plumage across range, especially in the Caribbean, but always note small size and sharp, slightly decurved bill. Most populations have a bold white eyebrow and yellow underparts. Throat color varies from pale gray on mainland (Mexico to South America) to white on some island populations (including Cozumel) or sooty gray (Greater Antilles). Some birds in the Lesser Antilles are entirely black. Song is variable across range but usually high-pitched and scratchy.

Juvenile herring gulls typically have mottled brown and gray plumage with dark eyes, and they lack the distinctive white and gray coloring of adult herring gulls. They are often seen near coastal areas, scavenging for food and learning to fend for themselves. As they mature, their plumage gradually changes, and they acquire the characteristic white and gray feathers of adult herring gulls. Juvenile herring gulls may be seen accompanied by adult birds, learning important behaviors and skills for survival.

Posiblemente el depredador más temido del marjal. Cuando alza el vuelo para cazar las posibles presas se esconden o permanecen en alerta. Cuando lanza un ataque suele ser infalible.

Possiblement el depredador més temut de la marjal. Quan alça el vol per a caçar les possibles preses s'amaguen o romanen en alerta. Quan llança un atac sol ser infal·lible.

Possibly the most feared predator in the marsh. When it takes flight to hunt the possible prey they hide or remain on alert. When he launches an attack he is usually infallible.
