I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to view, fave or comment on my photo. It is very much appreciated.
A brightly coloured bird, the golden-browed chlorophonia is distinctive within its range. The male is bright green above and yellow below, with a wide golden-yellow eyebrow stripe and a violet-blue cap. It has a narrow blue eye ring and a thin blue line extending from its nape to its breast. The female is similar, but without the golden brown and yellow breast; these are both replaced with green. They average 13 cm (5.1 in) in length.
I'd seen this nuthatch at this nest before, but this is the first time I caught it looking up - and only then noticed the shape of the hole! Nice parallel with the bird's head!

Rose-breasted Grosbeak (Pheucticus ludovicianus), breeding adult males are striking black and white with bright red triangle on breast. Nonbreeding males, females, and immatures are streaky below with a bold head pattern. Always look for the very thick, pale pinkish bill. Fairly common and widespread in eastern North America, especially in deciduous forests.
I saw this bird along with a few other migrants on the shoreline of Lake Ontario. It came so close where I was sitting a few times that I could not focus, almost full frame.

Wikipedia: The white-breasted nuthatch (Sitta carolinensis) is a species of bird in the nuthatch family Sittidae. The breeding habitat of the white-breasted nuthatch is woodland across North America, from southern Canada to northern Florida and southern Mexico. The white-breasted nuthatch is the only North American nuthatch usually found in deciduous trees; red-breasted, pygmy and brown-headed nuthatches prefer pines.
Conservation status: Least Concern

Like this cute little nuthatch we too are preparing for take-off back to Thailand next Monday. It was great visiting family and friends this go around, but the time has gone by so quickly. I'll be off for a short while and Lord willing I will see you soon. Good health and happiness to you all and very 'happy shooting'!
Found only in a few places in North and Central Sulawesi, the only places where it can be seen.
It inhabits dense forests with very little light, and where it is not easy to find them among branches and twigs.
Tomohon - North Sulawesi - Indonesia
Very difficult to find and very localized. It was only possible to find it with the invaluable help of our guide deep in the forest.
Endemic to North and Central Sulawesi

Seen in a thicket at the Houston Arboretum. A songbird native to India and Southern Asia with local populations now around Houston and a few spots east along the Gulf Coast. Also seen in Florida and California.
The Bay-breasted Warbler (m) popped out of the cedar row a few times, but mostly stayed hidden deep in the cover. Not a resident here, we get to see them during their migration up into the boreal forests in the north.

"Sapsucker," is an appropriate descriptive name for this woodpecker. It consumes insects, arthropods, fruit and seeds, but its usual and main source of food is the sap of a tree. This is attained by drilling shallow holes in a tree called "sap wells," and using its specially adapted, brush tipped tongue, to lap up the syrup.
The Sapsucker is highly territorial of its sap tree and often nests in or near the tree. I have seen maple trees with so many Sapsucker holes in it that portions of the tree above the holes were dying because of the loss of sap. Josephine Co., OR
