BASIC DESCRIPTION
As energetic as their electric zapping call notes would suggest, Common Redpolls are active foragers that travel in busy flocks. Look for them feeding on catkins in birch trees or visiting feeders in winter. These small finches of the arctic tundra and boreal forest migrate erratically, and they occasionally show up in large numbers as far south as the central U.S. During such irruption years, redpolls often congregate at bird feeders (particularly thistle or nyjer seed), allowing delightfully close looks.(allaboutbirds.org)

In my prior visits to the New York Botanical Garden, these common whitetails were reluctant to perch and when they did, they would fly away at the nearest movement. On Saturday, they perched quite often and stood their ground longer. They didn't always stop on good spots for photos, but this one perched on a good spot for me.

Can we say ZOMG?!?! I'm upstate New York at my Mother's house for Christmas...the morning after, on December 26th, I wake up and walk sleepily to the kitchen to fetch a cup of coffee. As I plop myself into a seat near the bay window facing the backyard, guess what I see?
That's right! ZOMG! A wild turkey! I'm grateful that my body allowed me to crawl and get this shot without disturbing the Turkey's foraging.
I don't care how common they are, I was still amazed! It was my first time ever seeing one in person!

Orcas Island
While hiking on the island, Tom made a move to sit down to rest on a boulder. He was surprised by a sudden hissing sound, and turned to see this common nighthawk mother playing the "broken wing" card to try to distract us from her precious cache of 2 eggs. Would have loved to have stayed and worked on a finer portrait, but we really did not want to distress the poor dear any more than we already had.
The Common Sergeant (Athyma perius) lives in South and South-east Asia.
It has a wingspan of 6-7cm (2.5-3 inches) and feeds on the nectar of flowers.
This Common Yellowthroat was captured on 21 December 2011 at Collier-Seminole State Park, Near Naples, FL with EOS 7D and EF500mm f/4L IS USM.
Three days to get one of these guys out of the undergrowth!!!! Still hoping to get one out of a bush!

Here is a Common Buckeye (Junonia coenia) butterfly in the woods today. They can sit quietly for a long time with their wings closed, looking quite plain, and then open their wings in a quick flash! This is the first one I've managed to photograph this year. (San Marcos Pass, 6 June 2022)
Nighthawks are well camouflaged when they perch lengthwise on a limb. This fellow thought a powerline was adequate. Driving by, I just barely noticed him!
