The adult male Dickcissel boasts a striking colour pattern that sets it apart from other birds. Imagine a hybrid between a House Sparrow and a Western Meadowlark, and you’ll get something like a Dickcissel. From behind, it resembles a sparrow, but look for its rusty shoulder patch, long white supercilium (eyebrow), and a hint of yellow on its face. From the front, its bright yellow breast and black chevron suggest a meadowlark, yet the more sparrow-like proportions contradict this. The Dickcissel is a taxonomic puzzle, not quite fitting with North American blackbirds or sparrows, and is currently grouped with cardinals and their colourful relatives.

Eastern Kingbirds (Tyrannus tyrannus) are often seen perched jauntily on a treetop or fence wire, or sallying out with shallow fluttering wingbeats to catch an insect in mid-air. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
Funny how everything else around the door has collapsed and yet it still stands firm, just to the left of it in what was a coat cupboard, there are still hangers hanging on a rail as well.

One of the only mammals, other than humans, that can manufacture its own environment, the beaver is known for building dams, canals and lodges. Its colonies are created by one or more beaver-built dams, which provide still and deep water for protection against predators. An emblem of Canada older than the maple leaf, the beaver has had a greater impact on Canadian history and exploration than any other animal or plant species.

It is OK to break the rules sometimes of having the midline in the middle ;)
