Song Sparrow. Taken this morning while walking Jasmine. Scroll down to see different poses. This was the cutest and most cooperative bird.
[Thanks LeapFrog! for catching my mid-identification].
We're all taking note of the excessive amount of sunshine we've been having lately but clearly robin can't get enough of it as he/she is out there every afternoon fluffing feathers and stretching out to absorb maximum Vitamin D.
Snowy Egrets (Egretta thula) in The Creek, a tidal estuary surrounded by salt marsh and fortuitously close to a road. Revisiting a sweet scene, with a bigger feather display.
Black-capped Chickadee perched on a small twig sticking out of the snow.
It was sometime in January as I headed into Algonquin to do some winter wildlife and bird photography. During this season I tend to photography the Canada Jay, Pine Martens and obviously the Chickadee as these are usually the more common species out and about in the winter. Well not to mention ravens also, While at this one location I saw this little twig sticking out of the snow, so I got low and waited for someone to land. It didn't take long and this little chickadee obliged me and posed here long enough for me to get a decent shot.

“How wonderful it would be if one could only be worthy of hearing the song of the grass. Each blade of grass sings out to God without any ulterior motive, and without expecting any reward. It’s most wonderful to hear its song, and worship God in its midst”

I don't know for sure, but I suspect this yellow-headed blackbird was collecting cattail fluff to line a nest. This photo was taken at Bear Lake National Wildlife Refuge in southeast Idaho.
Sundance has agreed to model his fluffy tail prior to his afternoon nap (which commenced seconds after this image was captured and at which time he laid his head between his paws and covered his face with his tail).

I couldn't believe my luck with kestrels in Cornwall, I know they've declined in a big way but they're certainly doing well in the south west. This male let me crawl closer and closer on the cliff tops near Godrevy lighthouse while he sat there and had a good preen. He must have just caught something with the blood on the beak and talons, I got the impression he had youngsters and was exhausted and taking a breather.
