Nesting Coot next to a weir by the Grand Union Canal. An old shot found on a very old hard drive, which still works. All buy good tech!
From what I could tell, this Yellow Warbler was ripping apart an old nest for nesting material rather than building a new one right there.

Calls for residencies will open soon.
My wife is "nesting". She's got me cleaning up the utility closet. This means vetting materials on top of the hot water heater (shown here) to decide what goes where, what can be thrown out, etc.
Babies give you a whole new perspective on things... even before they make their appearance:)
Thanks to the banding on its left foot (it says "H4"), we know this bird's name is Zoom. It's a female, one of a pair nesting at the Uptown Theater in Chicago. She hatched in St. Paul, MN in 1997 at a location called North Central Life and has been nesting at the Uptown Theater since 2001.
Male Bald Eagle at Klamath Falls, OR
Another behavioral marvel which we only witnessed once in the trip. Because their nests are so roomy they need larger twigs to build them. They loosen the base of the twigs with their beaks and then rip them right off with their talons. One might think this is too big, but for a bird that carries deer cubs this is a piece of cake.
This couple is a resident of Klamath Falls and had their nest built three years ago. This was probably just some patch work in order to get ready for the breeding season. 2min to break the branch and 30min to meticulously arrange it in the nest.

I attended some Flyway Week activities today, which also happened to be International Migratory Bird Day, at the Tijuana Estuary Visitor Center and The Chula Vista Nature Center. There were some great presentations, nice interaction and lots of birds.

Nesting box with birds nest on top. I took this photo in Gallejaur, a small village in Lapland, in March. In a few months there will be birds here again.
I do not normally photograph nesting birds for two reasons.
1.The risk of disturbance and therefore abandonment
2.The risk of disclosure to others.
However, while walking along the River Exe, I came across this Dipper’s nest, in a very public place and spent two fabulous hours watching, from a considerable distance, these birds. The weir was visited by a number of people during which the Dippers did not visit the nest. However, most people only spent a few minutes in the vicinity of the nest and the Dippers resumed feeding as soon as they had gone.
The new hide at Rutland Water presented some great views of the male Osprey fishing and also these nesting Great Crested Grebes close to the hide, evening light wasn't bad either.

Pelicans sit in their nesting area as oil from the Deepwater Horizon wellhead moves into the area in Barataria Bay, Louisiana just off the Gulf of Mexico June 6, 2010. The BP leased Deepwater Horizon oil platform exploded April 20 and sank after burning, leaking record amounts of crude oil from the broken pipeline into the sea. Eleven workers are missing, presumed dead. Photo © Jose-Luis Magana/Greenpeace

The Bolsa Chica Reserve has five or six nesting pairs of Great Blue Herons right now. This nest looks pretty substantial, but the one in this spot last year, looked as if it wouldn't hold the mother, let alone the mother and two fledglings.
