Today I was just looking over some of my old shots and came across this one. I punched up some of the colors to make it look a little nicer. I hope you enjoy it. This was taken in one of the stands on 5th avenue in New York City.
The ring necked parakeet is common in South East of England. Breeding starts late January. Typical nesting places are tree holes abandoned by woodpeckers.

Rip Rap Islands serve as crucial nesting ground for seabirds near the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel in coastal Virginia. Currently, species that rely on the island include the royal tern, common tern, gull-billed tern, sandwich tern, herring gull, laughing gull, great black-backed gull, black skimmer, and snowy egret.
For decades before the expansion of the HRBT, two artificial islands anchored the underwater tunnels and housed the large colony of seabirds. The construction made these islands unsuitable nesting grounds.
In February 2020, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam tasked the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources with relocating the colony. A quick yet massive renovation of Fort Wool, a Civil War-era military installment built in 1819, transformed Rip Rap Islands into a landscape for the seabird colony similar to the barrier islands. Along with Fort Wool, DWR leased three flat-top barges to create additional habitat next to Rip Rap Islands for the birds to nest. July 15, 2021 (Photo by Aileen Devlin | Virginia Sea Grant)
DSC_3925: Nesting Osprey on July 3rd, 2014 at Grand Lake, New Brunswick. I spent about 30 minutes taking pics and videos of this very cooperative subject on her nest today. She wasn't afraid of me at all, and just sat on top of her nest brooding over her young one.

Seen in my garden this morning. Watched as he took this material to the nesting box that is on our back wall. Glad to see it being used.
Seems with the sunshine, the sparrows and blackbirds and now thew blue tits have been seen carrying nesting material.
Sorry if I'm boring everyone with all the wren pics - but while they're so close I'm making the most of the opportunity!

We took the Loon nesting area signs down yesterday. It's been another successful year, one chick born and it's doing well.
When you're a novice chicken owner like me and you have questions about your hens, you go online to research. When you do so, you come across any number of beautiful, Pinterest worthy blogs devoted entirely to hobby chicken ownership, coop and run care, and keeping your flock as happy and kodak-moment ready as a group of six-year-olds at a birthday party.
These blogs have all of the correct answers, and you will feel like a neglectful and selfish bird owner stuck in the dark ages of animal husbandry. You will also wonder how these people keep their yards so beautifully manicured whilst their flock of 20 heirloom heritage breeds free-range their way through the garden.
This is really amazing - there are 5 to 10 trees each with multiple nests. Seems like there was full occupancy, but I couldn't really tell.
I was delighted to catch a photo of this nesting swan at the local pond today - they usually do not nest this close to the shore path. Soon there will be families with their cygnets paddling around. Another sure sign of spring here...
