Most warblers leave the continental U.S. for winter, but the Pine Warbler stays in the Southeast and is one of the first to return northward in spring. It arrives as early as February in areas just north of the wintering range and may begin breeding by late April. Our beautiful world, pass it on.

It's always nice to find your target bird. Since it was a calm day, I figured I would likely be able to hear the Pine Grosbeaks on Paradise Ridge calling, even if I didn't see one.
Fortunately, I did hear distant calling and this guy responded to my playback by flying right up to me. He settled down just above eye level only 10-20 feet away from me to munch on some berries, and seemed completely at ease with me. Perhaps he considered me to be another odd-looking grosbeak, since I sounded like one.
The Pine Grosbeak breeds in coniferous forests. It winters in coniferous, deciduous, mixed forests and other areas where it can find food.

Pine siskins, scientific name Spinus pinus, is a member of the finch (Fringillidae) family. They are small with petite features similar to many finches, such as the common redpoll but without striking coloring.
They have very muted shades of brown and white with just a dash of yellow on their wing bars. Their short, sharp beak is used for cracking open seeds of shells, thistle, or sunflower seeds, and they are often seen hanging around bird feeders, especially in the winter months.

Algonquin Pine Marten. I couldn't believe we saw 6 last Sunday...but unfortunately one of those had been hit by a pickup truck that had passed us a moment earlier (going a ridiculous speed). He was still moving when we got to him but it was over minutes later.
I've just got back from spending a week up in the Scottish Highlands. My main aim was to photograph Pine Marten.
Compared to last year they were quite skittish and were a struggle getting photos in daylight, so I relied heavily on my camera trap setup. This allowed me to get a different portfolio of images as I was not disturbing their behaviour. It was a little disconcerting leaving my camera kit outside each night but it was such a remote area I needn't have worried.
This image was on the second night of leaving it out (I'd left a trail camera out the night before to see if they were using this log to cross the river). I've seen plenty of nocturnal photos of Pine Marten before but not one near a water source, like this river running underneath.
As always feedback is welcome.
This little one provided a nice pose in afternoon light. Photographed in the backyard area.

After spending an hour or so at the local metro park looking for a Pine Siskin (and fighting off the hoards of midges that sprung up overnight) I came home to find 1/2 dozen or so feeding in my own backyard. I should have listened to the advice of a local photographer who told me "it's always easier to let the birds come to you."

For Looking Close…on Friday theme of needles, here are pine needles 💉🌲
We had a storm recently that blew down some tree branches from our pine trees. No damage, just needles and branches scattered around to be picked up.🌲
Pine Siskin perched on a reed. Note how yellow the wing and tail patches are. Not as obvious on all birds especially in fall. Home pond, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. 20 September 2020.

Interesting little warblers. Unique to pine forests and stay high in the tops most of the time. My neck aches after a session with these birds. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
