One of the most common and widespread sparrows in North America. Fairly large with a long, rounded tail. Overall coarsely patterned with gray and brown, usually with more reddish-brown wings and tail. Look especially for thick brown streaks on the underparts and a broad dark mustache stripe. Significant variation in plumage geographically: relatively pale and rusty in the southwestern U.S.; blacker streaking in California; overall dusky in the Pacific Northwest. Larger, longer-tailed and usually more rusty than Savannah Sparrow. Found in a variety of scrubby habitats both near and far from human development, especially edges of fields, often near water. Listen for husky "chimp" calls and melodic song with chips and trills. (eBird)

I was convinced that this juvenile Song Sparrow was actually a Lincoln's Sparrow because of the buffy cheeks and fine streaking. However, I was proven wrong by local experts (again). Juvenile sparrows are so hard to ID. Doesn't matter - I love Song Sparrows and am happy to see another one has survived to brighten my day.

This charming large spider is also called the black-and-yellow garden spider, or simply the yellow garden spider. No matter the name, they are very neat to see when sitting in the center of their orb-shaped web. Grasshoppers are their main prey out on Ludwig prairie.

This black kite landed on the Dracaena bush in my garden on a fine morning. Don't know whether it is an injured bird or a juvenile.

Kingfisher - Alcedo Atthis
The common kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) also known as the Eurasian kingfisher, and river kingfisher, is a small kingfisher with seven subspecies recognized within its wide distribution across Eurasia and North Africa. It is resident in much of its range, but migrates from areas where rivers freeze in winter.
This sparrow-sized bird has the typical short-tailed, large-headed kingfisher profile; it has blue upperparts, orange underparts and a long bill. It feeds mainly on fish, caught by diving, and has special visual adaptations to enable it to see prey under water. The glossy white eggs are laid in a nest at the end of a burrow in a riverbank.
The female is identical in appearance to the male except that her lower mandible is orange-red with a black tip. The juvenile is similar to the adult, but with duller and greener upperparts and paler underparts. Its bill is black, and the legs are also initially black. Feathers are moulted gradually between July and November with the main flight feathers taking 90–100 days to moult and regrow. Some that moult late may suspend their moult during cold winter weather.
The flight of the kingfisher is fast, direct and usually low over water. The short rounded wings whirr rapidly, and a bird flying away shows an electric-blue "flash" down its back.
The common kingfisher is widely distributed over Europe, Asia, and North Africa, mainly south of 60°N. It is a common breeding species over much of its vast Eurasian range, but in North Africa it is mainly a winter visitor, although it is a scarce breeding resident in coastal Morocco and Tunisia. In temperate regions, this kingfisher inhabits clear, slow-flowing streams and rivers, and lakes with well-vegetated banks. It frequents scrubs and bushes with overhanging branches close to shallow open water in which it hunts. In winter it is more coastal, often feeding in estuaries or harbours and along rocky seashores. Tropical populations are found by slow-flowing rivers, in mangrove creeks and in swamps.
Like all kingfishers, the common kingfisher is highly territorial; since it must eat around 60% of its body weight each day, it is essential to have control of a suitable stretch of river. It is solitary for most of the year, roosting alone in heavy cover. If another kingfisher enters its territory, both birds display from perches, and fights may occur, in which a bird will grab the other's beak and try to hold it under water. Pairs form in the autumn but each bird retains a separate territory, generally at least 1 km (0.62 mi) long, but up to 3.5 km (2.2 mi) and territories are not merged until the spring.
Very few birds live longer than one breeding season. The oldest bird on record was 21 years.
They are also listed as a Schedule 1 species under the Wildlife and Countryside Act offering them additional protection.

UK breeding:
3,800-6,400 pairs

Large, brownish woodpecker with black barring on the back and black spots on the belly. Easily recognized in flight by its bright white rump. Also note large black crescent-shaped mark on breast. Wings and tail flash yellow or red, depending on the subspecies. Generally "Yellow-shafted" is found in eastern and northern North America, and "Red-shafted" is found in western North America as far south as Oaxaca. Birds from Chiapas to Nicaragua are larger with entirely brown crown, sometimes considered a separate species. Typically singly or in pairs, but can gather in large loose groups during migration and winter. Often seen feeding on the ground in open areas, foraging for ants and worms. Vocal and conspicuous: listen for loud “kleer!” call and series of laughing notes. (eBird)
------------
You can just see the reddish shafts to its tail feathers below the branch.

What is it? It's the No Chance Saloon. It's Bedrock Bar, The End of the Line Cafe, The Bottom of the Sea Rathskeller! Don't you notice the beautiful calm in the atmosphere? That's because it's the last harbor. No one here has to worry about where they're going next, because there is no farther they can go. It's a great comfort to them. Although even here they keep up the appearances of life with a few harmless pipe dreams about their yesterdays and tomorrows, as you'll see for yourself if you're here long.

This colorful and shining composition is one of the preferred flower and gem captures of Taty and it looks apropriate to wish you a Sunny and Happy Saturday with it from both of us.
No Post Processing used - no treatments, and as is from the camera.
The only thing added is the water mark - signature.
Other photos dedicated to friends of Taty will follow at random, and without knowing any of you, so please don't be upset about the order I am placing your photo online, and be patient until you'll see yours, Thank you - Wishing you all a very Happy weekend
And if you wish to see her on a few photos - see my stream. - Willem
We went to see the Bar-Headed Geese and instead a whole range of species in the dry fishery bed. Seen in the background are a large flock of Bar-Headed Geese.
Thanks in advance for your views and feedback.
Saw this two weeks ago while on a hunt for butterflies...A friend of mine ID'd it for me. I had hoped to get back to see it fully in bloom, but so far that hasn't happened...it looks like an alien:).

Rosas amarillas de Santa Gemita - 050722 - Enhanced-9
Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos platyrhynchos) - 20230511-01
A large duck, generally common and familiar within its extensive range. Males are distinctive with iridescent green head, yellow bill, chestnut breast, and gray body. Females are mottled brown with orange and black splotches on the bill. Found anywhere with water, including city parks, backyard creeks, and various wetland habitats. Often in flocks, and frequently mixes with other duck species. In North America, females can be tricky to distinguish from American Black Duck, Mottled Duck, and Mexican Duck where ranges overlap. Those species are all darker-bodied than Mallard. A good view of the wing can be helpful, too: white wingbars on the leading and trailing edges of the blue wing patch are bolder on Mallard. Frequently hybridizes with those species, which can be even more confusing. Any bird with extensive white in the tail or curled feathers above the tail has some Mallard genes. (eBird)
--------------
I had the distinct feeling that I was being watched, even though I could not see another soul along the wide open trail, except for my husband. Scanning the reeds and shrubs for a bear or other mammal, I finally locked eyes with this well-hidden mallard. He never moved - just watched us with a rather unnerving intensity :-)
Trans-Canada Trail, Stittlsville, Ontario, Canada. May 2023.
Large, brownish woodpecker with black barring on the back and black spots on the belly. Easily recognized in flight by its bright white rump. Also note large black crescent-shaped mark on breast. Wings and tail flash yellow or red, depending on the subspecies. Generally "Yellow-shafted" is found in eastern and northern North America, and "Red-shafted" is found in western North America as far south as Oaxaca. Birds from Chiapas to Nicaragua are larger with entirely brown crown, sometimes considered a separate species. Typically singly or in pairs, but can gather in large loose groups during migration and winter. Often seen feeding on the ground in open areas, foraging for ants and worms. Vocal and conspicuous: listen for loud “kleer!” call and series of laughing notes. (eBird)
-----------
The male Flicker (ID'd by the reddish moustache) came to the nest hole to check on his mate. You can just see the red shaft of one of his tail feathers in this image. It turns out that this is a hybrid between the Red-shafted (C.a.cafer) and Yellow-shafted (C.a.luteus), as evidenced by the red chevron on his nape. Hybridization is well known and researched in Northern Flickers.
Bromley Rock Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada. June 2022.
Eagle-Eye Tours - Ultimate British Columbia.
Spent a few early hours trying to get some shots of these guys. But even at relatively high focal lenghts, it was difficult to get close enough. The fact that the location is essentially a large open field (and they see you coming a long way off) doesn't help either :)
But as that usually goes, patience eventually paid off and this one came to pose on a fence post within acceptable distance.
Please, no invitations to award/forced comment groups or to those with large/animated comment codes.
Striking large black-and-white wader with a thin, straight bill and bright pink legs, found in wetlands with open shallow water throughout much of Africa and Eurasia, often in brackish habitats. Some populations are migratory, departing northerly breeding grounds for warmer southern regions. Often forms noisy colonies on bare ground near water. Essentially unmistakable throughout much of its range, but compare with Pied Stilt in parts of Southeast Asia. Feeds by wading in water, picking from the water surface with its needle-like bill. In flight, long pink legs stick out far beyond the tail. Calls loudly and stridently, especially when alarmed during the breeding season. (eBird)
----------------
We were looking for Chestnut-eared Buntings (which we did see, very poorly) when we came across this pond. The stilts were gathering for the night and swirled across the water, rather like an aerial ballet. The calmness of the water and the dusk lighting was just so peaceful.
