All about our feathered friends, as well as some of the individual wild birds that I have known for over a decade. I hope to get people more interested in birds realizing just how incredible they are. It's a rewarding experience that connects you with nature!

Sweet Blue likes to decorate his face with tamarack needles, while his mate Chloe prefers to floof out her belly feathers, making it look as though she is wearing a dress. Both are cute, but I think Chloe looks ready for a ball. 😅 Did you know Blue Jays fluff up their feathers not only to trap warm air, but also when they’re feeling relaxed or comfortable?
In this picture, Chloe is all fluffed up ---her way of showing she feels safe around me… and also her way of saying, ‘Yes, I’d love a peanut or almond, please.’ 💙🐦 Which, of course, I’m more than happy to oblige.

Ada's got the look!! There's a strength in this little Black-capped chickadee that I can't quite explain. She's barely 10 grams, but the way she perches, the way she holds her ground, you'd swear she carries the whole forest in her chest. I love her. Check out her story here https://youtu.be/oDQ-DvmrMAg

Set ablaze by Autumn's magic Wand, the leaves burn with a fiery red.🍁 Wrapped in their warm glow, a shining timeless witness, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, in its own changing phase. 🌓 Two ancient cycles etched in a rich blue tapestry, one on Earth and one in the Heavens.🌎🌕 One momentary thread connecting our home to the cosmos.⭐️
Birds are my greatest companions, but they’re only one part of the story. I see patterns, cycles, and beauty in every corner of nature. This moment felt worth sharing, even though it isn’t about birds, it’s about the wonder that surrounds them. 💙

AI's got nothing on this Boreal Chickadee I named, Speckle. Just look at those big, bright eyes, the cozy, earthy tones, and the splash of white on his forehead and near his eye (the markings that inspired his name. Such a tiny gem, and I feel so lucky to photograph him...well, when he sits still long enough 😅🐦

It may not have hit a grand slam like Addison Barger on Friday night, but this video still made it onto the field…and I’m so grateful for everyone who’s shown it some love. 💙 Your thoughtful words and encouragement mean more to me than you know. If you haven’t seen it yet, I’d love for you to check it out. It's one that I put the most amount of research and time into compared to any other video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MWoR...
The Blue Jay in the picture is Eden 💙🐦
