Feathers on Friday

I unfortunately have not post many of these lately. Here is a simple photo of  a chickadee from a few weeks ago.

Very sorry for my utter inactivity, I've been quite busy with school.

Here's a few quick photos of a Yellow-rumped Warbler.

These Sandhill Cranes gave us excellent photo opportunities on our Birdathon.

Here is another small preview of the Birdathon.

I've finally gotten to sign up for the birdathon! Yeah, I'm a bit late. I'm going to do the birdathon on the 31st. My page is here, so if you want to donate it's much appreciated!

Anyway, here's a photo for feathers on Friday. I have seen multiple Common Nighthawks flying over the past few days, and one landed in a tree!

Thanks to prairiebirder for the FoF idea.

Sorry, this is actually on saturday, was busy yesterday and didn't get to post.

There is an abundance of Chipping, Clay-coloured and White-throated Sparrows, but not too much of other sparrows. I saw one Lincoln's sparrow a few days ago.

Spring migration has been slow the past few days, but we've seen kinglets and quite a few other birds.

Sorry for not posting for so long, I've been a bit busy. I just realized how long it's been since I've done a Feathers on Friday post.
Yesterday migration finally came in earnest. Golden and Ruby-crowned Kinglets, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Brown Creeper, Song Sparrows, Flickers, Cooper's Hawk. The weather is finally warming up.

But here is a photo from a while ago, a Pine Grosbeak at the feeder.

Here is my Feathers on Friday post. I have a whole bunch of beautiful sparrow photos I haven't posted, so I thought I should post some sometime. Here is one of them. A Harris' Sparrow.

I will try to get the Oak Hammock Marsh post with the Short-eared Owls together, so it can auto post when we have gone to Florida.

Here is my (William) Feathers on Friday post.

It has been extremely warm lately! It has been 4°C (39.2°F for you Americans) and all the snow is melting!!! I have gone out biking once  (and saw a year bird, Sharp-tailed Grouse) and plan to go again in the future.

The Great-horned Owl has been hanging around a lot, I managed to get some pretty good pictures of him.

Here is my Feathers on Friday post, sorry for missing a few weeks.
The Great-horned Owl has been around quite a bit recently, as well as some Pine Grosbeaks! We haven't had pine Grosbeaks for years, so it's really nice to have them again.

It is definitely sparrow migration! There are always lots of sparrows at our feeders. It is also definitely fall. We had our first frost the other day. I really love autumn, but I say that about all of the seasons.

Harris's Sparrows are one of my favorite sparrows, especially in fall plumage. Here is a Harris' Sparrow beneath our feeder.

Here is this weeks photo.

In the flocks of shorebirds we saw at Whitewater lake, there were Least Sandpipers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, Baird's Sandpipers, and many others. You might find a few of those species in this photo.

Two nights ago the baby (not so baby any more ) Long-eared Owls were still around,  I haven't been able to check since then. Here is a photo of one from a week or two ago.
