Birds of the Vermilon River, Canada. A Post to Camera Critters


Northern Crow.


Close Up Northern Crow
Hope you're not getting tired of these guys. But have you ever seen such a majestic fellow?

Male RedPoll


Female RedPoll
My own RedPolls are gone, and Boomer and I miss the constant activity, sort of one long feeding cycle.










It's the same woodpecker that's how I know he has the male red patch.

A note to Hilke: You once said you transferred to your hard drive directly from your camera. Did you mean external hard drive and how did you do that?

Blogger's preview on my set up is all distorted and
missing the header. Anyone else having the same problem?

  5. Great photos. The ospreys have at last returned to the north fork of Long Island, our surest sign of spring and way more than welcome. Happy spring to you and your feathered friends.

  10. Another great post. Love the chickadee. I'll send you my redpolls any time you want them.

    Blogger, by the way, has been a pain in the a** the past few days, so that may be why you're having trouble.

  38. Great close ups, Gary. Love the woodpecker sitting on the ground, unusual shot. Great redpolls images and LOVE the crows. great feather detail. Crows can be hard to get good photos of because of the dark feathers and they are cagey and hard to get close to generally.

  39. Thanks Robin. It is funny to see the woodpecker on the ground like that.
