This little sparrow sat for the longest time just gazing toward the west as day came to a close. I never tire of watching birds; they are among my best friends on earth.

It uses a range of habitats, but open woodland is favoured, It builds its nest in a tree fork, and decorates the exterior with moss or lichen to make it less conspicuous. It lays about six eggs. The chaffinch is the UK’s second commonest breeding bird, and is arguably the most colourful of the UK’s finches.

My friend Lora Mae wrote these lovely lines after viewing one of my bird photos. She said the tiny bird inspired these thoughts in her. I coupled her words with a photo of a Tufted Titmouse. Please visit LoraMae’s gallery. It’s a real treat. She is a kind, sensitive, candid writer who cuts to the chase and brings to the surface in a refreshing way some of the conditions we as humans experience day by day.

Thrush chick… With no parent in site or sound for me this was a difficult one to walk away from…... ): The chicks are ready to fledge at 13-14 days, but if the nest is disturbed, they can leave as early as nine days old. They creep and flutter from the nest, and remain in nearby cover for a few days. They are more or less flightless at first, but within a week can fly well. They continue to be fed by the parents while they are learning to find and handle food themselves. The young birds will be independent about three weeks after leaving the nest. Fledged young are often left in the care of the male, while the female prepares for the next nesting effort. Nestlings from later broods can be found until August. There are considerable losses at egg and chick stage, with only a third of nests producing fledged adults. Captured within a country park nr Bigglesawade Beds England.

As a nature photographer, I have a soft spot for the tiny birds that inhabit the bush I try to explore. This bird is a yellow rumped warbler, a funny name for beautiful little bird. I captured this image at the Oyster Bay Regional Park on Vancouver Island with a Nikon D300 and Nikkor 600 mm F/4 lens.

Bonaparte Gulls are much smaller than many other gulls on the west coast. They are very gregarious, travelling together in very large flocks. I managed to isolate this bird as it came in to land.

I don’t know who was drowsier as I watched Mr. Scruffy on his tiny branch, me or my little hummer friend. We both seemed to be nodding in the heat of Indian summer. I got this shot of him napping just before I, too, had to call it quits and head inside for a little snooze. View larger so you can see Mr. Scruffy’s little eyelid! Here’s Mr. Scruffy in his waking state:

I felt so fortunate to come across what I thought was a merlin, a small falcon, and deadly predator for small birds, in the Campbell River estuary. After reviewing my first identification, I have revised my earlier conclusion. I now think this bird is a Cooper’s Hawk. I would appreciate advice from those with more bird knowledge. I was looking for shore birds, particularly kingfishers, when I saw this bird perched on a dead tree limb. I did not have my camera, so had to return to my car, and hope he would still be on the perch when I returned. I was lucky and unlucky. I got a shot, but could not approach to a full frame distance, even with my longest lens. This image is cropped a lot, but I am still happy with it. I shot this with my Nikon D700, Nikkor 600 mm lens and 1.4 teleconverter, using these settings: ISO 640, -0.33 EV, f5.6, 1/1250s.
