Back to the birds–pat morss

Feather activity is picking up as spring advances.

A Red-bellied Woodpecker awaits its turn on the feeder.
Just off the rocks, Common Eiders ride the swells.
Up, over, and down the other side.
A Song Sparrow takes a break, resting on one leg.
And then it’s back to work.
A Red-tailed Hawk hovers in the wind, looking for a live lunch.
A Turkey Vulture is content with the already dead.
Wild Turkeys – do those look like expressions of love?
Poop rock, Niles Pond; this Double-crested Cormorant looks a little moth-eaten.
Center duck to Merganser: “You DO know you are hogging our rock?”
“OK then, we’ll just move in until you leave.”
This stylish Red-breasted Merganser pair looks happily married.
Left Canada Goose: “Will you accept this engagement band and marry me?”
A male Mallard crosses from pond to wetland, presumably to his mate on a nest.
