These Monk Parakeets are on alert! Why? There were two Cooper’s Hawks approaching their nest.

“Are you looking at me?” sez the Brooklyn Mama Hawk.

Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers drill for sap.
The sap attract the insects.
The insects attract birds.

It’s always good to see a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.

Beautiful Osprey perched at Crescent. The Northern Flickers were not happy but they didn’t dive bomb this bird like they do the Red-tailed Hawks.

This is one of four Northern Flickers eating out of this tree. Tree must have good reviews.

Buffleheads are small diving ducks. Their name comes from the male’s “Buffalo like” puffy large head.

Missed my chance to catch a Black and White Warbler on video.
Dejected, I turned around and there sat a male Black-throated Blue Warbler. Score!

A female Greater Scaup is brown with a darker head and white patches by the bill. They can dive up to 20 feet in search of food.

Look at this Palm Warbler bobbing its tail. The tail movement stirs up insects which is the bird’s preferred food source.

I heard a ruckus and went to see what was going on. A young Cooper’s Hawk, carrying a pigeon, gets chased out of a tree by Blue Jays. The Hawk drops the pigeon but evidence of the catch is still on his beak. It was wild!

This young Peregrine Falcon perched for over 20 minutes in this spot. I don’t know much about them but it seemed a bit odd. The trees below him were full of warblers.

Any Monk Parakeet experts out there? i believe this is a parent (r) feeding fledgling (l). The baby is almost the same size and their colors are clean and bright.
