I eyes on a Hooded Warbler through my camera viewfinder for exactly 1 second. This is what I bought my OM1 and 100 to 400mm for.

One of the Piping Plover chicks laying flat in the sand. This was when a Peregrine Falcon had landed nearby— all the birds were fluting & piping alerts. I am assuming this was a defensive/hide position from the chick due to the falcon.

A Piping Plover chick from last Sunday! I believe this is Ferris, though I’m not positive.
They were all over Montrose Beach looking for breakfast in the sand.

Anyone know how to find out info on this dude?

A Spotted Sandpiper nervously eyeing a Peregrine Falcon that just landed on the tower at Montrose. He was sounding the alarm and bouncing his butt up and down.

A Yellow Warbler at Montrose Bird Sanctuary this morning.
It was so cold. I have been home for hours and I am still cold. Not super busy this morning, bird or human wise.
Brr.
Her name is Valentina of the Flowers.

A Cedar Waxwing on this beautiful morning.
This one is named Connor and he loves to discuss the difference in insect tastes in different parts of North America.
