Backyard and Beyond

Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Pairs & Solos

These two House Finches were in the same tree courting.

There’s a nest hole right in front of this male Red-bellied Woodpecker. He’s been calling and calling.
Just a little bit of the ruby crown.

Couldn’t get these two Carolina Wrens to cooperate for a photo, but they were foraging in close proximity.

Downy eating like mad.
