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.”

Birds, Birds, Birds

Palm Warbler
Male Eastern Towhee
Male Down Woodpecker
This male Red-bellied Woodpecker has been advertising this nest site for a couple weeks now. No takers yet.
It’s hard to get a good photo of the fast-moving Brown Creeper.
This one was clamoring up tombstones, presumably for the spiders, mites, ants, etc. you can find amid the lichen.

“The two forms of antidemocracy feed on each other.“
