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.”

At A Feeder

At least four Tufted Titmice; two White-breasted Nuthatches; one Red-breasted Nuthatch; a Chipping Sparrow; two Downy Woodpeckers, male and female. A male Cardinal was in there at the end, too.

Gleaning the bird-fall surplus on the ground, at least two White-throated Sparrows.

These are still photos, calm amidst the swift jockeying, flushing, retreats and returns, of the feathery action.
