It's always a highlight of my day when I get to see a Least Bittern. These birds are uncommon here and hard to find in the wetlands. This male is making a short flight, flying low over the lily pads and knocking down the morning dew from a cattail.

A young male Northern Cardinal following Dad along the boardwalk railing. I believe the young one is a male due to the red feathers on the face.

Young Great Blue Herons have been testing their wings and leaving their nests, and these two landed on nearby tree. They were working hard to keep their balance, while also seeming to try to knock the other bird off the tree top with their wings.

A male Eastern Bluebird on the lookout for insects to hunt down. While reviewing my photos I realized there is a young Eastern Bluebird in the upper left, keeping a close eye on Dad.

An Osprey parent bringing back breakfast, an orange koi. There's an adult on the nest (on the right with yellow eyes), along with four nestlings (three easily seen, another one tucked in in the back.) I'm pretty sure someone's fancy fish pond has been a popular fishing spot for these Osprey.

My favorite bird, the Tufted Titmouse. I haven't seen too many of them around over the last couple of months, but with their young ones leaving the nest I am seeing them back around the nature trails.

A Red-bellied Woodpecker's tongue has multiple barbs facing backward toward the throat. This specialized design helps with dislodging insects in tree crevices. If you look closely, you can see the barbs at the end of this female Red-bellied Woodpecker's tongue.

The sunshine bringing out the brilliant red of a Red-headed Woodpecker. I find it easy to overexpose the whites on these birds, so I was underexposing on this shot so I wouldn't lose any details in the white feathers.

I heard lots of rustling in the grasses next to the boardwalk and waited to see what delight would soon appear. It was a lovely White-tailed fawn. 🦌

Sandhill Cranes at a week and a half old. I have been a little concerned about the one on the left as he/she has been running away from the parents to explore and there are mink in the area. Both colts look to be doing well.

The young Sandhill Cranes that are under two weeks old are mostly being fed by their parents, but this one has spotted a nearby insect that will make for a light snack.

Great Blue Herons nestlings are beginning to test their wings. This young one took a spin around the rookery and then landed back at the nest. He/she is the one on the right in the second photo, looking triumphant while the others look with wonderment at what he/she just did.

A young Sandhill Crane (almost a week old) having a sit. What appears to be a backwards knee is actually their ankle. Bird knees are further up their legs and are usually hidden by feathers.

A Red-winged Blackbird was calling at a Blue Jay to leave, but the Blue Jay didn't have any interest in leaving. A diving Baltimore Oriole from above (not seen in the shot) caused the Red-winged Blackbird to take off and startled the Blue Jay (who still didn't leave.)
