We definitely have baby flycatchers. The two parents are busy catching bugs and ferrying them to the #nest box.

An ash-throated flycatcher -- a smallish brown bird with a slight crest (head feathers fluffed up) and a grey neck, plus some rusty red that we can't see in this shot, sits on the roof of a nest box holding a fat green worm in its beak.

Blackbird eggs are rather eye-catching. About three centimetres, blue-green in colour and speckled with brown spots.

Torresian Imperial Pigeon (Ducala spilorrhoa), nesting (A tree over a busy beachside footpath) #smArtist #family #photography #birds #TorresianPigeon #nest #nature #wildlife #EastCoastKin

A large, pied pigeon, white overall with dark tail and pied underside, sitting on a very straggly nest made of large twigs. The bird and nest were in a tree directly over a busy beachside footpath, so it wasn't disturbed by being photographed.

Young Great Blue Herons Waiting For Mom and Dad: These guys look too gargantuan to be babies, but, they are between 4 and 5 weeks old., awaiting their regurgitated supper. After all, the only thing better than spiny sunfish and eels for dinner is regurgitated spiny sunfish and eels.

Turkey nest: found while pulling garlic mustard yesterday.

The turkey abruptly flew out of a tangle of gooseberry. This is what was inside.

#BabyBirds #Robin #Nest #Spring

Photo of a robin's nest made of dried brown grass and twigs, nestled in the green needle-like foliage of a yew, with 3 small birds with black and gray feathers crowded together and sleeping on top of each other. Three pointy yellow-orange beaks can be seen amidst the pile of feathers, 2 pointing up in the top left of the nest and 1 pointing right on the right side of the nest.

Honey, I'm home!!!

A rather grayish swallow with a touch of iridescent navy on the head is landing on the porch of an artificial nest box. This is the female Purple Martin. Photo by Peachfront. Southeast Louisiana.

Good morning!

This was the most beautiful item that I found during yesterday's hike.

A small bird nest sits on brown ground. Behind the nest is a fallen green oak leaf. The nest faces up, and we can see the interior and the amazing weaving that makes this nearly perfectly circular nest.

#birds #nest this was 2 days ago. The American Robins have tried many times over the years to put nests in the deck and carport structure. They haven’t had much success. But this year I have a little hope for them. The nest is deeper in the structure and harder to access. I don’t want to disturb the nest again anytime soon by taking another picturebut I hope they do well this time.

The Northern Mockingbird pair are mostly absent from their nest. I guess the ambient temperature is warm enough that they don’t feel the need to lay on the eggs?

Three Northern Mockingbird eggs with a rust red speckle on a green shell rests in a cozy nest. The nest is in a grapevine. It is shaded by grape leaves, and sunlight is trying stream through.

It takes an Eagle

The Crested Eagle regards the home decorating project she just finished... for some reason, it was very important to move some branches in this huge possibly multi-ton nest from one spot to another...
