Alder Bay, Vancouver Island BC.
Got some pics of these little guys this past weekend.
And caught this Heron hunting eels
And this crow swooping an eagle! Not sure if defending nest or territory.
Nice shot. Light on the face is just perfect.
Woops. Junco as thisbenzingring said. Added the name to my post. Thanks. 👍
They're pretty cool characters. This one likes to get on the window feeder and kick all the seed out even if it's just hulled sunflower.
Shot I took in my backyard, on Vancouver island. This little Junco is a regular at the feeder.
We have a new family nesting in our carport. Looks like worms on the menu.

Vancouver Island. Comox Valley. Local pond has a family of ducks. This was my first attempt at getting shots last weekend.
Hah! Nice. Thanks, I fixed it.
Nice shot. Dig the light in the wings.
Took this pic mid June. We had a siege in the forest across the road here on Vancouver Island.
They had a couple broods.. the noise..
Nice shot.
Thanks! And heck yeah to Sundays. Any kind of weekly sharing thread would be pretty sweet.
Got this little guy on a weekend trip to Quadra Island, BC, a couple weeks ago.
Love this cheeky butt pic, but wish I'd gotten the eyes in focus!
Thanks!
Nice! Thanks for the info. This one had a nest in one of our hanging baskets. It was hidden well so I didn't get any good pics of the brood, unfortunately.
Took this pic back at the end of May in my backyard. Vancouver Island, BC
More Angles:
It's a chipping sparrow, per Merlin. I got this other pic of the parent that I ran through the app:

Both parents fed their baby bird till it could muster the energy to make its way back home.
