Acadian Flycatcher

It’s been quite some time since I captured a photo of a bird that’s ‘new to me.’ This morning, however, an Acadian Flycatcher (Empidonax virescens) made an appearance while Charlie and I were sitting in the backyard. I see the occasional flycatcher, but this was my first encounter with an Acadian. These birds don’t come for birdseed; instead, they seem to be searching for something in the trees or maybe just curious about the gathering of birds nearby.

The photographs I share here aren't as vivid as those in my Pixel gallery. To ensure they load more quickly, I reduce their size and slightly lower their quality. Feel free to take a look!

UA🇺🇦: Нарешті повернулися мої улюблені лимончики - американські щиглики (American Goldfinch), а ще розпустилася войлочна вишня. Так ще трохи і я повірю у весну :)

Kurjet ovat kaikkiaruokaisia ja sammakoiden kutuaikaan niillä on ollut juhlat! Syöminen ei ole ihan yksinkertainen juttu, kun sammakko täytyy yrittää paloitella, mikä kurjen nokalla on hankalaa (vertaa kotkien, haukkojen, tai pöllöjen nokkaan).
Cranes are omnivorous and have had a feast during frogs breeding season! Eating is not a simple matter when you have to try to cut up a frog, which is difficult with a crane's beak (compare to eagle's, hawk's, or owl's beak).

Today, deep in the heart of the forest, I witnessed one of the most powerful sights: a Black Woodpecker (Dryocopus martius) spreading its wings wide, commanding the quiet woods with its presence.
Moments like these remind me why I fell in love with bird photography — capturing the raw beauty and strength of these incredible creatures in their natural element.
The Black Woodpecker is not only Europe’s largest woodpecker but also a true spirit of the wild, rarely seen in such a majestic display.
Every feather tells a story of survival, and every beat of its wings echoes through the trees.
