A great blue heron enjoys a good prune. A juvenile bald eagle looks out of place. And a Northern Hawk-Owl wonders why there's 15-odd people pointing tubes at it.

a northern hawk-owl (which is actually the only extant true owl) perched on the top branches of a pine tree. its golden hour, so the whole scene has a golden cast to it. the owl's eyes look low, as if it is ready for a nap. the sky is a faint blue-grey

a juvenile bald eagle perched on a leafless tree. its feathers are all black/brown, so it looks like an unmarked unit. the sky is a light blue colour, and there's a few leafy trees with brown leaves in the bottom of the frame, out of focus

a great blue heron is perched on the edge of a pond, and preens its belly feathers with its long beak, contorting its neck into what almost looks like a treble clef. it is surrounded by dried grasses and leafless bushes

A beautiful Pintail Duck avoids me, while a Coot chases me for snacks.

A red-breasted nuthatch gives me the "sup?". A black-capped chickadee looks like it's posing for the photo. A red-winged blackbird looks scrungly. And a dark-eyed junco eyes its next seed delivery.

a Black-capped Chickadee perched on the branch of a plant with thick green leaves. the sun is shining from behind the camera, and the whole scene is brightly lit. the chickadee has a bit of red dirt on its upper beak
