The theory that news headlines that end with a question mark can always be answered with NO, really gets proven here.

I’ve said this before, but a chorus of beeping red-breasted nuthatches is one of the truly hilarious sounds in nature.

The bird books don’t tell you the preferred habitats of a red-breasted nuthatch are the darkest crannies of unphotographable conifers. And their nonstop beep noises translate to “look how quick I am.” Still, it’s my birthday and I wanted a pic of my birthday bird buddy. #birds #HellYeahNuthatches

And where there are no Carolina wrens, it’s an American goldfinch.

It’s the best sound. When they all get going at once, it makes me laugh.

This is where we’re Thanksgiving-ing this year – it’s been bliss, even as the weather has turned sour. This scene looks peaceful, even as it came with the incessant sunset beeping of at least a dozen or so red-breasted nuthatches.

If you’re the second bear, one thing you apparently can’t do is climb that tree!

I rarely use it ( got a naturally hot butt, I guess), but my wife loves it in winter.

We have them too in our 2019 Prius C (essentially a Yaris clone), which we bought brand new after riding a 2000 Honda Civic into the ground. Love the heated seats – but we still miss cars with knobs and dials.

Synchronized sunset sandpipers, sifting the soggy sod of a harvested field outside Winnipeg. Any day now, they’ll synchronize and soar south. #birds

There are oofles of snipes in my area this year. But each one I’ve seen has been zipping by at the speed of light.

That would’ve taken somewhat of a concerted effort to do back in the 1930s, too, rotating each letter a bit like that.

Something I can't stop thinking about: On a whale watching boat out of Provincetown last month, we watched a migrating black-throated green warbler circle the boat before landing on a woman's hat under the canopy of the top deck & resting. Look at it. Haven't you, too, felt this level of weariness?

Detailed marker drawing of a Canada Jay. The gray and white bird is standing on the ground, leaning over with its head slightly cocked upward, giving it a curious expression. The drawing is photographed alongside some warm and cool gray markers and a micron pen.

It was around this time last year I saw all those birds too, on Elk Island. It was really neat to see.

Definitely getting into the October birds now, yeah.

It was, but brief too. A few minutes later the clouds swallowed up everything.

Not so crazy-early like in summer! I only had to leave the house by 6:30.

They seem like a much bigger presence when they’re terrorizing house sparrows in the neighbourhood. But yeah, pretty small in the hand!

I was up early yesterday, at the marsh to see a whale of an autumn sunrise. A true crack-of-dawn affair, the sun slid past an opening on the horizon for this wonderful minute or two before clouds set in. Also I saw birds: geese, ducks, gulls, snipes, longspurs, kinglets, sparrows, eagles.

Seems smaller in the hand, for sure. I see them zipping around the neighbourhood or munching on house sparrows, and they look a lot bigger then!

Jeope! @jeope.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Ha ha, all the birds that get banded definitely must have that dafuq moment. Like getting sucked up by a UFO.

The lady banding the falcon said this beak bite was not as bad as when it got a foot free for a moment.

I love watching those leaf-litter kickers. Such a winning strategy.

To this day, I defy anyone who believes E.T. was cute in any way. He was terrifying even when healthy, let alone during these scenes.

I visited Oak Hammock Marsh this early today to watch the sunrise and morning goose flyout, and later visited the final bird banding session of the season there. And what luck – they caught a merlin! #birds

Ye gads, the falcon is now biting the bander’s hand!
