Metro Vancouver's second snowstorm of the winter season finally brought the lovely and much anticipated male Varied Thrush to my backyard, where he spent the greater part of the day excavating the white stuff for tasty grubs. With their dazzling palette of orange, grey, and black hues, this reclusive songbird is a welcome sight during the monochromatic winter months. Photographed in mid-February 2019.

Some of my favorite birds from a trip to the Pacific Northwest in 2021. This design features the bird species listed below with scattered bits of Douglas fir in between: Steller’s Jay Swainson’s Thrush Wilson’s Warbler American Dipper Bushtit Chestnut-backed Chickadee Violet-green Swallow Lazuli Bunting Red-breasted Sapsucker Spotted Towhee

On a very memorable Boxing Day 2017, a dozen of these enchanting but highly reclusive songbirds were frequenting the trees and vocalizing near the Burnaby Lake Nature House at Piper Spit. None seemed particularly concerned about the presence of photographers, and I daresay some of the subjects even worked the cameras with their pretty poses!

These days a lot of little birds leave their nests, I saw and heard this fledgling in our garden this afternoon and could venture near enough to take his picture. (Nikon D5200; lens: AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm)

This is the third sighting I have had of this lovely but elusive songbird in the yard, but this is the only time I have seen it out in the open, perfectly and calmly posed on the pyracantha coccinea (Scarlet Firethorn), whose reddish-orange berries are a big hit with the usual repertoire of wintering birds in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The warm yellow background--courtesy of the leaves of the neighbor's weeping alder--adds a golden, autumn-y touch to this image! This photo was featured in the 2018 Wild Birds Unlimited Calendar, the 2018 Nature Canada Calendar, the 2020 Canadian Geographic Photo Club Calendar, and the 2021 Canadian Geographic 365-page-a-day Calendar.

Swainson's Thrush by Debra Martz I captured this little one just as I was getting ready to leave/complete my day of bird watching. It was a late Spring migrant passing through Port Aransas, Texas. ©Debra Martz 20190514-DSC_0970
