Bountifulbombus - *Common Loon Screaming At 3am*

The lighting is a bit bad, but it’s a Great Blue Heron.

I found a red-shouldered hawk eating a mouse at my local walmart and I got some pretty neat pictures. 

GULLS!

Oh heck something happened to the killdeer nest. The eggs are missing and the parents are nowhere to be found. There's no sign of the eggs having hatched either. I just saw the mother yesterday evening and now she's gone, along with her mate.

Dryocopus pileatus - Pileated Woodpecker

The picture is a tad bit blurry, but he’s still beautiful.

Weird bird dream

Okay, so, I had a really weird dream last night that kinda turned into a nightmare. It was morning, and I woke up to the sound of a huge flock of starlings, so I got up and looked out the window and, as suspected, there was a huge flock of starlings, but then it just kept getting bigger until the sky was covered in birds. It wasn't just starlings anymore, it was crazy. The world got really dark, but once the birds passed everything seemed pretty normal. EXCEPT!!! There were all sorts of cool birds all over the place, a really rare bird came to the bird feeder, I can't really remember what it was, but it was so cool. I grabbed my camera and tried to take pictures of it. Key word: tried. My camera wasn't working and the rare bird flew away. Then I woke up feeling really disappointed.

I haven't seen too many birds yet since we're still driving, but I'm taking this extremely bird-like cloud as a sign that I'm going to see some really cool birds.
