I often joke that if I need to know the name of a bird that all I need do is incorrectly identify it in a BlueSky post. 🤡

Rufous Hummingbird Similar Species to, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

I only heard about the Rufous the other day so it's interesting I find this post. Looking at this website I get the feeling the photo is that of a Rufous, not an Allen's Hummingbird, but I'm new to birding. www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Rufous...

Eagles. One with ruffled feathers and no head!!! #bird #birds #eagles #nature #photography

Bald Eagle. Shadow makes it look like the eagle is sticking his chest out. #bird #birds #eagle #nature #photography

Train bridge where the Nicomekl River meets Mud Bay. On other side of the bridge is a marina where low tide isn't always nice to the boats. #photography #train #boat #BC #ocean #sea

Typical day in the life of an eagle. #bird #birds #eagle #nature #photography

Nothern Goshawk (immature). Image quality isn't that good due to this hawk sitting on the highest tree around. #bird #birds #hawk #nature #photography

Belted Kingfisher. #bird #birds #kingfisher #nature #photography

Belted Kingfisher. Pardon the graininess in the 2nd photo caused by her body shadow being so dark that to see anything I had to lighten up the photo a great deal. #bird #birds #kingfisher #nature #photography

Belted Kingfisher. I imagine the odd look on her face is how she looks when scanning the water for fish. #bird #birds #kingfisher #nature #photography

Belted Kingfisher. This Kingfisher flew past me as I sat by the river and landed on this branch, took off, returned, dived into the river, took off, returned, returned, returned. #bird #birds #kingfisher #nature #video

Red Winged Blackbird. I processed these photos to bring out the orangish lines on this blackbirds body. Usually the body is black to the naked eye and all I see is the red stripe on the wing. #bird #birds #blackbird #nature #photography

Stellar Jay. #bird #birds #jay #nature #photography

Green Winged Teal. This pair choose to rest on the muddy bank rather than the wind swept river. Not even moving away as they usually do when I pass by. #bird #birds #duck #ducks #nature #photography
