Besides woodpeckers, the tiny Pacific Wren lives in the old forest next door to me year-round. Sometimes it feels like trying to photograph a flying mouse ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿชถ

Bohemian Waxwing, January 13, Bull River Valley, MT. This was 1 of possibly a few thousand bohemian waxwings I watched for over an hour moving from north to south through the valley, a very surreal experience. ๐Ÿชถ #bohemianwaxwing

A Canada lynx tripped the sensor on my camera trap in the Northwest Peak Roadless Area, MT, back on August 30. I didn't get any good photos of the lynx with its head up, but this image shows how large those back legs are.
