This week, I’ve been spoiled for choice for a FoF photo, due to the extravagance of the birds at my feeders. How to remedy this? Simply post three. The first is an inquisitive Clark’s Nutcracker, the second a Black-capped Chickadee and the third is a Black-billed Magpie trying to get a grip on a suet cage. Hope you enjoy them!

This week’s Feathers on Friday is a female Western Tanager, part of a twenty-five strong flock found in South Canmore. Migration is truly upon us!

A very common bird this time, in the shape of a Mallard. This youngster is the oldest of 17 Mallards that hatched on Policeman’s Creek this year.

Male American Redstarts are pretty little birds, dashing in their crisp black and orange plumage, so the females are often overlooked. They are bedecked in bright yellow and varying shades of grey, and a lot harder to see than the flashy males, who are happy to pose for you. Not the bird of the week, though – I saw a lifer yesterday, one I’ve missed on three separate trips out for it – Palm Warbler! It may be setting up territory, so I’ll be back to see if I can find it again, and maybe get some images.
