Making progress in my stock-building endeavour, I have assembled 5 owl keychains! One of which is now available on my website! I’m very proud of the softness of that design!

A felt owl keychain photographed on a black and wooden background with decorative plants and felt around. The keychain features an owl with a brown body and beige face and little feathery horns. Its beak and wings are brown, and the tip of its wings are beige. The owl has a beige rectangular tail with a brown little triangle at the base. The owl is looking over its shoulder, its embroidered eyes in a happy squint and its big round cheeks are pink. Attached to its head is an ivory ribbon with brown checkers, linking the owl to a small bronze key ring.

Moment of Stillness in the Forest

While sitting in the backyard with Charlie, we listened to a spirited sing-off between a northern cardinal, a brown thrasher, a great crested flycatcher, and a Carolina wren. Their songs filled the air, creating a beautiful chorus, though the only birds I actually spotted were the cardinals. As our outdoor session came to an end, I got up, and we wandered to the edge of the fence, scanning the surrounding trees in hopes of catching a glimpse of the hidden singers. Despite our efforts, they remained tucked away in the foliage. Just as we were looking up, a red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus) suddenly landed in the oak tree above us, offering an unexpected and welcome sight.

"This image captures a striking red-bellied woodpecker perched on the side of a tree branch. Its most eye-catching feature is the brilliant red cap that runs from its forehead to the nape of its neck, standing out vividly against its pale face and underbelly. Its wings and back are adorned with a bold pattern of black and white barring, giving it a textured, almost woven appearance. The woodpecker grips the branch with its strong claws, and the tree itself is weathered, with patches of moss and lichen clinging to the bark. The background is a soft blur of green foliage, suggesting a quiet, natural setting. The image is signed "Swede's Photographs" in the bottom left corner" - Copilot.

Jalohaikarat löysivät kosteikolle. Great white egrets found their way to wetland.
Pienehköllä kosteikkoalueella on ollut aika paljon vipinää: laulujoutsenpari, kurkia, välillä lokkeja ja tiiroja, silkki- ja mustakurkku-uikkuja, töyhtöhyyppiä, noki- ja liejukanoja, monenmoisia sorsia, pikkulintuja ja kahlaajia, kana- ja varpushaukkakin on vilahtanut ohitse... Jalohaikarat mahtuvat mukaan ja suhtautumista muihin lintuihin on ollut opettavaista seurata.

1. kuvassa taitaa olla emo ja sen viime vuoden poikanen, joka vaikutti aralta ja seurasi tätä mustanokkaista lintua tiiviisti.
2. kuvassa kaksi nuorta lintua, toisella kalasaalis, joten toinenkin on valppaana ja astelee lähemmäksi (kalat usein liikkuvat parvissa).
3. kuvassa haikarat lepäävät ja kurki tepastelee taustalla.
4. kuvassa kurki saa kyytiä. Viisi kurkea laskeutui vierailemaan hyvältä näyttävälle kosteikolle, mutta siellä pesivät kaksi kurkiparia eivät niitä kauan katselleet ja karkottivat pois. Omille tuleville poikasille pitää turvata hyvät elinmahdollisuudet ja riittävä ravinto.

"i refuse to be overlooked!"-- female Shining Honeycreeper

costarring a sneaky Tennessee Warbler lurking in back but we won't talk about her

A colorful bird with a downcurved beak, yellow throat, blue "moustache," blue chest streaks, and yellow legs perches in front of a blurred-out ordinary-looking Tennessee Warbler. The pretty pushy one is a female Shining Honeycreeper. Behind them is a blurred out green forest. Photo by Peachfront. April 2025. Bastimentos Island, Panama.
