13 May 2021 - A young redwinged blackbird at Overpeck County Park in northern New Jersey.


Young = white shoulder stripe


Male house sparrow, NOT in a parking lot or at an outdoor cafe table



15 May 2021 - A rare backyard visitor: rose-breasted grosbeak.
It seems to look at the resident mourning dove and ask, "So, what's the pose I should take?"


This pose.






20 May - two familiar birds: robin and house sparrow


It's spring, so here come the babies. A fledged starling...


...with a parent.


A flash of bright yellow: a male goldfinch
