A male Northern Flicker looking out from a hole on a tree trunk.
A barn swallow skimming right above water, its beak is open wide and the lower beak is almost touching the water
A chimney swift skimming over water. Its tail is in the water and it looks like it has also dipped the tips of its wings. It's leaving a straight wake behind.

A cedar waxwing in flight, with its tail all spread open

Closeup of an osprey with a frowny expression, looking very focused on finding fish
An osprey flying with spread wings, showing how long they are compared to its body length.

A male red-bellied woodpecker perched upside down on a thin branch, and holding a berry in its beak
An Eastern Kingbird perched on a leafy branch, looking at a bug that's flying right above
An eastern kingbird, black head and back with white chin and underside. It's perched with its beak tilted up looking like a feathered dictator

A yellow-billed cuckoo perched on a branch. It has long folded wings, a long tail and a curved black and yellow bill
A common yellowthroat perched on a thin horizontal branch. It's looking down at the branch probably looking for grubs.
A portrait of a grackle, looking up and giving its good side to the camera. Its feathers are iridescent in purple and deep blue.

An American Avocet walking on the mud. Its beak is slightly open and full of mud too.
A Hudsonian Whimbrel in silhouette, with its beak in the sand. It's backlit by the orange and yellow sunset light, and there's an out of focus wave in the background.
Blurry dark photo of trees reflected on water. There's a rough-winged swallow at the bottom left corner but the head and part of the wings is out of frame.
Five raven chicks on a nest built on part of a cathedral's facade. They're pretty big already!
Black and white photo taken on a shady wooded area. There's a small wooden bridge, behind it there's a lake and far away in the background you can see fancy Upper West Side apartment buildings

Two ospreys flying pretty high up. One might be chasing the other?
An osprey flying with stretched wings. It's looking a bit to the right.

A male red-bellied woodpecker perched on a tree trunk, looking away from the tree.

A brown creeper perched on a tree that's leaning to the left. It's slightly behind the tree so we can see its white belly. It's holding a bug on its beak.
The turnstiles on a New York City subway station. There's a Citibike bicycle laying on the floor. It looks like someone rode the bike down the stairs straight to the turnstiles to take a train.
A great egret looking to the side and showing its back to the camera. It has a bunch of long thin feathers that reach down to the water.
An american wigeon hanging out on a beam of sunlight, looking pretty content. It's a male but its plumage doesn't look like it is in full breeding mode.

A male Hooded Merganser swimming with its white hood up. His bright yellow eye contrasts with his black face. He knows he's looking great.
Green-winged teals doing goofy mating moves
