immature
Black-capped Chickadees have emerged from the nest house and now 2 young birds are hanging around. They don't do much except wait for food from the parents...quite a cute sight.

molting
A few of this species have been passing through Delta BC. Such an incredible pattern and colour. It's unfortunate that getting any closer would have flushed the bird and was impossible.

Burns Bog Nature Reserve Delta BC
Since I've been working at home, I go for a walk in the bog most days after work. I always take a camera, but the birds have been scarce. This was my lucky day. The location is about 1 Km from where Chris now resides.

In a short but close encounter with a large flock of Dunlin, at least 3 Western Sandpipers, and probably a lot more were present at Boundary Bay.
I haven't had any free time in the past 2 months - so it was good to get out for a bit.

It seemed that several of the Dunlin were resting and feeding at the same time...being careful with the incoming tide. Boundary Bay, BC.

In 30 years, I've never experience something like this. While hunkered down at the water's edge, well over a thousand Dunlin and other sandpipers started making their way towards me. Eventually, all I could hear was a chorus of "peeps" as the birds quickly followed the tide moving in...eventually surrounding me. It was like I was feeding with them at one point. I took a few photos and crawled away, making sure not to flush them on their journey of several thousand miles.
