Downy Woodpeckers get very busy when looking for food in the winter, and they often get so close that taking pictures is made very easy!

This photo shows very well how close this species has to live to humans. It is fundamental to educate people to reduce disturbance as much as they can, and to teach them to respect the other creatures that share their habitats with us!

Some beaches on the Lake Huron host this very rare plover. When they choose a spot to lay their eggs, the site gets fenced in and their eggs are protected with a cage, so that they can carry on their breeding business without being disturbed too much. In fact, they share beaches with humans in summer with apparently no concern! Here a female, notice the narrow blackish (not completely balck) band on the forehead.

Redpoll winter appearances depend largely on the availability of seeds in their habitat further north. When there is a shortage of food, they move south in what is called an irruptive movement. This usually happens every other year or so! When it happens, redpolls are a common visitor to bird feeders!
