Great Dusky Swifts are amazing! They breeding behind the most powerful falls and it is incredible watching them fly through the water to get there. This gives them the best protection from any predators ever! This one was taken at the Garganta del Diablo, the most powerful of the Iguazu falls!

Great Egrets are a quite recent addition to the Western European fauna. The species is expanding from the East, and the first breeding records for Switzerland just occurred a couple years ago. It is still more common in the winter though.

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.

Grebes (especially red-necked) are not seen very often on the Thames river in London, with the exception of the last very cold winter, where the only open water was close to the warm outflow of the water treatment plant in Greenway and Springbank Park. This bird is putting on its breeding plumage already!

There are a few locations in the lower mainland where breeding sites have been successful. In most cases the houses are mounted in piers on the water to prevent land based predators.

First time I've seen one in breeding plumage. It landed in front of me for about 5 seconds, I got two shots away.
