Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

Only 5 photos of this difficult species on the site. On a dark day in a dark setting, it was challenging to get even this mediocre example. Seen at Sainte-Catherine in a stand of pines along with 2 others, and 2 Brown Creepers.
