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.

Hammond's Flycatcher had just caught a bee and went on feeding in the very lush mountainside of West Vancouver, British Columbia. The species has a dark bill with very little orange, a grayish appearance and the primaries extend more towards the tail.
