#ostdrossel — Public Fediverse posts

After a summery weekend, we got snow flurries today. The garden is waking up everywhere but things still feel odd because there are no nesting #Bluebirds. I have decided to pull the nest today, since there is no sign of any nesting activity. Interestingly enough, a male and a female BB have showed up. There are still Redbreasted #Nuthatches around, and a couple of #Chickadees are showing interest in my other nestbox. #birds #birdsofMastodon #nature #birdwatching #Ostdrossel #birdphotography

When nothing much is going on, there’s still some activity apart from the MoDos. There’s two kinds of #Nuthatches - the very human-friendly teensy Redbreasted and the more shy but equally diligent Whitebreasted. You can tell male and females apart by the color of the broad center stripe on their head. Males have a jet-black one, females more grey.

Happy #NationalBirdDay! I hope you all got to watch some of our wonderful feathered friends today and got entertained by their antics. It has been another quiet day in my yard and I wonder if the #Nuthatches, of which there is a good little number, are happy they get to collect and cache so much stuff without any competition. The Redbreasted are one of my favorites. Tame, vocal & aborbable. #birds #birdsofMastodon #birdsofnorthamerica #birdwatching #nature #Ostdrossel #birdphotography
