Delighted to finally spot my first Marsh Fritillary today, at Crosswood Bog. I've been looking out for them for the last few years at different spots.

Spotted Flycatcher
A pair of Spotted Flycatchers return each year to nest in Virginia Creeper growing above the door of the local village pub. It was late in the evening and getting a wee bit dark, so it's a rather grainy shot.

Lovely shot! It looks like a Female Bullfinch. A juvenile Bullfinch wouldn't have a black cap yet as far as I'm aware.

I don't post here much, just follow in awe of the pics. But thought this was nice a few weeks ago. Not crisp as out a window unfortunately.

^^^

"There, through the broken branches, go
The ravens of unresting thought;
Flying, crying, to and fro,
Cruel claw and hungry throat,
Or else they stand and sniff the wind,
And shake their ragged wings; alas!
Thy tender eyes grow all unkind:
Gaze no more in the bitter glass."

Excerpt from "The Two Trees", W. B. Yeats
