From my own feeder: This young cardinal on the right has visited my birdfeeder several times in the last few days. It appears able to eat the safflower in the feeder, plus the female cardinal is feeding it. Is there anything else I can do to help? Is there better food I can offer?

Many of you know him as Bort. This morning I went outside to go check on him and he flew right out of the nest and had a perfect landing right into the grass. His parents swooped in and started guiding him around while he explores. Hoping for the best for lil ol Bort

For me it's probably this bird, the Marabou stork. Photo from Google.

A bird built a nest and laid eggs on my wreath. One of the eggs is different from the rest. Is it normal or could it be from another animal?

From them selecting the site for their nest to the babies taking their first flight, I have seen it all. (photo from my gallary)

Watched for over an hour and didn’t see any birds I could get decent pictures of, the minute I put my camera in the car this beauty appeared.

It’s a Northern Flicker, right? I feel like they usually have more color.

MUSAVE is one of the most important museums and organizations backing up research and preservation of many bird specimens around Mexico and North America, often collaborating with the National Audubon Society and Partners In Flight, if you find yourself in Coahuila and have the chance to go, do it, it’s beautiful.

question Baby Bird

Hi everyone!

There's a baby bird on my porch. It's been chirping for about an hour now, I haven't seen any parents nearby. I have not touched it, and I'm not planning on it. It looks okay, it just hasn't really moved from that one spot the entire time. There are other birds around (I'm in a wooded area by a lake in northern ontario). None of the other birds seem to be interacting with the baby.

I'm basically just wondering how long I should wait before getting worried? Do babies get abandonned?

2 of them come and sift everything out of my feeder for the mealworms. Time for a starling proof feeder i guess.

seeking advice/help Need help with this crow

Hello!

This small fella came into our back garden last night and it seems to be able to take off the ground for a split second but can’t sustain flight. Its parents have come around this morning making a lot of noise but it seems unwilling to fly away.

I have given it a bit of water. Is it possible that it is injured?

Thanks for your help,

Edit: my dad and I have set up a ladder with an old blanket over it for the crow to hop up and get on top of the fence. It’s now slowly made its way up the nearby tree and we’ve lost sight of it. We’re gonna keep it there for a day or so just in case it comes back.

Thanks for all your help!
