The last winter storm with snow, rain and ice everywhere also brought many birds into the garden - a male Redpoll.
There are also lots of Pine Siskins and Goldfinches.

Whimsical Woodland Sprite
This whimsical sprite is playfully dubbed a tree gnome (Nanus arboris)—just kidding! But doesn’t the bird’s crest resemble a gnome’s hat? In reality, it is a tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor). These charming little birds frequent the nearby forest and often visit my backyard feeders. Their visits are brief; they swoop in just long enough to snatch a sunflower seed or peanut before darting back to the safety of the trees.
Tufted titmice are a favorite among a select group of bird enthusiasts. To celebrate these charming creatures, I’ve curated a special collection dedicated entirely to them in my photo gallery. Take a look!

An #introduction: I am a doctoral candidate at Rutgers with a focus on using #spectroscopy, especially #VibrationalSpectroscopy, #Chemometrics and data tools to understand chemical reaction systems.
At home, I am interested in #homelab, #birdphotography, and #3dprinting. I used to have other interests, but the PhD consumed them. Whenever I post, it'll probably be small things for funsies and work I do in #Python and LaTeX.
I have the fake shutter sound enabled and I'm sure they hear it sometimes and turn to look at what made the noise.

Bird of the Day — Black-capped Chickadee. Kansas, yesterday
Hey, Sweetie!
My first great egret 
I had seen great egrets before and photographed them 3-4 times. But the photos were just to show that I had seen some.
The Great White Egret (Ardea Alba) grows up to 100 cm tall and has a wingspan of up to 170 cm. It feeds mainly on amphibians, fish and aquatic insects. mein erster Silberreiher Ich hatte schon öfter mal Silberreiher gesehen und auch 3-4 mal fotografiert. Nur waren das eher „Beweißfotos“. Jetzt konnte ich mal einen etwas besser ablichten. Der Silberreiher (Ardea Alba) wird bis zu 100 cm groß und bekommt eine Spannweite von bis zu 170 cm. Er ernährt sich vor allem von Amphibien, Fischen und Wasserinsekten. Silberreiher sind in Deutschland vor allem Durchzügler, aber es gibt zunehmend Exemplare mit festen Standort.

Robin (Erithacus rubecula, Rotkehlchen, 
rudzik) - a #portrait
Update on Rosie Pearl—the hummingbird that made a nest and laid her eggs in my back patio string lights. The twins keep growing! Swipe to see a progression of their growth. They look huge in this picture, but they are still very tiny hummingbirds. Rosie doesn’t comes as often as she used to. These babies are almost ready to take flight!

Peaceful Moment
Sometimes, the light hits just perfectly. This is a female ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris), and she seems to be pausing briefly to bask in the sun. Of course, it’s probably less of a pause and more of a fleeting moment—these tiny creatures rarely stay still for long. While I often capture photos around my hummingbird feeders, I especially treasure opportunities like this, when I can photograph them in more natural settings. This particular shot was taken just a few days ago. In addition to nectar, these birds also feed on small insects.
You know, the photographs I post here are not as vivid as the same ones in my Pixel's gallery. This is because I reduce the size and slightly decrease the quality of the photos to make them easier to load. Take a look:

A little more fun with the TTArtisan Mirror Lens. I love the effect it has on the gold grasses, the sand and the trees although it probably doesn't show itself well on a small screen.
By the way, these ducks and I are building a pretty strong rapport, so expect to see more (and hopefully interesting) photos of them in the future. 
A Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) along the shores of the Capilano River in North Vancouver, British Columbia. I made this photo quite a long time ago and was experimenting with shutter speeds. The slows shutter speed won in that contest. Herons are one of the few birds that would have been still long enough for me to pull this off!
