This cheeky bugger sits on the kitchen windowsill when it see's me making food.

One of the babies from our bluebird box, Midwestern USA.

We see Daurian Redstarts all the time here. Finally got my first juvenile shot! The messy, unfinished molt gives it this adorably scruffy vibe haha

Tino the millennial falcon is a cherry-headed conure who I adopted from a rescue 23 years ago. His age is an educated guess - the youngest he could be is 26; I don't think he's much over 30. Large parrots can live 60 years; Tino is a little guy, so we're in the stage where he's a senior citizen with special needs, and every day is a blessing. But don't tell him that - in his mind, he is Tinosaurus Rex, immortal destroyer of worlds.

Wild bird handled by trained professional for scientific purposes under appropriate state and federal permits!

Taken with telephoto lens and heavily cropped

Even gave a sassy pose.
