A dignified Red-winged Blackbird! #birds #wildlife #photography

A photo you can hear! Male Red-winged Blackbirds are notoriously vocal. This one is giving "Get off my lawn!". 🤭 #birds #wildlife #photography

The under appreciated female Red-winged Blackbird. When I first saw one during my early birding days, I was surprised to find that they weren't anywhere close to looking like their namesake! #birds #wildlife #photography

This Pacific Wren is locked in! 🎯 #birds #wildlife #photography

A Red-winged Blackbird in its natural habitat & state of being: perched on a cattail… #birds #wildlife #photography

Anna's Hummingbird looking very distinguished! #birds #wildlife #photography

A curious Chestnut-backed Chickadee sitting still enough to photograph after restlessly flitting between branches. #birds #wildlife #photography

A Song Sparrow all fluffed-up to keep warm in the brisk winter weather. I'm always grateful when they choose to land on a nice-looking perch. #birds #wildlife #photography

Hi! 👋 I'm Shayne, an amateur bird/wildlife photographer based in Washington state. Here's a Pacific wren actively listening for the call of its people in between bouts of singing. One of the very first bird photos I took that turned out well! #addBirder #birds
