Great Blue Heron
Great blue herons are amazing, highly adaptable and can be found in a wide range of wetland habitats, from freshwater lakes and rivers to saltwater estuaries and coastal shorelines. They are commonly distributed throughout North America, with their range extending into parts of Central America and the Caribbean.
The male and female look almost the same. On average, males are a little larger with longer ornamental plumes, but these distinctions are so slight and variable that it’s hard to see the difference, even when members of a pair are together.
The great blue heron is the largest heron species in North America, standing about 4 feet tall. For such large and lanky birds, herons are speedy, flying as fast as 30 mph.
They usually fly with their necks in an S-shape and their legs trailing behind them.
With a lightning-fast strike, herons easily nab fish or frogs for a meal.
It’s always a pleasure to find this beautiful bird.Quick View -

Little Red Sparrow

$15.00 – $250.00Select optionsHe always makes me smile when he drops in for a visit. Red Sparrows have adapted well to urban environments, where they find plenty of food sources and nesting opportunities. They have learned to live alongside humans and take advantage of the resources we provide, such as crumbs from outdoor dining or bird feeders.
- Consistent Food Sources: The availability of food from bird feeders, gardens, and even discarded food scraps ensures a stable food supply for sparrows in areas with human activity. They become familiar with these food sources and return regularly.
- Tolerance to Human Presence: Sparrows may have learned over time that humans pose little threat to them. Unlike some other bird species, they have adapted to living in close proximity to people and are less skittish.
- Social Nature: Sparrows are social birds and often found in flocks. When one individual becomes accustomed to a specific location, other sparrows may follow suit, further reducing their fear of humans.
- Opportunistic Behavior: Sparrows are opportunistic feeders, which means they readily exploit new food sources. If your window perch provides a good vantage point or a reliable spot for foraging, it’s likely to attract their attention.
Having sparrows as constant companions can bring a sense of connection to the natural world right at your doorstep. Enjoy the company of your little red sparrow and continue to provide a safe and inviting space for these delightful little birds to visit.

With thin, lisping cries, flocks of Cedar Waxwings descend on berry-laden trees and hedges, to flutter among the branches as they feast. These birds are sociable at all seasons, and it is rare to see just one waxwing. Occasionally a line of waxwings perched on a branch will pass a berry back and forth, from bill to bill, until one of them swallows it. This species has a more southerly range .
