Stand Up

I took this photograph of a Carolina chickadee (Poecile carolinensis) yesterday morning. Noticeably, the bird is standing erect and looking into the window of the bird feeder as if window shopping or maybe just trying find the good stuff. The photo's detail isn't the greatest, but it is interesting.

Perched with Purpose

This Carolina chickadee perches with an unusually straight posture, and it sports an oddly punk haircut. Both the posture and the uneven head feathers are indicators that the bird is molting. Apparently, the more upright posture may help relieve the pressure from new emerging feathers.

Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.

Chickadee in Pink

I was digging through my unpublished archives this morning and found this image of a Carolina chickadee holding a sunflower seed. What caught my eye was the soft flash of color from the crepe myrtle blossoms in the background.

Winter Backyard Birding

Black oil sunflower seeds transformed my backyard into a small avian metropolis.

C is for...Carolina chickadee! We're three letters into #ArtABCs 2026. Started by @KarinWanderer and you (yes you!) can join in any time.

I'm trying to get better at designing a whole sketchbook page. I kinda forgot how fun it was to draw straight onto the paper with ink. The pen is a Stipula fountain pen.
