Don’t let the cuteness fool you: this yellow-rumped warbler has declared itself sworn enemy of our resident orange-crowned warblers, chasing them off at every opportunity! Baton Rouge-area friends, I hope you can stop in and see the exhibit!! 😍 Our winter visitors! ⬅️The first three are Rufous/Allen’s hummingbirds, all male, all photographed today, 1/25. I believe the last one is a female black-chinned, photographed 1/22. Working hard to keep them fed! 😍 I took a whole series of photos of this Cooper’s hawk through our back door as I watched it methodically stalk something for about five minutes all around the arrowhead vine on two sides of our covered patio. Ultimately, it plunged into the vines and emerged with an unfortunate sparrow that had been hiding there. Fascinating! Here are a few of the pics. ⬅️ A fave winter visitor — Orange-crowned warbler on sweet olive. Assuming it’s the same one, the Calliope hummingbird we saw during the holidays is still at my in-laws’! What a treat! Had a pair of these sweet dark-eyed juncos stop by this morning! They hung out in the crape myrtles for a few minutes, then headed to the front yard, where they got a drink in the birdbath before moving on. 😍 When you notice a sparrowlike bird that isn’t a sparrow! This cutie is a Dickcissel, which “wanders during migration and is sometimes found out-of-place among flocks of House Sparrows.” This one was solo, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see it later today with our resident sparrows. A first-time yard visitor this afternoon! Hermit thrush
