Adorable Northern Flicker At Our Bird Bath On Cape Cod

This was the cutest photograph of this Northern Flicker at our bird bath here on Cape Cod. He was just sitting there, getting a drink of water and I happened to have my camera ready so I clicked away. He looks like he’s talking to someone.

He almost looks like a baby, but I think he is mature.

Cute photograph, don’t you think? His coloring is just beautiful!

Eastern Kingbird At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod

I was so excited when I saw this Eastern Kingbird at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary on Cape Cod. I had never seen one before. It was flitting from tree to tree on the bay side of Tri-Island. It landed just long enough for me to take  a photograph.

The Eastern Kingbird has slate-colored back and wings with a black head. It is about 8″ long. It likes to perch on top of trees which is where we saw it again on top of a dead tree by Goose Pond.

They will stay around all summer, so maybe you will ger lucky and see it there too!
