First Visit: Viewing the Beauty of Nature at Climbers Run Preserve in Lancaster County, PA
Enjoy the beauty of birds and the tranquility of flowing waters in this video taken at Climbers Run Preserve. My first visit to this property was short, but I was thrilled to see their bird- feeding station being used by so many species! One of the trails is along Climbers Run which is a beautiful stream with many rocks creating small waterfalls. Watch to the end to hear how peaceful it is at this location!

High-Speed Chase: Sharp-Shinned Hawk vs. Blue Jay
Просмотров 357 часов назад
While enjoying the solitude of Fleetwood Pond at Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge in Milton, Delaware with many Great Blue Herons patiently waiting for a fish to eat, I was startled by a Blue Jay calling out loudly. As I turned to look in the direction of the call, I saw a Sharp-shinned Hawk in hot pursuit of the Blue Jay. I hope you enjoy watching this video as you learn about some of the r...
Forest Phantoms: The Mysterious Brown Creeper
Просмотров 6916 часов назад
It’s Halloween, so I thought it appropriate to show you a fascinating bird I encountered recently at Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes, Delaware. Although many birds can be heard before being seen, this one rarely calls out. It takes patience and a sharp eye to see one in action. The brown creeper is quite small, measuring about 5 inches (12-13 cm) in length with a wingspan of about 7-8 inches ...

    I haven't seen a ruby-crowned Kinglet yet, although my other bird watcher friends have. I live in a hardwood forest area; not many conifers here.

    • @Wondering_About_Nature
      @Wondering_About_Nature 23 дня назад

      Thanks for the comment. I love migration when we have birds coming through for just a short period. Being along the Atlantic Coast, we sometimes get birds that have flown off course due to storms. The kinglets are so busy when feeding, but this one landed right in front of me, so I was glad I had my camera ready and didn't have to move. They are usually quick to fly away when they sense a threat (although obviously, I wouldn't really be a threat!) As for their call, I finally am able to recognize it when I hear it. Some year-round birds are much easier to recognize for me, but until these come to the area, I almost forget what they sound like! Have a great day.

      They will soon migrate for the winter months. It's always exciting when they first arrive with their sounds of laughter. Recently, I encountered a youngster begging next to one of the parents. It's amazing to think of how far many birds fly for migration especially on their first year! Glad you enjoyed the video.
