Meet the bullfinch! With its striking colors and robust beak, this avian gentleman adds a pop of vibrance to any scene. Fun fact: Bullfinches have a soft spot for fruit, and their diet often includes berries and seeds. 🐦🍇

The hairy woodpecker may look small, but it packs a powerful punch! 🥊 With its strong beak, this bird can excavate deep holes in trees, up to three times its body length, in search of insects.

Brown-capped rosy-finches are remarkable: they are known for their ability to survive in extreme cold and high-elevation environments. They brave the harsh conditions with their warm plumage and sturdy build. ❄️🐦

According to BTO a max clutch of ten eggs is typical for blue tit. This clutch of 15 eggs is definitely a record for me!

They may be tiny, but mountain chickadees still brave the cold mountain forests with their fluffy feathers and energetic spirit. 🐦❄️

Introducing the indigo bunting! Fun fact: The vibrant blue color of their feathers is not due to pigments but is actually a result of light scattering. Nature's own optical illusion! ✨🐦 Neat, right?
