This year I hope to put more native plants and trees in my landscape. It’s so important to our native flora & fauna.
This is an Allegheny Serviceberry I photographed when I was out looking for migratory birds. The blooms remind me of fairies.

"Allegheny serviceberry is a small native understory tree with four-season interest. The early white spring flowers, outstanding orange-red fall color, and striking gray bark make it a lovely specimen for any landscape. The edible purplish-black fruit in late summer is attractive to many birds.”

A first for me, and of all places, spotted at the top of my pear tree. Here one minute, and gone the next. A tiny lovely bird.

#nashvillewarbler #birdmigration
"The Nashville Warbler is a boisterous yellow songster with a striking, big-eyed look thanks to a white eyering that contrasts sharply with its gray hood. Nashville Warblers are fun to watch as they teeter on the ends of leaves and branches searching for food. Despite their name, Nashville Warblers are only found in Tennessee during migration. Look for them in shrubby tangles and regrowing forests—a habitat preference that has helped this species remain fairly common even as other songbirds have declined in number.
Nashville Warblers don't breed anywhere near Nashville, Tennessee, although they do migrate through. The species got its name because Nashville was where Alexander Wilson first saw it, in 1811, and went on to name it."

Non-native phragmites, or “Common Reed”, is an invasive plant introduced from Europe in the 1800's. My guess is this is the invasive form.

Congratulations to this lovely dancer. We so wish we could have seen you in person! Although we couldn’t be there for the live performances (Covid), I can’t wait for the virtual. #dancer #ballet #theater
Eastern Bluebird
Cape Elizabeth, ME 2.26.2021
© 2021, sarah beard buckley
"Most of the country drives during an eastern North American summer will turn up a few Eastern Bluebirds sitting on telephone wires or perched atop a nest box, calling out in a short, wavering voice or abruptly dropping to the ground after an insect. Marvelous birds to capture in your binoculars, male Eastern Bluebirds are a brilliant royal blue on the back and head, and warm red-brown on the breast. Blue tinges in the wings and tail give the grayer females an elegant look.
This species may visit backyards if food is offered. It doesn't often come to feeders, unless you have feeders that provide mealworms. Find out more about what this bird likes to eat and what feeder is best by using the Project FeederWatch Common Feeder Birds bird list. #easternbluebird #birdsofinstagram #birdphotography #getoutside #maine #mainephotography #portlandmaine #igersmaine #canonusa #canon100400ii
Eastern Bluebirds are a great prospect for nest boxes if you have the space to put one up in your yard, and if your yard isn’t too hemmed in by trees or houses. Consider putting up a nest box to attract a breeding pair. Make sure you put it up well before breeding season. Attach a guard to keep predators from raiding eggs and young. Find out more about nest boxes on All About Birdhouses, where you'll find plans for building a nest box of the appropriate size for Eastern Bluebird."

2020 was quite a bit different than usual for all of us. The wild birds and I became particularly close friends. Nature was my reprieve from all of the stress and uncertainty many of us experienced and still do. What a year. That being said, I am very fortunate & grateful for what I have. My family, Maine & the ability go through this with hardship but still being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel all while realizing not everyone has been so lucky. Here’s hoping for a better 2021, for all of us - especially those who are suffering. I wish you all a better New Year ! #maine #portlandme #mainephotographer #mainelife #grateful #lovemaine #birdsbirdsbirds #birdsofinstagram #covidlife #2020
