A family of Canada Jays hung around for three weeks prepping the young for survival. The young still asked to be fed even when they obviously gathered their own food. Very nurturing parents

Red-Necked Grebe
This grebe was building a nest and calling after each addition the nest. It's quite late in June. There has been a mating pair on this pond for many years but I have only seen one grebe this year.

Yellow-bellied Sapsucker Hugging a Birch Limb
Not sure why they do this but it's not the first I see behaving this way.

Raven with filleted fish carcass
It was too heavy for the raven to fly away with although it tried repeatedly.

Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
Busy little fellow. As I approached the tree he left. I sat on a bench 6 feet away and waited. He returned 10 minutes later and proceeded to continue his project which had increased considerably in size since the day before.
