Sharpshinned are smaller than coopers. From the angle in the photo they would be similar, with the barred tail. That’s why I mentioned size.🇨🇦

Not a Redtail. Without size and location could be a sharpshinned or coopers.🇨🇦or something else…

Nice pic. More of a painting than a moon pic. What lens if you don’t mind me asking.🇨🇦

Yup, two of them. Indoors for the winter. One still in bloom

Thanks Rosemary. He has his moments.

Only 90%? You’re lucky!

See my dm. The care home won’t give out information. No funeral home listed.

Yup! I have two Nikon d7500s with a 150-600, 18-400, 18-250, 70-300, and a 35mm f1.8. I love DSLRs. I also have a D3500, surprisingly good camera.
Mirrorless cameras aren’t nearly as good at taking bird pics. Just my opinion. I own 3 Sony mirrorless which I enjoy as well. Not for birding.

I think that’s it. Rudbeckia looks about right. Echinaceas and Rudbeckia are both in my garden and essentially interchangeable. Basically daisies with really colorful flowers. And they flower all summer. What a team of sleuths.

Look up Coneflower. There are ten or more species of these. Latin name Echinacea. Just looks so familiar. Have a great day Rosemary.

The flower looks very much like the Echinaceas that bloomed in my garden all summer. Like a daisy but with great colours. The Brugmanxias will lose their leaves and look very sparse soon. But, until then…🇨🇦

Is that an Echinacea? All just about gone here in Toronto. But my Brugmanxias are indoors for the winter and flowering.

There are few words to describe Trump. Cunt is not one of them, being a perfectly decent word. Nor is pig, asshole, dick, prick, and a whole bunch more mere words. This man, if such it is, is an almost indescribable lump of nastiness. 🇨🇦 Diarrhea in a baggy suit describes it for me.
