BIRD TALES
Late summer is generally slow here in Connecticut in terms of bird photography. One exception, however, would be the sunflower fields and the abundant goldfinches that feed on them. I stood for 30 minutes or more waiting for this little guy to land on the flower.

Bells Bend Park in Nashville, Tennessee, has bountiful opportunities for viewing wildlife. While on an early morning summer walk, I observed some incredible bird activity. A male blue grosbeak with an insect let out repeated metallic calls, alarming his neighbors. An orchard oriole pair came to investigate the disturbance. Just as the three birds landed on the same stalk, I captured this image with my Nikon D500 camera and a Sigma 150-600 mm lens. Being in the right place at the right time to witness this feather frenzy was truly a magical moment and one that I will always remember.

Sense or Nonsense? - Why some birds can taste and smell - but others can't
Does a porcelain berry taste like a blueberry to a gray catbird? Does a block of lard smell like frying bacon to a northern flicker? The short answer is no. While some avian species do have a well-adapted sense of taste or smell, they can't distinguish between flavors and odors the way humans can. They're not picking up every ingredient in the suet you put out, says José RamÃrez-Garofalo, an ornithology researcher at Rutgers University in New Jersey and the director of Freshkills Biological Station in Staten Island, New York.
