Vancouver Island, Canada. This little gaffer flew into our window and I found him on the ground. I carefully placed him into one of our hanging baskets (we have cats). It took at least an hour before it finally flew off.

Sometimes I envy the people living in “bird regions” (The Americas, Africa, SE-Asia, Oceania). A rare sad EU moment.

I enjoy seeing these kinglets.

Kinglets are super cute bouncing around the bushes and have quite a loud song for their size. I was happy to be able to save this one and see it up close. Never would have been able to catch a close-up otherwise.

Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like “Northern Idaho, June 2023” or even “North-Western US, June 2023” suffices.
