Face-off at the feeder! The male northern cardinal was hoarding the feeder, but this female hairy woodpecker put him in his place with a literal tongue-lashing!

Ce cardinal rouge male intimidait les autres oiseaux au mangeoire, mais cette pic chevelu l'a vite remis à sa place!

I absolutely love the background and contrast with this Snowy Owl (Harfang des Neiges en français). Photo taken by my partner Annie (whose camera I borrow :) Jan 5, 2025 in Kanata, Ontario.
Nikon D850, Sigma 300-800 at 800mm f/11 1/2000s ISO 400. Processed in LR to remove a power line in the background.

I'm still trying to take decent pictures of the Common Goldeneye (Garrot à oeil d'or en français) that can be found nearby; they're always way out on the water, and backlit. Even with a tripod and 800mm lens, they always seem to be out of focus.
In this photo, I decided to boost the saturation (a lot) to get the colors of sunset (despite the photo being taken mid-day)

Taken with Nikon D850 and Sigma 300-800 at 800mm f/10 1/2000s ISO 500. Processed in darkroom on linux.

It's always a pleasure to show up to a park, camera in hand, and immediately find a bird on display! This Hairy Woodpecker (Pic Chevelu en français) was hammering away at this maple tree.
