Enjoying this series of short birding videos.

This series of videos on birds is produced by a lady in Newfoundland. They are exceptionally well done as well as informative.

Her name is Lesley (LesleytheBirdNerd) and the site has videos on several species but she focuses mostly on Chickadees and Blue Jays.

Check out these which I felt were particularly interesting (Chickadees are among my favorite birds):

10 Fun Facts About Chickadees | Smart, Tough, & Friendly

A Day in the Life of a Blue Jay Family | Raising Babies ( A Short Film)

My Adorable Nuthatch Buddies - The Birds & Me (Slow Motion)

It's adorable how she gives her regular visitors individual names!

but haven't seen them; I'm pre-occupied with ospreys. Glad you're enjoying your new area.
