Feeling patriotic: red, white and blue birds


A red-breasted sapsucker drills holes in the trunk of a tree on a hillside near Elkton in rural western Oregon on Tuesday, Feb. 15, 2022. Sapsuckers drill rows of shallow wells in shrubs and trees, and then lick up the sap with their brush-tipped tongues. 

An adult bald eagle perches in a tree high on a ridge overlooking the Umpqua River in southwestern Oregon. Bald eagles are considered the largest birds of prey in North America with the average female bald eagle being a few ounces heaver than the next largest raptor.
