I wasn't really interested in birds when I was younger but then I moved to Tokyo for 8 years where the only birds (and pretty much the only wildlife) were crows, sparrows, and pigeons. When I moved back to Canada, about a year ago, I suddenly found myself fascinated with nature and wildlife (I think it's a reaction to having none around for so long). So I've been taking a lot of nature walks and hikes and encountering a lot of beautiful and interesting looking birds, but unfortunately I usually don't know what their called.

The ones I do know the names of that I've seen around are:
- Bald Eagles, we have A LOT of these around here and I've seen quite a few juveniles this summer.
- Blue Heron
- American Kestrel
- Steller's Jay
- and some hummingbirds that feed at the flowers behind my place.
