of European woodlands and gar-
dens, the Blue Tit is related to North
America’s chickadees and titmice.

of Europe.

Photographed by: Wayne Starr
with a BirdCam 2.0.
About the bird: These birds
are talented mimics, meaning they
imitate the sounds of other birds, just
like mockingbirds and catbirds.
Range: Fairly common in summer
throughout eastern two-thirds
of U.S.; year-round resident in
southern U.S.
About the photo: Thrashers
sometimes visit backyard feeding
stations for seed scattered on the
ground.

About the bird: The Bullock’s
Oriole was once lumped together with
the Baltimore Oriole as a single
species: Northern Oriole.
Range: Summers in western one-
third of U.S., north into Canada.
About the photo: Placing a Bird-
Cam near a birdbath can be a great
way to capture multiple species in one
image. Here, a Bullock’s Oriole takes a
dip with a Western Bluebird.
Photographed by: Jeff with a
BirdCam (original).
