Eastern Kingbird: Kennebunk, Maine, July 2025 — If you follow my work (play 🙂 you have seen this Eastern Kingbird before. It has taken the territory that belonged to an Eastern Phoebe for many years along one of our marsh paths. This is just (to my eye) a pretty picture. I like the bird. I like the pose. I really like the weathered wood of the stump and its bold form, and I like the background of mottled brown and green. It does not say much about anything, but it is pretty. And maybe that’s enough.
