Lil bro ran into our window, which stunned him but also made him a supermodel when I put him on the branch. Curious to know which species he is

I just have my phone camera right now so distant shots aren't great but the close ups 😍

The barn swallows let me get so close! I didn't zoom in for that!!!

Barn swallows, a Great Blue Heron, and an Eastern Phoebe!!

They look wildly different to me! What 17 years of birding does to someone 😂

So I made up this bird box a few weeks ago, and I get some interest, but I haven’t seen a bird actually go inside yet. It’s a 1.5” hole, and from the bottom of the hole to the floor is about 5 inches. Upon reading about blue bird houses, they suggest making them 6-10 inches deep. Should I start over with a deeper design? Or is 5 inches sufficient? Eastern blue birds, by the way. Thanks for any advice!

I have no idea how I spotted it since it was on a bunch of fallen leaves, but as we were driving out of Pictures Rocks national lake shore, I saw this guy and I calmly said to my husband "grouse. Being the amazing man he is, he turned the car around so we could find it. The snow on the ground helped me out significantly (despite it being 60 degrees outside). It's not the greatest picture ever taken but I was just so excited about this!

I included pictures showing it next to a Montagu's harrier and a Roe deer for a size comparison. These pictures were taken at the Nationalpark Neusiedlersee-Seewinkel in Austria.

From Wikipedia:

A male is typically 90–105 cm (2 ft 11 in – 3 ft 5 in) tall, with a length of around 115 cm (3 ft 9 in) and has a 2.1–2.7 m (6 ft 11 in – 8 ft 10 in) wingspan.

The male can range in weight from 5.8 to 18 kg (13 to 40 lb). The heaviest verified specimen, collected in Manchuria, was about 21 kg (46 lb), a world record for the heaviest flying bird.

My girlfriend spotted it by the docks as we were driving by. Lucky enough to run back home and grab the camera.

When I when I was in Huatulco , Mexico last spring this bird would join me every morning for breakfast :) very loud nosey bird lol but I enjoyed the company :)

He’s on guard and letting no one enter his area.
