Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

Why's it your favourite ☺️? I like your pic in the comments of it munching a berry!

Fancy hair, neat eye mask, their feathers look "soft" in a way I can't really explain, and I'm always impressed at how vibrant their colouration is in the sun. Plus the fact that we only have them up here for a few months of the year really makes seeing them feel special.
