Here is a list of unique birds. Which you should know.

Since I don't live near Alberta, the only Canadian wildlife we see are your migrating geese.  They stop here in the spring on their trek south and march in single file through town leaving goose droppings everywhere.  It's their version of Spring Break.

The rest of the year, we have frequent visits from barn owls, eagles, hawks, falcons, hummingbirds, orioles, parrots, finches, sparrows, ravens, swallows, doves, blue jays & mocking birds who imitate car alarms (no joke).

We briefly had a visiting peacock who ran away from home.  He stayed with us for a while and then one day decided to go home. Peacocks are beautiful but VERY noisy.  I don't recommend them as pets.

We also have bats but that's another story...

I loved seeing them! I'm a birdwatcher, and here are some birds I photographed at my house (Austin, Texas):

Yellow-Rumped Warbler

Roadrunner

Black-Chinned Hummingbird

Black-Crested Titmouse looking in my kitchen window

Golden-Fronted Woodpecker

Painted Bunting
