The mama tapir came by last night looking for me. Then she checked to see if my car was there. ☹️ I guess I can never leave the house. @casabentbill.bsky.social #costarica #tapirs #bairdstapir

Finally! My neighborhood Ocelot is a sneaky one and I haven't been able to get a photo of it until tonight. At @casabentbill.bsky.social #cats #ocelot #nature #costarica

Completely agree with Sophie on this subject! AI right now is art theft no matter how you dress it up. It’s also unethical, in my opinion that is

Incredible image, Glen!

#BirdoftheDay is #birdonawire x2 This male and female Black-headed Trogon were taking a break from digging out their nest cavity and posed for me. #CostaRica #birds #nature

I'm not sure if I'm legally allowed to post two #birdoftheday posts for #birdonawire But here's a closer view of the male Black-headed Trogon, showing his darker head and iridescent back. #CostaRica #birds #trogon #nature

Ocellated Antbirds are one of the shyest Costa Rican antbirds and they very seldom get close. But there were a few family groups this morning with a bunch of hungry young birds and the adults were busy showing them how to hunt for insects flushed by the army ants. #birds #nature At Tapir Valley

To all of my BlueSky friends, I don't really pitch or sell things on this platform, but I want to share this fundraiser. I've spent some time in the Wayuu community and the people there are lovely and warm. But the children are at a severe disadvantage. gofund.me/8e4f56eb2

Another pic of the Ginger Bandit in his natural habitat 🐈. In all honesty I could forgive this little rascal anything 🥰. Have a great evening everyone and stay safe out there 🙏 #catsofbluesky

Another typical pose for my cat: sitting in my mum’s lap 🐈 😻 #catsofbluesky

#ToucanoftheDay This Keel-billed Toucan was on the prowl for a snack at @casabentbill.bsky.social #CostaRica #birds #toucans #nature

Hello! My name is Dirx and while I don't post new art very often, I do enjoy #drawing, mostly #birds, #fanart, and #Gallifreyan.

The first of the a-z monster list!! The mighty Aarakocra, on the wing. This particular one is based on a Philippine eagle. This was a lot of work and a lot of studying, but I'm so happy with how it turned out. Soooo many feathers, but totally worth all the effort <3 more info below

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day! I'm Anna, an author/illustrator from the PNW. I'm a fan of patterns, nature and loveable characters-all culminating in this ode to the undergrowth! 🍄[email protected] 🪲annadaviscourt.com #Kidlitpostcard #kidlitartpostcardday #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration

Bananas came by this evening and enjoyed our garden. I had a banana for him but I guess he was still hungry. As you can see here, he has a huge number of scars on his body. He showed up a few days ago with terrible cuts that he had gotten from a fight with another tapir. #tapirs #costarica

Watercolour painting of a kitten called Holly! One of my favourite paintings. She looks so vulnerable. #kittens #cats #catsofbluesky #petportraits #tunatuesday #art #watercolours #paintings

I realized I’ve been unfairly favoring ginger cows this Bovember, so here is a lovely brunette to make up for it. #Bovember #cows #cowart #bovineart #ungulates #drawing #sketching #sketchbook #coloredpencils #prismacolors #animalart #animalillustration #art #illustration #critterart

I just got this as well, report it and do not click the link!

One of my favorite things about the tropical dry forests of Guanacaste are the winter visiting Scissor-tailed Flycatchers. They're later than a lot of other N American migrants, but they're starting to show up in good numbers now. When it gets too wet in Bijagua, I just head down to the sun. #birds
