Iris is recognized as the world's oldest known living Osprey at likely 30 years old this year. She has nested annually in Montana's Hellgate Canyon along the Clark Fork River since 1999. Today, she landed on her nest at 6:52 am MDT. Welcome home, Iris!

This set of a video and pictures was from around 4 weeks old. Mom was feeding one of the chicks when something flew a little too close. Mom kept her eye on it and puffed up. So lucky I got to watch this family and see cool moments like this.🪶

Well then!! 👀 Clearly Turkey vultures can read 😁 That’s the first one I’ve seen land on the calibrated fence! Let me do the calculations… It’s BIG! A couple have been flying low just past the fence lately. The largest bird to land on the fence, by a long shot! #birds

Interrupting the usual to bring you my cat, Apple. Dont tell my 3 year old i said "my" cat its actually HER cat.

Mockingbirds are state birds in many states because they are cute and their singing makes people stop and listen, it is so varied. I've actually stood and listened and been enchanted by their songs. #BirdOfTheDay #songbirds #birds #naturephotography
