#Birds #AlbertaBirds #Mammals Wilsons Phalaropes I frequently see spinning away on ponds and sloughs, but Red-necked I rarely see and usually at a distance, this loner was 10 feet from pavement in a tiny pond...Sora, are just great hiders usually and the twins..well they're stinkin cute!

This weekend I came across these beautiful little domest Cayuga ducklings that someone abandoned by the pond in Indian Boundary Park. Fortunately volunteers from Chicago Bird Collision Monitors were able to come out and rescue them. #birds #PetsAreNotDisposable #ChicagoParks

What with the spring, the rain, and the long weekend - seems a perfect time to celebrate the drakes of Alberta. Right now, this province is a very ducky place! #birds

Thanks for capturing this Dana!

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #FeatheredFemmes, captures featuring the beauty of any female bird. The alt is #Funnies, any comical capture of a bird. These bald eagles ( one, possibly the female, appears to be talking in the ear of the other😊) were seen at the National Aviary here in Pittsburgh, PA.

May 9 is World Migratory Bird Day, honoring the feathered warriors who travel thousands of miles from wintering grounds in the south to their breeding grounds in the north. The longest migration? The Arctic Tern's flight from Antarctica to the Arctic breeding grounds is ~22,000-30,000 miles.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #photogenic — birds you find to be great to snap. Prothonotary Warbler, Kansas 2025 #Birds #NaturePhotography #Nature #Wildlife #NatureCommunity #Photography #BirdPhotography #BirdWatching #Warblers #FlyoverCountry

Made a trip to the east side to see if I could find more migratory birds and got another cool warbler. The Black and white warbler. 📷 #birds #warblers #photo #photography

This Yellow-crowned Night Heron was sitting in the reeds underneath the edge of a tiny dock/viewing platform, so close I almost couldn't get my camera to focus on it. #birds

Took an hour-long drive to Point Pelee, with a stop in Caldwell to gas up for the week. Light wasn’t great for birding. Many smaller birds were high up in the canopy, I didn’t get as many close-up shotsbefore leaving. I saw my two favorites—yellow warbler and the prothonotary warbler. #birds

It's only 6pm Pacific so I want to get this shot posted for #TwoSpeciesTuesday! I did not see it until I looked on the laptop. A Great Blue Heron on a nest and a Rufous Hummingbird on a branch. Big and little! #birds #photography #ECK

Today my Bird of the Day is the Northern Shoveler. One of my personal favorite ducks. #itsabird 🪶

Your voices have been heard! The vote has been pulled for today. Thousands of calls were placed to urge representatives to vote NO on this pro-extinction bill - HR 1897. This is a massive win for endangered species & wildlife BUT it could come back again so we must keep thr pressure on.

“One of the main themes I really wanted to push is the relationships between native Hawaiian forest birds and the native forests … and I'd like that to help influence maybe some of this discussions or actions that they could do to help conservation for the birds,” he said. #Birds #Manu #HawaiiBirds
