Nature people! Please helps us by donating (whatever you can) to our Poison Free Belize Educational Campaign! We are almost at 2 grand and in this first phase we are asking for $6,000 USD, so every cent counts! Link: gofund.me/5e442bf9 #birds #birdsofprey #raptors #birding 🪶

Barn Owls are one of the species that suffer the most rodenticide poisoning. We’re killing the best weapon we have against rodents w/ our inability to use proper pest control management. Help us change that by donating to our campaign #birds #birdsofprey #ratpoisoniswildlifepoison gofund.me/5e442bf9

Hey people!!! Here is the image of our campaign! Please consider donating to our cause so we can educate the public about the dangers of rat poison! #birds #birdsofprey #raptors 🪶 gofund.me/5e442bf9

Funny how suddenly you start voicing your disagreements with your male friends, coworkers, etc.. and according to them you are antagonizing everything they say… no dudes, I was just quite before, now my inner monologue is not staying in my head…

Had a date with gorgeous here yesterday afternoon and she delivered! Collared forest-falcon (Micrastur semitorquatus) #raptors #birdsofprey #birds 🪶

Omfgggg!! Just saw a Peregrine again thanks to a very scared Eared Dove that was eyeing it from the middle of the road… same general area and Im still pissed that they wont fly by my window so I can take pics! #birding #birds #peregrinefalcon #Colombia 🪶

Second time today that I have to endure christian music… first during my hair appt and know on my ride back home… still not as bad as reggaeton..

Omg I just saw a freaking Peregrine Falcon flying not 30 yards above my head! She looked massive!!! Also super excited to see they are still here and prob packing some weight for their travel north! #PeregrineFalcon #Birds #Bogota #Colombia

Welp, the cough turned into a full out bronchitis, so im on house arrest and on several drugs for a while!

So, got asked to change seats cause apparently you’re entitled to demand people change seats if your kid is not by your side… which i dont mind but today i was not being graceful but I still did it… started coughing and said parent got all worked up and was demanding me to change seats

Finally got my hands on my new baby!!!

Just like that seven weeks of field work in Wisconsin are over. Today I head back to Colombia and hopefully to the next adventure! Also Im coughing like crazy so I had to ask for a mask… it looks like a have a tighty-whitey covering my face.. boy do I look hot 🙄

While scouting for backpacked Golden Eagles I encounter this redtail just chilling on its perch… 🪶 #birds #birdsofprey #raptors

Yesterday I got what looks like a resight of a backpacked eagle… im gonna let you guys be the judge of that… 🪶🧪 #birds #birdifprey #raptors #womeninraptorresearch #womeninstem

Happy Superb Owl Sunday!!! #birds #owls #SuperbOwl

Each transmitter should last 6-8 years giving us valuable information on migration as well as their daily movements. We make sure each backpack is fitted correctly so it won’t interfere with how they move. 🪶#raptorresearch #goldeneagle

More information about this 32 yo eagle!!! This is the non profit im helping with this project, River Valley Raptors are the north team of the bigger team that the Raptor Resource Project manages for this project. Give them some live by following them! @rivervalleyraptors.bsky.social 🪶🧪 #birds

We trapped this 32 yo male Golden Eagle banded back in Oct 1992 in Ashfield, PA. He is a force of nature coming at a live turkey in our bow nets. Now he has a GPS transmitter that is going to show us his migration and hopefully how much longer he lives! #womeninraptorresearch #birds #womeninSTEM 🪶🧪

We got to see this juvie Goldie kiting for a bit… the best I could do with the binos and my cel #birds #birdsofprey #womeninraptorresearch #womeninstem 🪶
