Went out to the backyard to check on which #birds are about. Lots of hummingbirds but no seed eaters. Something must be keeping them away. Yes, talking about you, Gary! Must be #FootUpFriday Cooper’s hawk

This is overriding a ballot initiative approved by voters.

We found a 4th egg in #kakapo Waikawa's nest yesterday and found it was fertile. Waikawa has maintained her incredible 100% fertility record: 5 clutches of 4 fertile eggs in 4 breeding seasons. That's unmatched by any other kākāpō. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds

Preparing for our West Africa trip I had been very excited about seeing Hamerkops, and even after the several-hundredth one we saw, I still took way too many pictures. Such a strange looking creature! #birding

Kittywampus says hello and happy #Caturday from his natural habitat, the gravitational singularity at the heart of the laundry basket.

I am terrible at compressing giant image files for social media and keeping quality intact, but wanted to share this comically small short-eared owl harassing this bald eagle. The scruffy looking eagle was trying to land but oh noooo said the small #bird enforcement officer. 1/2

Friendly reminder- Valentine’s Day is one week away. 💕 Also, apparently nesting season is happening soon. 🪶 🙈

SPOT THE IMPOSTER 🦉🔍 The #SuperbOwl is back, and the crowd goes wild! 🏈 Don't give a hoot about football? Don't worry, we've got you covered. If there is one thing we can all agree on, it's a love for raptors (you thought we were going to say sports, didn't you).

Usually, when you find wildlife tracks, the wildlife is long gone and far from sight. Sometimes, during our Wood Turtle surveys, we get lucky and tracks lead right to a turtle. #OrianneSociety #Turtle #WoodTurtle #Glyptemysinsculpta #TurtleConservation #WildlifeConservation

I don't like the sound of this.

Look at these cuties!!! Those eyes! Those ears! 😍 #Primates

You know.... I really don't think my in-laws have ever liked me. Their actions never match their words. Oh well, their loss!

Javier, our CEO, wanted to check in with everybody. He hopes you're doing alright. If not, you're welcome to take a few deep breaths with him and think of something you're looking forward to. Javi is looking forward to the Bad Bunny halftime show ❤️

I sincerely hope that JD Vance gets this reaction every single place he goes.

BREAKING: New reaction from Leader Jeffries to the racist Trump video: "This disgusting video posted by the so-called president was done intentionally. Fuck Donald Trump and his vile, racist, and malignant behavior. This guy is an unhinged bottom feeder."

We heard they're playing football in the middle of a Bad Bunny (Grammy winner) concert this weekend. As such, here's some pictures of the 2 bats endemic to Puerto Rico: 🦇 Red fig-eating bat (pc: Jose Sepulveda/ iNaturalist) 🦇 Puerto Rican mustached bat (pc: dalizcasablanca/ iNaturalist)

Out of all the fish in the sea… you’re the one for me 😉 Tag or share a #Valentine with someone who makes your heart swim.

What could you and a puma have in common? Leptospirosis! A bacterial pathogen, the Leptospira bacteria rarely cause direct fatalities, but they do reduce general fitness and immune function, strain organs, and threaten long-term population survival.

Timeline cleanse. I took this on my flight home from Germany this past Fall. Oh how I could use another vacation right now! If you could go anywhere- where would you fly off to today?

🏈🥑 On #SuperBowlSunday more people in the U.S. eat avocados than any other day. To produce all that guac, the industry is scarfing up swaths of Mexican forest. Join us in urging U.S. grocers to adopt avocado-sourcing policies that prevent #deforestation ➡️ bit.ly/4tlE1oZ
