There was a lot of adorable duck walking yesterday. Since it was a whopping 59F lots of ppl walking.Since these are smart #ducks they would retreat every time someone would come around. Frenchy has her eating abilities down(tilts her head bc of her bill issue). #MallardMonday #birds #birdphotography

The BIG hawk kept flying over valentine's day. There was a lot of back&forth on the ice. Maybe the hawk was looking for a romantic meal for his lady lol. Not my friends! Power in numbers! They work well together. #Canadiangeese help too! #MallardMonday #AmericanBirdingPodcast #Birds #Audubon

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BirdButts. A male Purple Finch on the #BrucePeninsula, Ontario. #EastCoastKin #photography #birds #nature #wildlife #BruceCounty

It’s a bit wet but don’t tell Lorna the sheep are in my office having toast. I blame Squirrel

Time for a short break while we go to the cinema to watch 'Crime 101', I will catch up with #BirdOfTheDay once we get back home. Enjoy your Sunday folks. #birds #EastCoastKin.#ukbirding #CanonR5Mkii #photography

Happy Valenswine's Day! If you are someone who hates Valentine's Day, you can always use the day to celebrate our pig friends instead. This was our official Valenswine's card this year featuring Huey and Louie.

Insects in the #Amazon are finally getting recognized 🙌 👏 #bees #Insects www.ecoticias.com/en/for-the-f...

Can you imagine being 410lbs, stuck in a small drain& cold. So scary. This poor #manatee got some help thankfully. Wonderful humans worked hours to get him or her out. #sealife #oceans #manateerescue #weatherchannel Source: The Weather Channel share.google/E4W2vsYQ3eVu...

Despite one of our hens trying to run away last night, one of the cats presenting with a UTI, and the roosters getting into a brawl this morning, we are ready for our annual Val-hen-tine's fundraiser tomorrow. 💕🐓 #valentines #rescue #sanctuary #sanctuarylife #starlandsanctuary

Another great mosh pit of #ducks. James was very personable today. #Canadiangeese #waterfowl #birds #AmericanBirdingPodcast #Audubon #birdphotography #lightsoutformigratorybirds The sun really perked them up!

You can really appreciate James Vander-Beaks "hair" in this clip. #MallardMonday #ducks #waterfowl #Canadiangeese #AmericanBirdingPodcast #Lightsoutformigratorybirds #Birdsoftheworld #Audubon #birds #nature

I'm not sure why #ducks walking is one of the cutest things on this planet but there was some adorable walking today ☺️. A mosh pit of #waterfowl is the best too! They were happy it was sunny. Cold but sun makes everything better! #MallardMonday #Canadiangeese #Birdphotography #birds #Audubon

Feat. James Vander-Beak & Frenchy. I thought something was wrong w/Jame's eye. He's been w/us at this park for 8yrs. He was 1 when I met him. He's not only special bc he has the world's best "hair" out of any #ducks but he is my heart. #MallardMonday #birds #Audubon #BirdsOfTheWorld #Canadiangeese

When all the #ducks greet me w/a nice round of "quacks" it's great. I was far away so my voice is a lot louder than theirs but if your volume is up you'll hear them ALL saying hi back. #Waterfowl wild or domestic definitely know voices no question #lightsoutformigratorybirds #AmericanBirdingPodcast

Adorable day w/ "James Vander-Beak". I'm very sad about the human JVB of Dawson's Creek passing yest. I named James the #duck that bc at the time in 2018 human James had really great hair&was well. Duck JVB reminded me of him (that's a big compliment!). #MallardMonday #birds #AmericanBirdingPodcast

Two days in a row of hitting both #BirdOfTheDay themes in one image! Today's main theme is #Birds&Bugs (any bird and bug in one capture) and the alt theme is #EverydayBirds (birds you see often). Here's one of my backyard Purple Finches with what looks like a click beetle(?). #birds #photography

EU leaders are having a cosy gettogether in a Belgian castle to supposedly talk about competitiveness But they're dancing to the tune of Trump’s deregulation agenda and allowing greedy multinationals to get rich from the pollution of our food, rivers and homes Read our comment below 👇 #EUCO

Why does this keep happening!? It's simply not acceptable.

Love this song from John Denver who is sorely missed! I always felt that John Denver was way ahead of us all. He was environmentally friendly and was aware of how important it is to take care of planet earth! youtu.be/TyJRsp5t9mA?...

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity. America deserves better.

James Vander-Beak was adorable this morning as usual 😍. I'm trying to keep feed off the ice bc the deer won't stop walking on it! That worries me so much. #MallardMonday #ducks #waterfowl #Canadiangeese #birds #birdsoftheworld #Audubon #AmericanBirdingPodcast #greenwingedteal #birdphotography

Wednesday! Hump Day! Getting up and over will be a snap. Affirmation Coyote will lead the way.

The coffee places Mom knows of don't allow dogs inside & it's cold out. After some searching, Good news, we found a few small shops that do allow dogs inside for pupcups. They're a bit further, but we will try those very soon instead of Starbucks. Our ears are open and we hear you. #dogsofbluesky

Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

🪶 Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has today's alt #BirdOfTheDay theme of #blue, so here's a cold bluebird from a week or two ago. #birds #photography

I had to ck on these fine ppl🦆earlier than usual. They seemed to be in a good mood. No humans around or hawks as of now. #MallardMonday #waterfowl #birds #ducks #birdsoftheworld #lightsoutformigratorybirds #Audubon #birdphotography

Frankie is in the cart, waiting for someone to pull her to projectforawesome.com/videos/proje... so she can vote for Merrymac to have a shot at @projectforawesome.com 2026! Dudley is… adorable but not helping.

My friends had a 59F day! They had to really climb up some snow mountains to eat but they made it. Stuff is melting but not enough. Least they had a break from the freezing temps. James Vander-Beak was glad his hair wasn't frozen! #MallardMonday #ducks #birds #lightsoutformigratorybirds #Audubon

I wasn't going to post this bc the videos scattered (&there is deer poo all over the frozen lake which gives me anxiety for the deer) however, Mr Posture was helping me watch over everyone today from the dock. #MallardMonday #greenwingedteal #birds #Canadiangeese

Look at tiny man #greenwingedteal Lil Finley! He somehow gets cuter every single day! He may have gotten cuter in the 45min I was there. HOW CAN PPL HUNT THESE GUYS😟😪🙄?! Anyway my friends were so glad it was 28F today! #MallardMonday #ducks #birds #waterfowl #birdphotography #AmericanBirdingPodcast

The only way to start the day is with a crow from rescue rooster Liquorice

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Before taking another person's shoe, remember you inherit not just their path, but stones they never spoke about. Worn parts show struggles, but the deepest dents are from moments no one saw. Wes takes shoes not for wisdom, but for the comfort of a loved one. One of the greatest possible tresures.

Driving easy in the rain yesterday, Sun going behind. Fab rainbow.
