Thick smoke blankets the sky in Victoria, BC a couple of years ago as two 🇨🇦 bird icons play & prune along the ocean shore waters.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OddCouples - two different birds in one capture.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #posted or #red.

These two characters certainly qualify for the #red option 😎🇨🇷🦜. Not sure what has their attention on the ground below 😊

Happy Sunday Bluesky 🌍

Who is Jeremy Hansen, the Canadian tapped by NASA to fly around the moon?
Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen will soon be blasting off on NASA’s Artemis II mission. How did he get from an imaginary treehouse spaceship in rural Ontario to the real thing?

A “cheeky” Scarlet Macaw peeks out of its nesting box. A nice addition to today’s #BirdOfTheDay - #EyeContact when the eye steals the frame. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #PhotoHour #PuraVida #CostaRica

Beautiful shot! And the North American east coast doesn’t get too wild until you get up into Newfoundland/Labrador, Canada. Canada’s “Rock” province has some tremendous shorelines (and history)!

And yes….. one helicopter shot - but they are pretty “uplifting” as well 😉
