Adult barred owl sitting on tree branch looking down on me very closely because not pictured are its two juveniles who are learning how to bird. The owl has lots of brown stripes on beige feathers. It has prominent feather disks around its eyes and an understated yellow beak.

A real waterlily on really still water, seen at the Chicago Botanic Garden awhile back. 💜
Bright purple waterlily with multiple petals, a yellow ring in inside, and purple stamens clustered in the center and spread out. The back ground has a black shadow on dark grey water.

So many new people post-public launch! 😨a reintro for new frens, hi! 👋🏻 I'm an ecologist/PhD student using acoustics to study baleen whale spatial ecology in the N Atlantic 🐳 I enjoy wildlife photography & running the Birds, Mammals, Marine Life, Herps, Bioacoustics, & Zoosky feeds in my free time 📸🪶
A vibrant lime green colored katydid (a type of cricket) sits on a leaf. It has a projection on its head that looks like a horn. A brown colored seal pup submerged in water, with only its head visible above the surface. In its mouth it has a fish, which it is tearing by grasping it with its sharply clawed foreflippers. A lion cub walks toward the camera, its paws a blur, with a piece of meat and bone in its mouth. An Anna's hummingbird, with pink iridescent throat feathers, sits on a branch with tail feathers splayed.

Happy to find Lillian Snelling (1879–1972) in the wonderful Biodiversity Heritage Library, with thanks to the University Library of Illinois for digitizing: www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/62901635 Her works are finally rolling into the Public Domain.

Let's pretend it's August 17th instead of February 17th. Please enjoy this excellent turtle sunning. Painted Turtle I think? I need to work on my turtle ID. I love them though

It was cool and very rainy yesterday. Our local red-shouldered hawk had to do some serious fluffling to dry out and keep warm. #birds

We adore our lovely lady lemon sharks that make Coral City their home port. We suspect that they give birth to their pups nearby in the mangroves of Biscayne Bay www.instagram.com/reel/C3nXlRF...
