hey, it seems it's time to move!
i'm noah! some of you may know me from X, but I'd love to meet more people here.
i'm an amateur bird and natural photographer in Colorado. i aim to inspire others and show the beauty of the world while i learn about it myself. 🪶 come and see what i see, how i see it!
i saw an interesting gull today. i'm guessing Ring-billed, but i wish short billed was realistic.

the unique Swan Goose (which is well named, i think) offered close-up views in dreary weather back in June. i remember this being the first time i felt really excited about my photos. that green compliments them so well!

lifer Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay from October. fun fact, this is the roof of a campsite bathroom 😅 very photogenic! this also happened just after a failed sunrise watch (full cloud cover). he cured the disappointment, but i still wish i saw the pink mountains.

a female bullock's oriole- one of my first "notable" lifers as i was learning to ID the birds myself back in may. can't wait to have these little yellow birds back in the spring.

one of my most memorable life-list additions came in the form of this american three-toed woodpecker. on a 6 mile hike, i heard a woodpecker many times and only saw one on the way back. it stayed just feet from me for a while, once even too close for the telephoto to focus. just amazing.

Saw my first Common Goldeneye today. No doubt about why they’re called that! #birds 🪶

for Black #Birds of #BlackFriday Here's 2 Rusty Blackbirds from this year, first is spring, the other fall. Theyre pretty infrequent here, I love their fall plumage and really want to get a good pic of it but they seem love shadowy secluded spaces. #Photography

why do the US and england have different names for common birds in both places. golden-crowned kinglets and firecrests are the same, right? it's confusing #birds

my lifer Horned Lark from October at Antero reservoir. i had to hunt down this visual after hearing them for nearly an hour, but i like how the photo came out more artistic than mine usually are :)

the most i've ever worked in a 2-week period is 31 hours (i am a full time highschool student), so try 45 hours in 2 weeks with thanksgiving and only 1 day off from schoolwork? doing my best to keep a streak of going outside but wow, tough. i have 16 hours left this week. also, moon.
