This stunning metallic green sweat bee - Agapostemon virescens - is a new yard bee in our backyard. It’s about a third the size of a honey bee 🐝. For scale the center of the flower is the size of a dime.

It amazes me to see how much pollen this bumblebee has on their legs. The wild sweet peas at Discovery Park are a buffet for bees 🐝. It was heartening to see quite a few different species of bees enjoying the flowers.

Seeing a fledgling Barred owlet is one of the things that makes Discovery Park a unique wildlife oasis in Seattle. Sometimes the best way to see predators like owls is by using your ears.👂 Birds like robins, crows and songbirds all have alarm calls when predators are near.

Hope you all dive into your Friday with as much enthusiasm as this Pigeon Guillemont at Shilshole Marina. #TGIF #pigeonguillemot

Spots are filling up for my wildlife photography workshop at the Woodland Park Zoo on April 5, 2025. Sign up today! www.zoo.org/programs/adu... It’s a great way to learn wildlife photography fundamentals and we’ll practice what we learn on a photo walk at the zoo. @woodlandparkzoo.bsky.social

Happy Lunar New Year 🧧! Welcome to year of the Snake! 🐍

A red breasted sapsucker greats the morning at the botanical garden at the Ballard locks. Thanks to the Washington Ornithological Society for their always inspiring bird walks.

A Bewick’s wren greets the day at Discovery Park. Thanks to Cinni and David for leading the bird walk there yesterday.

There is so much wildlife that lives side by side with us in the city. We just have to keep our eyes open for it. #urbanwildlife
