Found this Robber Fly perched along the path on a cold morning. These formidable ambush hunters are among our largest flies, often waiting motionless on leaf tips or sunlit perches—watching, ready to strike.

Captured at Haukland Beach during our adventure through the Lofoten Islands, Norway. Known for its breathtaking landscapes year-round. Can’t wait to return in the summer months to experience its striking contrast—lush greenery in place of snow! #MYearthLENS

Walking along the ocean side in Placencia, Belize, I noticed a Red-Tailed Hawk gazing down at me. I followed its pursuit, tracking whatever it was hunting, until I finally got my chance—capturing it as it landed atop a telephone pole! #MYearthLENS

Brown pelicans nest in colonies, often among mangrove forests, where they lay 2–4 eggs and incubate them for around 30 days. With an average lifespan of 25–30 years, they remain a steady presence along the coast, gliding effortlessly before their signature plunge. #MYearthLENS

Wifey & I spent the week driving thru the Lofoten Islands, chasing the aurora, & happened upon the moon nestled between these two peaks. The beauty of this mountain range is breathtaking. More content to come of the lights, cute towns we passed through, & landscapes of the beauty here 🏔️ #MYearthLENS

The nature here in Belize is incredible. If you have the chance to hike in the jungle, do it!

Up close with the incredible harpy eagle-one of the most powerful raptors in the world. That stare says it all 🦅 #MYearthLENS

The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail caterpillar will camouflage itself as bird droppings when they're young. As it matures, it turns green with bold orange and black false eyespots, looking like a snake, to ward off predators. Found in parts of North America, southern Ontario, and Quebec #MYearthLENS

In Belize, tanagers captivate with their bright colors and melodic songs. Their calls bring a unique rhythm to the jungle’s soundscape #MYearthLENS

Spotted this ladybug chilling on a leaf in the garden today! Did you know ladybugs can eat up to 5,000 aphids in their lifetime? Natures tiny pest control 🐞 #MYearthLENS

I’m curious why my following on BlueSky is growing, yet my posts aren’t getting much engagement 🤔

Meanwhile, here’s an elk I came across near St. Louis, MO—he seems deep in thought too 🤣 #MYearthLENS

If you’ve ever been to Antelope Canyon, you know how effortlessly stunning it is—every angle feels like a masterpiece waiting to be captured. After just an hour-long tour, my SD card was packed. Here’s one of my top five favorites from the day #MYearthLENS

This fly wasn’t shy about striking a pose—seemed like it enjoyed the attention. Small, curious, and full of character #MYearthLENS

This past summer along a hiking trail in Northern Vermont - I saw a Goldenrod Crab spider. Unlike other spiders, this one doesn’t weave webs to catch its prey. Instead, it cleverly perches on flowers, waiting for pollinators to come close before swiftly launching its attack. #MYearthLENS

While editing photos after a macro shoot, a house fly randomly landed on the edge of my computer—perfectly posed for a side-view portrait. With my camera right there, it was the perfect moment to swiftly capture the shot. #MYearthLENS

The Atlas Mountains in Morocco are breathtaking! It’s a hiker’s dream, with routes that lead to stunning views and the chance to spot unique wildlife along the way. A perfect mix of natural beauty and adventure ⛰️ #MYearthLENS
