Data, science, climbing, urbanism, sci fi, birds.
I didn't manage to capture this Gray-breasted Mountain-Toucan tossing back its snack, but I love the patterning on its bill.

Yeah, but what a shot. The Reuters version on the NYT is more dramatic, with a piece of lifted wreckage, but they decided it should be a movie with a play button right in the middle...

I'm not sure if this Speckled Hummingbird was politely waiting its turn, or just having a rest.

Before seeing these Paradise Tanagers in #ecuador, I would have assumed a picture of this #bird was AI-generated.

Black-billed Mountain-Toucan, waiting for the coast to clear before returning to its nest with food.

Finally getting around to sorting through #birdphotography from my last trip. This Gorgeted woodstar hummingbird in #ecuador cooperated to show off his throat.
