Absolutely gobsmacked to witness massive raptor migration near Panama City this morning. Probably the most birds I've ever seen in my life! The video doesn't do it justice, there were clouds of them moving through. Nature is amazing. #birds #flyways

Great Blue Heron appearing unimpressed with the Canada Goose vibes at the Rideau Canal this morning...

Trying really really hard to work despite the fact that the cardinals from the backyard nest just fledged and there's pollinators all over the blazing stars and it's beautiful out. Is it the weekend yet!?

Urban hummingbird (spp?), Mexico City. 1/2

There's an awesome Chimney Swift roost right in Ottawa - it didn't disappoint tonight! These amazing #birds are threatened. Est. total population size in Canada is 20-70K mature indiv's, which means this single roost hosts a pretty darn significant population.

Lifer! The elusive Hairy Lawnpecker. ;)

Pollinator party on my front yard willow. Spring, so great! #gardening #birds #bugs

Pretty sure that in Red-winged blackbird language, this team chant behind my house means "make the freezing rain stop". #birds #ottawa

Such a peaceful time alone on the the pier in Port Rowan today. It was very foggy, so I could only see the swans near me (Mute and Tundra), but there were hundreds of ducks, gulls, geese, cranes and blackbirds all around. Felt like I was witnessing the end of winter. (Sound on!). #birds

Solid crow o'clock in Ottawa just now. I was at an intersection waiting to cross on foot and just stood there for 3-4 cycles. 100-150 #birds a minute. Never gets old.

Crow o'clock again over Ottawa, Canada! This happens every winter evening before sunset. Today their flight path seems to be about 500m further south than usual (which is over my house!), hence why the tiny specs out my window! Counting about 100 birds/min headed to the roost. #birds
