Flashback on this January 24 to a June 24 2023: Sandhill Cranes. A colt is walking in a pond with his mother and then testing his wings for the very first time in his life.

It's bitter cold here right now, good to see summer photos.

Good to be off on-call duties and back on BlueSky.

Blue-footed Boobies are AMAZING in flight! No double entendre, the birds seems a bit silly on the ground but are absolute wonders in the air

Flooded fields are attractive to herons for some reason - this was on the edge of the water before it took off.

Tan with a Touch of Fire

I’m not especially pleased with how this image of a female Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) turned out. ...

1/3

Gorgeous 'Finches' jigsaw puzzle anyone?

1500 pieces and all our UK finches. 1 piece missing (see photo in listing) but still fabulous to do. I had no idea before I did this puzzle that Hawfinches have weird little flared tips to their primary flight feathers! #birds

When you move slowly and quietly so as not to scare off the great blue heron... and then a boat comes by and scares it off anyway.

Pressure data also allowed us to calculate flight altitude throughout the year—and in a cool twist we found that the max altitude of our birds matched the altitude at which @catieivy.bsky.social found captive MYWA would maintain flight in a hypobaric wind tunnel!
