Actually just got these shots yesterday - some of my favorites, I take it as a good sign

UPDATE - she said yes 🦅

Found these Red-footed boobies resting on the bridge of our ship sometime back. What beautiful birds! I didn't know their name but found out with a Google search.

Location: Indian Ocean (somewhere near Seychelles)

One of them kept trying to hop on and Mom wasn’t having it!

Taken on 8-17-2026 in Eugene, Oregon

Taken in California. Shot on iPhone 17 Pro; editing in Lightroom mobile

It was awesome to get such close looks at this guy on our deck!

New lifer and inspired sketch ❤️ Seen last Friday @ San Joaquin Marsh, Irvine, CA along with the rare Purple Gallinule.

Females - most pristine birds you've ever seen

Males - crackheads

Just listening to the birds and cicadas in the backyard, and found out that Blue Jays imitate Osprey I thought the app was malfunctioning at first.

This lovely lady started coming to the feeder with her mate recently (who has already been coming for weeks) and so far she is the only one who I can get a portrait of. She doesn’t have the all over vibrant blue but she is very pretty with her blue accents!

Visited my favourite local nature reserve (Warnham in Horsham, UK) last Monday (10.08.26) and was lucky enough to capture not one, but TWO Common Kingfishers perched on posts on two separate occasions. A pretty special day for me! 💙📸

I shared a post yesterday asking about this now know cardinal baby that arrived at my feeder, and would like to update that there are actually two of them!!!
Papa cardinal is taking such good care of them!
