I wanted to get a picture of a puffin with the mountains in the background instead of the sea. Without a wide-angle lens, this was the best I could pull off lol. I'm still kind of proud of it, though.

A rather poignant commentary on #war and the #environment

Because of radio frequency jamming, fiber optic #drones are being used by #Russia and #Ukraine on the frontlines

They just spool the fiber out as they fly

Apparently some areas look like giant spider webs everywhere from the endless #drone flights

And #birds are now using the waste of war to make their nests

#UkraineWar

Photo of a bird's nest made with some fiber optic strands with the caption in Ukrainian:

A bit of whimsy today with Owl No. 01, newly added to my collection: https://1-lisas-baker.pixels.com/featured/owl-no-01-lisa-s-baker.html

An art print of a whimsical artwork of a detailed owl surrounded by colorful floral and nature-inspired patchwork, with pinecones, acorns, and leaves creating a charming backdrop. The bold word “OWL” appears at the bottom, adding a playful, artistic touch. The owl is adorned with delicate floral accents, evoking a sense of mystery, wisdom, and woodland magic.

Sooty Oystercatchers (Haematopus fuliginosus),natives of Australia and New Zealand.If an oyster or other bivalve is slightly open, the oystercatcher quickly, precisely insert its bill to snip the adductor muscle that holds the two halves together. Then it's lunch. #birds #birdsofmastodon #biology #nature #photography #wildlife

Imagine a striking bird that lives along the coast, especially on rocky shores. The Sooty Oystercatcher is entirely black, from its head to its tail, looking very sleek. What really stands out are its bright, almost glowing, red-orange bill, which is quite long and strong, and its pinkish-red legs. These vibrant colors against its dark body make it quite distinctive.

These birds are found in places like Australia and New Zealand. They are often seen walking confidently on rocks or along the waterline, searching for food. Their name "oystercatcher" gives a clue about what they eat, but they're not just limited to oysters! They use their powerful, specially designed bill to pry open or even hammer into hard-shelled creatures like mussels, limpets, and, yes, oysters. They can also snip the muscles inside a slightly open shell to get to the soft meat. Besides shellfish, they'll also eat crabs, marine worms, and other small creatures found in the coastal environment.

I’ve been following up on a Barred Owl family with three chicks. Love this captured moment as sunlight filtered through the trees of a dense PNW forest.

A cute barred owlet perches gracefully on a moss-covered branch, surrounded by the rich, dark textures of a dense forest of the Pacific Northwest. They've fledged along with two siblings just over two weeks ago and I've been following their developments.
Captured them at the right moment when sunlight filtered through the trees, illuminating the baby owl's intricate feather patterns and creating a serene, natural atmosphere at an Edmonds park in Washington state.

Fantastic turnout today No Kings March, Palm Beach Gardens. Probably 2000 people or so both sides of busy highway, very inspiring in the brutal 32.5C heat/high RH. Only 2 MAGAt problems, big black oversized trucks w big wheels (always trouble, those) speeding past, yelling, flipping off. If police weren't there, they may well have run into the crowd. My 89 yr. old father, USMC vet was with 👍🏽. Carlin Park run this morn., before, so taxing for me. #nokings #florida #running #birds
