<p>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. <a href="/tags/birds/" rel="tag">#birds</a> <a href="/tags/birdsofmastodon/" rel="tag">#birdsofmastodon</a> <a href="/tags/biology/" rel="tag">#biology</a> <a href="/tags/nature/" rel="tag">#nature</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#photography</a> <a href="/tags/wildlife/" rel="tag">#wildlife</a></p>

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.

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.

<p>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. <a href="/tags/nokings/" rel="tag">#nokings</a> <a href="/tags/florida/" rel="tag">#florida</a> <a href="/tags/running/" rel="tag">#running</a> <a href="/tags/birds/" rel="tag">#birds</a></p>

there were two heat stress casualties, requiring EMS

grey heron on my run this morning, love these.

Not used to these conditions. 9 days before skiing at 3300m 😭.

beautiful this morn. for my hour run, but no breeze, so with the high RH 27C sweated buckets. I did a 25K run here heat of the day in July 20 yrs. ago, those days are long past 😜

An Osprey In The Sun ... a magnificent adult osprey, wings spread to take advantage of strong sea breezes, passes in front of the sun on a summer dawn. As he sails above the Atlantic Ocean, his sharp golden eyes scan the waves below him ... on the watch for breakfast for his family.

This image was hand-painted in Corel Painter with thick-paint technology and is very loosely based on one of my own, original photographic images ... not from stock ... captured off the beach at the Outer Banks, NC, summer 2021.

Fine art and product purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... wall art of this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."

Color photo of a female cardinal perched on the back of a metal chair, reacting to her fledgling that has its mouth open and thrust at her.

digital ink illustration of a dusty rose-coloured pigeon (with a deep coral-coloured eye & lashings of turquoise & muted magenta throughout the feathers) striking a pose on pavement.
pale peach lines radiate from pij's head & point to stylised text in pale peach & medium grey that reads: 'never let them tell you you're not beautiful'.
