KOKEDAMACHAN moved on Shrike. The shrike is quick. It is a magnificent bird of prey, although its body is quite small. It is also a very reliable friend. #Illustration #CommentPls #RTpls

There were no other females in sight so I’m sure this display was just for me. I think we’re married now 💙 #birds

Off to my yearly stint in #Yosemite! I train our #BirdBanding crew every year for @instbirdpop.bsky.social. Our Yosemite MAPS stations are some of the longest-running banding stations in the US (over 30 years)! Here are a few of last year's birds (see alt text). 🪶🧪👩‍🔬🌎
