Birds nest fungi These fungi produce cup-like fruiting bodies that contain 'eggs'. The 'eggs' contain the spores, and are knocked out of the cups by raindrops, which is how these fungi reproduce. Photographed in Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia #mushroommonday #fungifriends #WildOz #nature

Floofy Steller's is a whole mood! #birds #becurious

I try not to think in terms of good or bad light in #landscapephotography as I am convinced there is a scene or image for any type of light. But sometimes is worth getting up for #sunrise to catch the first light of the day! #ocean #sea #sunrise #madeira

Focusing on making it through to the weekend. Short eared owl diving on a vole. #owls #birds #canada #nature #wildlife #photography #wildlifephotography #birding #nikon #photographersunited

This velvety manakin female on the road to San Blas, Panama, flew in when we were looking for an antbird, landing just a few feet in front of me. The photo is uncropped and unedited. #birds

Nervous about sharing this one for today's #Scape mainly because I'm not sure I like it, but here goes! 🫣😆 My attempt at painting a dramatic sunset, inspired from one of my own photos (I'll include in the comments). Hope you like it! 🌅 #Art #EastCoastKin #Landscape #Painting #Sunset
