I started birding exactly a year ago today. It has changed my life for the better in so many ways. Here’s US species #401: a parasitic jaeger, spotted pulling off some spectacular aerobatics in pursuit of a poor tern. 🪶 📷: Cesar Chavez

Recently found out Google Podcasts is gone, podcasters were supposed to manually migrate to YouTube Podcasts (in the YouTube Music app apparently?? Very confusing).🪶 This is done now for Songbirding and Songscapes - not the most optimal place to listen but it works! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Just finished editing a new hiking video. I had a long hiatus but the "At Nature's Pace" series is continuing! Hike 3 will be Dundas Valley #HamOnt, and was recorded last September. Meanwhile, if you haven't seen the first two videos... #naturalist #nature www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kPF...
