Chonk duck for the win. 🪶

I love the golden crown kinglet 🪶, their tuffs of color are great in this winter weather.

Another lifer for me from my last trip, a yellow crowned night heron 🪶. They have such intense looks

A duck looking up into the snow 🪶

Never seen This lake get frozen over before, the birds seem cool with it.

I liked this duck just wandering around checking for food. 🪶

Its a cold and snowy day here but the geese seem unbothered

Seattle is getting snow again … the dogs love it at least.

Another life from out east, these two white Ibis in the river 🪶

Got another lifer from the trip out east 🪶 a great egret

Adding a new lifer with this little blue heron 🪶

A couple of pelicans I caught loitering on the dock 🪶

Sadly only got one outing for a few hours for birds on the east coast but still snagged 4 new birbs 🪶 including this Boat-tailed Grackled

I’m very excited for being able to get out again finally to go look for bird this coming week and first time this year. Granted it’s in Florida so at least there will be birds I can’t see in the PNW

Perfect, a viral photo can be called a hot flash.

I ended up getting a clear winter night in the Salish sea to take a few photos to make this giant pano. I’m likely going to print this for the wall for our winter photo set. 📸

Quite skeet with a bird on a sign, I do love the tree swallow color 🪶

“You’ll be visited by the three wisemen” … of shorebirds 🪶

Adding to the #birds looking straight at camera thread. Love their angry looking face

Been re-listening to @dungeonsanddads.bsky.social from season 1, since the election as some kind of stress manager. Though this time as a patreon I now can listen to the after show. It’s been a really a big change to be able to have that extra view and see their perspective this go around.

A throwback to this great blue heron hunting for fish snacks out in Union Bay #birds

Atlantic puffins (Bleik, Norway, June 2024) 🪶 🇳🇴 #birds

As we reach the end of the year “wraps” are showing up… if there was one for streaming it would be “you watched bobs burgers 100 times” and “you watched LOTR extended 50 times”.

“Deregulation” is just code for “fuck over all of us consumers and normal Americans” by these special interest hacks apnews.com/article/delt...

Love watching the ducks that have come back to town in the winter… 🪶 the second one is hilarious because the seal also joined in

I do love their blue coloring. Sad they do not often pop in my yard #birds

I don’t have much for ya’ll…

It seems like the small positive today is my strawberry plants are flowering, in November…

Wood duck Wednesday 🪶📸

Auri enjoys the fall leaves very much, it gives her so many new smells from all the leaves. 📸🐕

The morning walk with the dogs has been able to help my stay grounded in these anxiety inducing times. Plus the Sound will soon be rain

Lovely belted kingfisher flying from its perch to attempt hunting in this marshland 🪶📸

There we go, getting that aurora view up in the 🏔️📸

Happy Wednesday yall 🪶#woodduckwednesday
