When I wrote this back in January, I hoped it would make a few people smile. Now it's come full circle and made *me* smile, because @meganseling.bsky.social at @thestranger.com over in Seattle decided it would make a good cartoon, and got Greg Stump to draw one. 😁 www.thestranger.com/climate-issu...

“History has shown that when a government dictates what can and cannot be remembered, the consequences are dangerous.”

They don’t look like the same bird!

So sneaky

Close up of the head and upper body of an Osprey, the wing is dark browns while the head is a mix of whites and browns with a yellow and black eye

Osprey standing on a tree branch with the photo being side profile. Body and wings are dark browns with a white underbelly, neck, and top of head

Got so lucky last night with this Osprey landing in the tree right beside me. Was able to get some nice close-up shots before the red-winged blackbirds started harassing it. #birds #birding

The center of the photo is a great blue heron standing on one foot in some tall weeds. In the bottom left, there is a mallard lying down in the weeds

This Heron and its ducky friend were providing overwatch for the pond #birds #birding ##birdphotography

I think the best response I've seen to AI anything has been, "Why should I bother reading something that nobody could be bothered to write"

Makeup in Sandhill Crane colors and patterns: inner red upper eye, outer shimmery grey eye with brown and white flecks, lower eye in white. Black lips.

#BirdGlamour returns with the Sandhill Crane! Sandhill Cranes perform elaborate courtship dances for their mates. They stay with their mates year round and mate for life, which may be over 20 years! There are 2.5 million year old Sandhill Crane fossils from FL! 🐡🧪🐦

I agree with the sparrow 🥶

First time seeing for me too! Right in the middle of a snowstorm too :)

They need a band name

This chickadee was wondering if I brought any snacks along! #birds

Two Mallards on a pond diving head down for food. Only the bottom half of the ducks and their feet are visible above the water. Set of reeds in the background of the photo

I have always got a good chuckle out of ducks diving. Please enjoy these two Mallard duck butts #birds

Went out for a walk to participate in the 2024 Great Backyard Bird Count. Captured this wonderful White-breasted Nuthatch on this chilly day! #birds

I love the lines thé water makes in this one. Makes the cormorant look magical
