A really pretty bi color bolete with a red cap that fades to yellow with an orange stem. It’s super tiny as it stands in moss

Perfect day

A bright red bird with black-streaked wings, a black face and distinctive red crest on his head is perched on a mossy branch in front of blurred, green foliage on a sunny late spring day. A bit of something he was eating or trying to eat is clutched in his red beak.

A brightly colored bird with vivid red underparts and face, contrasted by dark wings, back, and a black mask around the eyes. It is perched on a mossy, curved branch in a forested area with soft green foliage in the background.

The Rosy-thrush Tanager isn't any of those things. Well, it's rosy. But it's not a thrush or a tanager, but its own family Rhodinocichlidae.

These are not common birds and can be difficult to find in the thick forest they inhabit.

A female blackbird (Turdus merula) standing alert on a mossy surface, with speckled brown plumage and a yellow-ringed eye. The background is softly blurred in shades of green and beige, with fresh green foliage on the right.

My bird today is the Common Blackbird. The females are underrated but imo the more beautiful of the two. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Don’t go chasing waterfalls.
Unless it’s this one.
This one is worth chasing.

alt text A bird of prey—female Kestrel—perches on a moss-dappled rocky surface with its wings partially spread, showcasing intricately patterned brown and white feathers. Its yellow eyes are alert and piercing, and the hooked beak hints at its predatory prowess. A clear blue sky forms the backdrop, enhancing the bird’s striking silhouette.

Had to stop the car on the way home from work for this beauty that was perched on an old house roof in the village of Lower Crawley this afternoon

A young barred owl sits on a mossy branch.

Well done, New Yorkers. Have an owl. 🦉🪶

A heron standing on a mossy stony, a fish in its beak, river rapids roaring behind it.

Forge Dam is a great walk. I'm lucky enough to live overlooking the Rivelin Valley. If you haven't tried that walk yet, I recommend it.

A young Coal Tit sat ontop of a bird feeder with blurred very green background.

Another young Coal Tit at RSPB Leighton Moss. I highly recommend the place whether you're bird watching or just going on a walk.

Excuse me, I believe this is my moss?” 🧐💚: A female Bornean shortwing (Brachypteryx hyperythra) showing off refined perch manners and the understated elegance typical of the quieter half of a dimorphic duo👑🌿. Photo: Daniel Yong. #Biodiversity #Wildlife #Birds #Birding #BirdsSeenIn2025

Three Barred Owls sit high in the trees on a thick mossy branch. The one on the left stares at the two to the right as they eat an animal they killed. A string of intestines travels from the dead animal's body to the owl on the far right, and then from that owls mouth to the mouth of the owl in the middle.

It's like a very grotesque version of lady and the tramp 😅 Barred Owls sharing a meal in the trees

Closeup of a fallen log with an abundance of mushrooms adorning the edges, peppered with green moss.

I think this tree and I can break down together.

The morning sun beams through the forest trees, illuminating the morning mist.

Good morning my #bluesky friends!💙☀️✨️😁🦋

Water drops 156 ft down a narrow gully flanked by lush moss, ferns and greenery.

Living on the prairies, the water doesn’t fall; it pools. So waterfalls are not a common sight. But here’s the impressive drop of Niagara Falls in Goldstream PP on Vancouver Island. #waterfallwednesday #nature

A daytime photo of a tall, vigorous waterfall spilling over a tall cliff face. Wildfire damaged conifer trees stand in the foreground in front of the waterfall view and the very full stream coming away from it. The steam exits the frame at lower left. Above the tall waterfall is a smaller one, set back from the main cliff. The cliffs show a lot of moss and lichen growth. The lichens have a golden green color, even in Winter. A trail can be seen from lower right as it approaches the main waterfall's base.

This #WaterfallWednesday I bring you Elowah Falls, with Upper McCord Creek Falls just above it! Visited this past winter during high flow. Still managed to get close to the base of Elowah despite it spitting like a firehose! #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #waterfall #Oregon #nature #hike #📷
