lol thank you! I will definitely check that out!

Wasn’t able to get over there this afternoon but will be there first thing tomorrow morning!

😂😂

Nice! 👍👍 bet you could get some epic shots down there!

Roseate spoonbills will splash their wings through the water as part of their beauty routine. Here's one doing so mid-splash, facing straight ahead towards the camera. I really love this shot. #birds

Thanks Rob!

Thank you! Greatly appreciate it!

Fun video! Can you spot the cameo bird? 🪶

I’ll be there bright and early 😂

Ahh beautiful shot!

A #BlackpollWarbler banded on the Farallones surprises birders 400 miles away in Los Angeles! Farallones vagrants are seldom resighted and some scientists think they are misorienting towards the Pacific with fatal consequences. This #bird defied the odds by making it safely back to the mainland! 🦉🌎🧪

As revitalization of the LA River continues, species like this elegant Black-necked Stilt are finding new life in this urban habitat.

ANOTHER INTERESTING FACT: Male and female Williamson’s Sapsuckers look so different they weren’t recognized as the same species until 1873. 🪶

Thanks Rob!

COOL FACT: Sapsuckers change their drilling style with the seasons — deep round wells in spring for rising sap, shallow rectangular ones in summer for sugary sap and insects — both seen here.

Specializing in tree-tapping, the Williamson’s Sapsucker drills neat rows of holes in bark to sip sap and catch insects trapped in the sticky residue.
