#Birds Helen Bennett 🌿 @helenbennett.bsky.social says Autumn is a time for berries so today's #BirdOfTheDay is #BirdsWithBerries Any bird captured with berries. This little Flycatcher was hanging out in a Black Hawthorn (Crataegus douglasii), snapping up insects that came in for the berries.
Pretty clouds over the Cascades at sunset. Wishing you a peaceful day. 💙☮️✌️ #Photography #Scape #PNW #PDX #Oregon #Mountains #Forests #Sunset

A combo today for my #WeeBee as it is also #ColorADay #RedWed plus #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKforKn… and something to cheer up our sickly host, Sheena. (Or possibly give her a relapse.) I give you (drum roll) a Bee's knees. #ECK #Insects #Bees #Bloomscrolling #Macro #PhotographersOfBluesky
Autumn is settling in nicely 🍂 What do you enjoy most about autumn in Cambridge? 📍 #CambridgeUniversityLibrary
Good morning. One from my garden. Anemone, River Lily, Salvia. ♥️ #Photography #Scape #PNW #PDX #Flowers #Bloomscrolling #Gardens
I love the sounds baby cranes make. It takes 2-5 years for young sandhills to grow the 2-3ft long bony coils of trachea (which grow literally into the bones of their thick, shield-like keels) to make the loud, trumpeting calls of their parents. They literally become organic French horns inside! 🪶
I dont have all my ducks in a row, but my cranes sure are. 🪶

1/ We are #fundraising to get this 13yo #mustang from Cold Springs OR to Skydog. A kill buyers’s dream, he must weigh a ton - they make a lot of money on a horse like this as they’re sold for their meat by the pound. Let’s get him out of there. To donate: bit.ly/3I1ucWT
