Zoo & nature photography. Carrion Ecology is a happy place. There's gonna be scavengers scavenging.
Spotlight for the monochrome birds! Day 2 of #Birdtober is Shades of Grey! A lot of attention is given to super colorful birds because they're so eye catching, but the grey birds are also pretty neat. Like that songbird down there that skewers its dinner. #BirdtoberClub2026 #Photography #Birds
I’m back! Gonna share some October art prompts I’m making as part of #BirdtoberClub2026 and #Witchtober2026 over on instagram. I’m combining prompts from both challenges. Get ready for some witchy #birds! October 1 - todays prompts are Aerial Insectivore and Candle, so I drew a Common Nighthawk 💜
For Shades of Gray #Birdtober I'm going with a Gray Jay. (Yes, some Very Important Ornithologists decided this wasn't the species name. But I don't agree (because only endemic species should be named after geography) and don't have to follow their rules here.) #BirdtoberClub2026 #Photography #Birds
The Holei Sea Arch had been showing signs of instability for years. In 2022, large surf from Tropical Storm Darby took a chunk of the natural sea arch and park rangers warned it could collapse at any time. #HVNP #HoleiSeaArch
Hawaii's famed Holei Sea Arch is gone forever
The arch is believed to have been 550 years old.

If the argument for women should know better than to go into a rape den like a frat house, explain to me why a rape house like a fraternity is allowed to exist at all.
It's bird time! #Birdtober starts off with Aerial insectivore. I'm kind of amazed that I managed to get flight shots of all these birds. They may not be actively eating insects, but they do consume them! #BirdtoberClub2026 #Photography #Birds

This. Also you sometimes run into people with an unfalsifiable statement of "I'm right" regarding things that are falsifiable and will ignore any evidence presented counter to that (is vulture poop acidic enough to kill harmful microorganisms like their stomach acid as a totally random example)
Courtney Milan@courtneymilan.com · 2d agoWe now understand that most religious statements are unfalsifiable: that is, there is nothing that could happen that would demonstrate that they were false. There is therefore no logical thing to be gained by arguing with someone who believes unfalsifiable statements.
It's spooky season which means I can finally bring this piece back 🎃🐈⬛
New month new art challenge! Going to give this Birdtober list a go, featuring me diving through all my photos. Minus one prompt that won't be photos. I bet you can guess which one. List is by @kaylafiskbirds.bsky.social (I just don't post on instagram anymore)
A few days ago I was up in the wee hours of the morning for the Harvest Moon because I've made poor choices in what pet behaviors I give positive reinforcement to.
There are red-winged blackbirds being noisy in my yard, which means my winter bird food budget is not going to be enough.
@tkingfisher.com important info for Saturday -> the Ramen Snacks can be found at the Daiso in Santa Fe (I think also the Santa Fe Asian Market on St. Michaels (which also had a stock of ube short bread last time I was there)) and I've seen Moon Cheese at the Cost Plus World Market by B&N.
Our new paper on bird vocal amplitude is out in @sse-evolution.bsky.social ! Across 123 species, we found two new contenders for world’s loudest bird: bare-throated bellbird and seriema Along with the white bellbird, both can reach jackhammer-level amplitudes! doi.org/10.1093/evolut/qpag153

Kate Elliott@kateelliottsff.bsky.social · 3w agoI am not first and will be far from the last to say this: I have purchased so many books because I saw them recommended or publicized here on bsky. I cannot urge you all enough to KEEP TALKING ABOUT BOOKS. I know it's easier to talk up someone else's book, but this also means you, the shy author.
One of those times you're not sure you can catch the full size of the flock and have enough detail to keep the birds identifiable. 🪶
