2/x However, an unmated female showed up! He strutted, she said yes, and they successfully fledged 4 chicks! Lonely Bob became Papa Bob and contributed to part of a record breaking year for the Great Lakes Piping Plovers. #birds #shorebirds #ConservationWins
🧵 1/x Gather round for the tale of Lonely Bob. Last year, this Piping Plover showed up & unsuccessfully tried to woo already paired females. When that didn’t work, he courted our shorebird monitor. He eventually left. This year, he returned & seemed destined for a summer of sadness again… #birds
When I first started photographing birds, I always wanted to get a bald eagle. This was my first photo "get" (in Illinois). Jackie & Shadow are a locally famous bald eagle couple in Southern California due to FOBBV nest cam that I followed. Mom, Jackie, just passed away after many days in ICU 😢 💔
Another picture from Hendrson Bird Viewing Preserve near Las Vegas. A northern shoveler scratching one of those hard to get to itches on the back of its head, that expression I think we can all relate to 🤔🤣 #birds #funnybirds
Awww, this is delightful #birds 🌿

#BirdOfTheDay #RunningFromTheLaw This black-billed cuckoo was definitely up to something. Gas City, Indiana Aug 9, 2019
I had my suspicions when I saw a female Red-winged Blackbird collecting beaks full of suet for several days. They had a nest full of fledglings nearby! I didn't know what I had until seeing the pics from the top of a distant tall cedar. There are 2 fledglings begging as mom looks away. 🤣🪶
Isn't she lovely? A female Baltimore Oriole stopped by the backyard today. 🥰 #birds , #summer , #urbanbirding , #backyardbirds , #getoutside , #joy , #nature
Curious Steller’s Jay on a rooftop spots an easy mark. 🌿🪶
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RunningFromTheLaw, any bird that is moving fast on land or water. Fish thief makes a quick getaway (see alt text). #EastCoastKin #birds #birding #birdnerd #birdsky #PhotographersOfBlueSky #shotoncanon
It’s not all flowers and glamour for butterflies. This one is sucking up minerals from the mud (Eastern Tiger Swallowtail) #invertebrates 🌿 #BugSky
Swallow portrait! 😍 Taken recently on the rocks at Martin's Haven in Pembrokeshire. 😊🐦 #birds You can buy my 2027 Birds calendars here; www.carlbovis.com/2027-birds-c... ❤️

Time to dust off the old cards and see what's in the camera in need of processing. First up there seems to be an abundance of mooselets this summer. This one (and its mom) were blocking me on a walk to photograph woodpeckers and owls so they became my subjects! Anchorage #Alaska 🦊

From my walk this morning. Canada Geese having a leisurely stroll. Have a good week everyone. Thinking about the people and wildlife affected by all the wild fires.
Ok, phone camera people. Any suggestions for @dwmmphotography.bsky.social? #birds #invertebrates 📸 📷
Okay internet, I was asked if there are any decent teleconverter lens attachments for phones (for collecting reference birds), & while my answer is "probably not" I am not well researched in this area, so am throwing it to a wider audience who might know more.
Nature break. Marbled godwits foraging along the shoreline. 🌿🪶
The tail end of a female red-shafted northern flicker. Typically the flickers don't get in the birdbath so it's always a treat to see them splashing around. #birds
