Birds Without Borders—Mostly, my bird photography and bird art from coastal northern California, the Southwest, and Latin America
An American Redstart is real rarity on the Pacific Coast. #BirdoftheDay #BestofJuly #aves #birds #wildlife
I think my favorite birds are tanagers. Here’s one of a Saffron-crowned from Antioquia, Colombia. #BirdoftheDay #Multicolour #aves #birds #nature
Meet the Pygmy Nuthatch. Nuthatches are only bird that forages upside down. #birdoftheday #EmeraldBackdrop #birdsofbluesky #aves #birds #nature
A vigilant Yellow-eyed Junco shares the borderlands from southern Arizona to deep into Mexico. Indigenous locals in Mexico called them 'caster of fire' or 'lightning bird', and that they collected light during the day and released it at night. #Birdoftheday #EyeOfTheWild #birds #aves #sparrows
A rare appearance in Northern California of a Parakeet Auklet. They normally spend their lives in the Aleutians and up into Russia. #birdoftheday #TantalisingTextures #birds #aves
Normally, I don’t think of gulls as being ‘cute’, but this Bonaparte’s Gull just might cause me to change my mind. #BirdoftheDay #Gulls #birds #aves
An Ash-throated Flycatcher stops by for a short spell in coastal Northern California. #BirdoftheDay #SummerLovin #birds #aves
Always enjoyable watching an American Avocet pick around the mud and stay so clean. #BirdoftheDay #SummerLovin #birds #aves #migratory
A couple of days ago, I came across this very inquisitive and recently fledged Black-crowned Night Heron. #BirdoftheDay #screenfiller #birds #aves #herons #migratory
It’s ‘just’ a Common Raven from a canyon in SE Arizona .(probably, scheming the best method to hijack our camp food) #corvidae #BirdoftheDay #birds #aves #raven
The Inca Jay is one of the brightest plumaged of the #corvidae. #BirdoftheDay #birds #aves #flyday #birdphotography
Denizens of the desert Southwest and Mexico, this Curved-bill Thrasher typically perches and calls out in the early morning hours. #BirdoftheDay #OpenBeaks #birds #aves #birding
A stern and incredulous Double-crested Cormorant... #BirdoftheDay #BestSideEye #birds #aves #birding
A Ruddy Duck checks the weather. #BirdoftheDay #Contortionist #birds #aves #birding #birdphotography #ducks
It’s early morning #Bathtime for this Golden-crowned Sparrow in our nearby local spring. #BirdoftheDay #birds #aves #birding #birdphotography #nature
My last lifer was a Chestnut-napped Antippa. . Occupying a thin strip along the Andes in Colombia, they forage around in the dark understory and are heard much more than seen. #BirdoftheDay #lifer #birds #aves #birding
Western Bluebirds are always one of my favorite local birds. Here, they live in a grove of cypress and are always ready for a photo op. #BirdoftheDay #orange #birds #aves #birding
