I feel a little like this grebe in life right now. Just trying to stay upright in the waves. So much is going on.

Mark this for the history books: “We’re talking about the president exercising his authority, and the president is of course limited to his authority. That’s the difference between a constitutional government and King George,” said Judge Charles Breyer.

We went for hike today that started off cloudy, but it turned sunny when we reached the top of the climb, which made for a lovely butterfly filled walk back down! There were so many little Blues floating around, including this pretty Bernardino Blue that even opened wings for me!

I love it when birds look right at me. It makes me see them in an entirely different way, often kinda funny! 😄

Trying to get through the week with the fierceness of this Whimbrel. I’m so tired and it’s only Tuesday?!

100% agree. It’s better every year! It’s wild!

Inquiring birds want to know! What cool birds did you see on #MigratoryBirdDay?! Saturday was #GlobalBigDay and I got out to see some fun birds at my favorite local patch! I haven’t even looked through my photos yet though… too many more birds to see today! 😂

I feel like Brown Pelicans suspect every smaller thing of being a snack. 😆

I love watching terns dive in the ocean for fish. Occasionally, they come up with one just a bit too big and lose it. This fish got a second chance!

Snowy Plover is going for breakfast!

A little Snowy Plover squabble with a bit of bounce escape. These birds are tiny, but have big personalities with each other. Remember to #ShareTheShore!

Thanks! Still working on better but better than it was! 🙃

A striking gull, the Heermann's Gull comes in a variety of colors. Here we have the monotone model and the more earth-toned version, but with a vibrant orange bill to steal fish from other birds! 😂

Great Blue Heron is having a great hair day!
I've been fighting a mean ear infection with vertigo and just overall tiredness for the last week or so, so apologies for the gap in posts. But here's a fun bird to keep things going!

Mountain Bluebirds are just crazy blue! So pretty! And a perfect contrast with the green behind it!
