Wilderness untamed & pure, touching every core of your being, unbridled power, furious gale force winds, churning clouds, horizontal sleet, bitter cold. I wouldn't have it any other way! Yukon, Canada.

Good morning! Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Feathers&Form. This photo I took a few days ago, shows a mix of three flocks -avocets, dowitchers, and gulls- on the move over the water. Some lovely patterns there!
