Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #FoodFinds.
When I first saw Bullock's orioles in our trees I thought they were after the blossoms. But no, they were looking for bees.

Today is my Bluesky one-year anniversary. The first photo I posted was of Hoppy (left) and her partner, Not-Hoppy. To celebrate, here's a recent shot of them following their daily early morning grooming schedule.

Another highlight from last year. This pair of ravens were raising chicks that had already hatched out by the end of April. One morning, they lucked into a raccoon carcass that supplied them with a lot of much-needed food. I caught this intimate moment as one passed food to the other. #birds 🌿

🪶🦊 Its the first #SquirrelSaturday of 2026. I’ve seen loads of them this winter due to the milder weather. They’re eating berries every morning

Good morning! For today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #speckles&spots (birds with speckled or spotted plumage) we are joined by this magnificent Common Loon (or Diver, depending on where in the world you are). What a glorious few minutes I spent with this beautiful bird.

White-crowned Sparrow. British Columbia, #Canada

Fun Fact: they share their territories with Fox Sparrows, but chase Chipping Sparrows and Dark-eyed Juncos until they leave as they are seen as rivals for territory and food.
