What a beautiful shot. Thank you 😊

This male ruby-crowned kinglet (Corthylio calendula) was moving about manically as it foraged in the Bosque, but somehow I got a decent picture of it. The male's red crest is almost entirely hidden in this image, but earlier he flashed it at me. Photo taken on December 21, 2025.

Very striking! 💕
Reposting some of my best work of 2025. I was photographing godwits when I noticed this tūturiwhatu (New Zealand dotterel) sussung me out from the other side of a sand bank. I find this quite striking in black and white. 🪶🇳🇿

Well hello 😍
A quiet moment with a pint-sized Northern Saw-whet Owl. Such a mesmerizing little gremlin!

The walk around Waughop Lake at Fort Steilacoom Park was busier than usual for a Tuesday afternoon. I’m sure it was because people have off for Veterans Day plus it was a pretty day to be outside. #pnw #lakewood #wawx

Beautiful shot, beautiful moment 😍
I did peek out our windows last night, but saw nothing but cloud cover.

Last night's aurora show (enjoyed by everyone else) took me back to last year, when we finally timed things right and I got to show my wife and son their first northern lights. One of my favorite moments of the year.

Wow. Thanks for sharing 😍
A Powerful Owlet in a Brisbane park. When it's warm they'll sit high and you get a better look at those impressive talons. These juveniles practice hunting skills by 'attacking' leaves, bark and unwieldy looking sticks they've snapped off mid-flight. #birds #wildoz #brisbane

Well hello 😍
my new spirit animal is the lone burrowing owl living in a hole by decommissioned railroad tracks in an industrial Long Beach parking lot 🪶

Target locked. Talons out. The Osprey strikes in perfect form.

It’s beautiful 💕
I make my living in large part by photographing piles of sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere. I love it.

I agree. Thank you 🌺💕
We can all use a little more beauty and light right now. This is sunrise over Glacier National Park on 16 August 2024

Hello 😍
Whilst out walking the hills yesterday, I spotted a flock of juvenile Long Tailed Tits. I counted fourteen in total as they moved from tree to tree, great to watch them all in flight #birds #thegardenjungle #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #shropshire #UKwildlife #birdphotography

Oh my 😍
Spotted a bunch of Yellow Warblers that were making nests this weekend.
