The most expensive T-shirt I own, but a friendly annual "birder tax" I'm happy to pay each year to remind me of #blackbirdersweek.

As we embrace the 2025 theme, "Grounded in Community," we recognize that true belonging means creating spaces where everyone can bird freely -- without fear, without limits.

In solidarity, today and always.

The outdoors needs YOUR hue...flood the trails with culture, the skies with soul, and let birds bear witness to our brilliance.

It’s Day 5 of #BlackBirdersWeek and we’re honoring “Birds, Bonds, & Belonging.” Today we celebrate how birding can nurture connections to each other, the natural world, and our deeply rooted legacy and relationship with the land.
#BlackBirdersWeek2025 #GroundedInCommunity #blacksky #birds #birding
“Birds, Bonds, and Belonging” aims to cultivate spaces where Black birders see themselves reflected in the birds we admire, the plants in our yards, the companions at our side, and the growing tapestry of our collective story. This subtheme celebrates how birding is more than a hobby; for us, it's a bridge between our people and the land. Today, we highlight how birding can nurture connections to each other, the natural world, and our deep-rooted legacy and relationship to the land. Here, belonging isn't questioned; it's intentionally cultivated.

Today we welcome Day 4 of #BlackBirdersWeek! We claim our “Right to Rest" because peace in nature is not a privilege, but our birthright. Breathe deep, bird freely, and renew your spirit in community.
#BlackBirdersWeek2025 #GroundedInCommunity #blackinnature #scicomm #blacksky #sciart #birds
Text Reads: “Right to Rest” challenges the historical and ongoing policing of Black bodies in nature. It asserts that relaxation, observation, and connection with the natural world are not privileges, but fundamental rights. Today, we honor the restorative power of birding as a meditative, healing practice that allows Black communities to reclaim our relationship with the land on our terms. Slowing down is sacred, and in community, we protect its power to renew us.

Loving the late spring flowers seen during this morning's breeding bird survey at Bandemer Park, especially Black Locusts and Phlox. Beautiful way to spend a Memorial Day morning during #BlackBirdersWeek2025.
Drooping chains of white orchid-like flowers of the Black Locust hang among the new green foliage of the tree. Lilac colored Phlox bloom in a forest.
