Today I reached an eBird milestone: 1000 checklists submitted! I have also completed checklists for the last 336 days in a row! Woo Hoo! What is eBird? "eBird is among the world’s largest biodiversity-related science projects, with more than 100 million bird sightings contributed annually"

SEEN ENOUGH OF THIS HMMPPH

a white ibis with it's down curved beak aloft, water flinging upward that it must have been holding (it is in a tree), eyes closed as if in disdain.

I'm always amazed at #bird ID pages: birders see a dozen pixels and are like 'yep, it's a juvenile of this species'. Meanwhile, on the #arthropod ID pages it's 'with that picture we can't reliably narrow it down to order'.

I guess three orders of magnitude difference in species count will do that!

#birder #birbs #heron #BirdsOfMastodon

a yellow crowned night heron peers over a bush at the camera. the decorative yellow head feathers (?) blow to the right suggesting martial arts may ensue.

this blue gray bird has a distinctive yellow head patch, red irises, and a thick relatively (for a heron) short beak

Goodnight fedi from these CANADA GOSLINGS in Cape May, NJ 🇨🇦 :fediverse:

#birbs #birder #BirdsOfMastodon

2 of 5 fuzzy yellow Canada Geese babies sitting near Mom (out of frame to the left)they suddenly took off. 2 went one way, 1 went another way.

both parents seemed not to notice at first.

they all returned, eventually.

here we have 2 of the baby geese following a third, walking near the edge of the (mostly unused by cars) roada fuzzy canada goose baby walking up the sidewalk, away from the camera.
