Just some happy lil dudes munching some sunflower seeds. :)

There are feral populations of these rosy-faced lovebirds around Phoenix and from what I've been able to find in terms of research, they don't seem to be having any negative impact on the native species.

Gesundes neues Jahr allen. 🥂

PS: Mir graut wenn ich an all die verstörten, panischen Tiere heute Abend denke. 😞

As hungover and red-eyed as a grebe can get ;-)

Deze foto maakte ik ooit in het archeologisch park in Xanten. Een brutale mus kwam op de stoel naast me zitten. Ik had geen eten.

Ok, here they are highlighted. That one on the left has such cute feathers.

Good Morning from Germany 🇩🇪
What a beautiful #sunrise to start the last day of this year. And the early #birds are already up and 🎶 #NewYearsEve2023 #dawn #bird #birdsofmaston #nature

We came across this Northern Pintail on one of our walks today and he was so striking! He was a fancy duck hanging out with the regular ducks. We felt lucky to see him in the city. Have a safe journey south, buddy!

Northern Pintail Identification, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Elegant Northern Pintails swim through wetlands and lakes with their slender necks and long, pointed tails held high. Intricately patterned and pale-faced females join males fashioned with a signature white stripe down their chocolate-colored necks. These eager breeders head to the prairie pothole region of the Great Plains, as well as Canada, and Alaska to nest as soon as the ice breaks up. Large groups congregate in wetlands, lakes, bays, and even waddle through agricultural fields eating grains during the winter. Though still common, their populations are declining.
