A brown goshawk, absolutely 100% NOT up to any trouble at all, just minding it's own business.

Didn’t expect that much snow at Abra Malaga pass in Peru this month. But it provided nice scenery for this Andean Gull.

Loggerhead shrike. For the first time in many years, I don’t have a trip planned to the Channel Islands. I’m very worried for the future of the country and for our precious natural spaces. Feels like mourning.
This is one of my favorites. The background is the “hairy”’part of a fan palm tree. Not too difficult to capture; just needed the right moment. The more brightly colored males are at the top of the hierarchy for resources but even within them, there seems to be a sub-hierarchy that depends on the individual temperament of the bird. Some are more aggressive and brave.
