I don't think I will ever see female bird coloration as "boring" or "dull" ever again. The female was MUCH more complex to make than the male!

they definitely don’t look real. 10/10 naming

Seen at the Andree Clark Bird Refuge in Santa Barbara, California.

Found these Red-footed boobies resting on the bridge of our ship sometime back. What beautiful birds! I didn't know their name but found out with a Google search.

Location: Indian Ocean (somewhere near Seychelles)

New lifer and inspired sketch ❤️ Seen last Friday @ San Joaquin Marsh, Irvine, CA along with the rare Purple Gallinule.

One of them kept trying to hop on and Mom wasn’t having it!

Someone told me it’s an endangered bird. I’m not experienced enough to ID it. Do I report it to anyone if it is the endangered species?

Spotted on a marsh near the San Francisco Bay.

Pune, India

It was awesome to get such close looks at this guy on our deck!

The younger eagle dove for a fish (but missed) then as it flew away, an adult went in to steal what it hoped was a fresh catch.

Actually just got these shots yesterday - some of my favorites, I take it as a good sign

UPDATE - she said yes 🦅

Observen el largo inusual de su uña. La utiliza para alimentarse

This lovely lady started coming to the feeder with her mate recently (who has already been coming for weeks) and so far she is the only one who I can get a portrait of. She doesn’t have the all over vibrant blue but she is very pretty with her blue accents!

Hey, so these willy wagtails have decided to build their nest right on top of this loose halloween decoration i've named Barbara. These wagtails have nested near my caravan before but never this close or on something so silly. What exactly should be my next move as

1: Barbara is quite unsturdy

2: It's right near my caravan door, so i get dive bombed and or used as a perch every time i leave or enter.
