Gray hawk with black wings, red eye, and orange patch at the base of its beak, sitting on a horizontal branch looking down. Its feet are also orange, and a white patch is barely visible on the back edge of its wing. The background is blurred green with bright spots.

Photo of a white middle aged woman sitting on a concrete floor surrounded by animal cages. She’s concentrating on a camera in her hands while an adorable light brown and grey game hen stands in her leg.

A small bird perched on a thin branch with nesting material in its beak. The bird has a gentle olive-yellow belly, gray head, and a dark curved bill. Its round, attentive eye gives it an alert expression as it carefully holds several thin plant fibers, likely gathered for nest-building.

A female Northern Bentbill working on her nest last year outside my office window at @casabentbill.bsky.social

Will she use the same spot this year? Stay tuned!

Group of white and grey gulls with yellow legs and beaks standing on an ice shelf. A narrow strip of blue open water in the foreground. Two cartoon speech bubbles added next to two gulls with beaks open that read, HEY! and HEY!

A tiny blue-gray bird clinging sideways to a thin tree trunk, showcasing its remarkable climbing ability. Its compact, round body features soft slate-colored feathers with a contrasting white throat patch. The bird's dark, alert eye and slender pointed beak are captured in sharp detail, while its nimble claws grip firmly to the bark.
