American golden plover painted with watercolor and ink

Cryptic plumage is such a challenge 🎨😅!
It’s a true artistic challenge! Still, I love #bird s with this kind of plumage — ptarmigans, owls, #shorebird… real masters of camouflage 👑🌿

Eyebrook Reservoir good runs continues! Well done to @leicesterllama.bsky.social for finding the American Golden Plover this weekend #vc55birds @lrosbirds.bsky.social #ukbirding #rarebirdsuk #americangoldenplover #eyebrook

A few mornings ago I got to hang out with this #RedTailedHawk hunter, mistook this #AmericanGoldenPlover for a sandpiper, and had this #BlueJay pose for me, all in one walk #birds #Pittsburgh

Weekday evening twitch with @andysims49.bsky.social for the American Golden Plover was a great success & a lifer for me! Beautiful bird, adept at worm hunting, we watched it gobble down many of these. #lincsbirding #birds #americangoldenplover

Stacks of birds on Banks Marsh this afternoon including single juvenile #LittleStint, #CurlewSandpiper and this lovely juvenile #AmericanGoldenPlover. Yet another find by the AGP magnet that is @DarbyBug!
