A snow bunting perched on an iceberg floating out of JΓΆkulsΓ‘rlΓ³n towards the sea. August, 2019, Iceland.
Snow buntings breed throughout the Arctic in the northern hemisphere. They migrate as far south as southern Canada and northern US in the winter. In summer males are white with black, females duller gray & brown, in winter both are dull brown gray with white and black #birds #arcticbirds #365species

Some chick I met in #Greenland! (Not yet able to fly, this fledgling relies on camouflage & mum's ability to distract predators. Can you see it in the second photo then? The camouflage is petty good...π) #arctic #greenland #birds #arcticbirds #bunting #laplandbunting #fledgling #chick

Planche d'identification du Macareux moine, peint Γ l'aquarelle dans un style traditionnel et rΓ©aliste.
Outside of breeding season, the Atlantic puffin's beak becomes smaller and duller in color...
It's likely because a large, colorful beak helps attract a mate.

The Little Auk is the most abundant alcid in the Arctic! But it's so tiny! It's part of the alcid family, just like puffins and razorbills.

The BrΓΌnnichβs guillemot.
Its name in French "guilemot with mirror" refers to the white βmirrorβ patch, which helps distinguish it easily from other species.

Here's a Canada goose couple hoping that if they lie low & motionles, I won't notice them. Unfortunately I'm adept at this business out there...and it's obvious we've met before. Maybe they recognised me?! π€£ #arcticwildlife #birds #goose #arcticbirds #canadagoose #myhappyplace #greenland

πππ Snow bunting, female The Snow bunting (Plectrophenax nivalis) is a medium-sized songbird of the Arctic regions. Males are mostly white with a black back and tail, while females are more mottled brown and white. They are often seen in large flocks, flying in a rolling wave-like motion. These birds are typically found in open, treeless areas, such as tundra, moorland, and coastal areas. During winter, they migrate southwards. Four subspecies are recognised.
