Another Monday! Today we have an American kestrel (Falco sparverius). I took this a while ago. Not great I know but I don't see them that often and hoped to get a good shot. San Benito County, California.

Spring crocuses. 💮🌺
Their beauty lasted only a few days and how intense were their scent and colors attracting the first pollinators. The buzz of bumblebees collecting that heavy pollen was something I didn't want to miss.

Still another month of winter to go, but there are some interesting things happening with #widlife that you might be on the lookout for.
So pleased to have finally spotted the local barn owls and even luckier that they have taken to hunting in the field next to my house. 🦉

It’s Red Squirrel Appreciation Day 2026!
You can help protect Scotland’s reds by reporting both red and grey squirrel sightings to @scotsquirrels.bsky.social.
Every record helps inform conservation efforts across the country.

A small hummingbird is perched sideways on a thin tree branch. Its body is compact, with a long, straight black bill pointing to the left. The bird’s back and head shimmer with metallic green tones, while its throat and chest are a soft pale gray to white. Its wings are folded neatly against its sides, appearing dark with hints of green, and its tail points downward along the branch. Fresh spring leaves surround the bird—bright green, slightly translucent, and just beginning to unfurl—some leaves are in sharp focus near the bird, while others blur into the background. The background itself is smooth and softly colored in muted greens and browns, suggesting a forest or garden setting and making the hummingbird stand out clearly and calmly against the scene.

Wednesday is upon us. It was a cold night here and the buildings and cars are covered with a thin layer of frost. Today we have a common raven (Corvus corax) enjoying a mid-morning snack.

If there's one thing that we can agree is hilarious, it's got to be climate policy, am I right? My latest #satire Link in comments. #climatechange #widlife
threw out some peanuts for the squirrels. Mom ran over, amazing they can spit out the shells lol #deer #widlife #poconos
Totally forgot about this from last Wednesday. Just a random buck walking across the street up from my parents house. I'm assuming they live in the south mountain reserveration just under a mile to the west. #deer #widlife
sideways view of a robin standing on the edge of an upturned piece of tree trunk which is green from age and damp. The robin is a little plumped up against the cold and is looking down - perhaps contemplating that it had finished the mealworms put out for it and wondering when I was getting round to more

Our garden robin looking a bit pensive cos the mealworms have run out.

A stilt stands in shallow water with green reeds (Himantopus himantopus), recognizable by its extremely long, thin, reddish legs. Its plumage is mostly white, with black wings and a black back. It has a long, needle-like beak, which it uses to search for food such as insects, crustaceans, and worms in the shallow water. Relative to its body, it has the longest legs of any bird in the world.
Endlessly long and #skinnylegs
In proportion to its body, the black-winged Stilt is said to have the longest legs of any bird in the world.

Red squirrels explore toadstools. The inquisitive rodents play with the red and white toadstools, creating a scene similar to a 'fairytale'. Taken in a backgarden in Bispgården, Sweden.
