Bubulcus &amp; BolotasThe Eurasian Spoonbill, is a large, wading bird in the ibis and spoonbill family. It shows a distinctive spoon-shaped bill, seen even in flight, which it uses to sift through mud and shallow water to find food such as fish, crustaceans, and insects. Adults are mostly white with a crest of feathers on the back of their heads and long legs suited for wading. This species is found in parts of Europe, Asia, and North Africa, close to wetlands, marshes, and shallow lakes. This species is almost unmistakable. One cannot just miss it!<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EurasianSpoonbill?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EurasianSpoonbill</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BirdPhotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BirdPhotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/WildlifeFriend?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WildlifeFriend</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NatureLovers?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NatureLovers</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/WetlandBeauty?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WetlandBeauty</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Camping?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Camping</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SpoonbillLove?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SpoonbillLove</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Alentejo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Alentejo</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Birdwatching?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Birdwatching</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BirdsOfEurope?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BirdsOfEurope</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Ornithology?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Ornithology</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BirdNerd?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BirdNerd</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/OneWithNature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OneWithNature</a>
Laura ScrimshawBedraggled Ani on a Bedraggled Branch. <br> The smooth billed Ani within the Galapagos is a bit of "The little old lady who swallowed a fly." They were introduced in the 1960's to eat the ticks that were accidentally introduced earlier via cattle importation. As with so many plans, this one went awry: It turn out, Ani would rather raid warbler nests and disturb native populations in other ways as well. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/perchingbirds?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#perchingbirds</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/singingbirds?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#singingbirds</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#naturephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturephotos?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#naturephotos</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdwatching?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdwatching</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdnerd?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdnerd</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdfreaks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdfreaks</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdsofpixelfed?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdsofpixelfed</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Galapagos?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Galapagos</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/invasivespecies?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#invasivespecies</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cuckoo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cuckoo</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ani?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ani</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/smoothbilledani?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#smoothbilledani</a>

bundeskater - Marcel GierthEnglish below<br> <br> Hallo meine lieben Lebensformen,<br> <br> ein Vogel, der schon sehr lange auf meiner Wunschliste stand und der durch sein spektakuläres Aussehen beeindruckt, ist der Schwertschnabelkolibri. November 2024 konnte ich ihn in Kolumbien mehrfach beobachten und auch fotografieren. <br> <br> Tiere sind Freunde und kein Essen oder eine Plage.<br> Bleibt gesund, glücklich und verliebt.
<br> Der schlimmste Seelenschmerz ist das Fernweh.<br> <br> M@rcel<br> -------------<br> English<br> <br> Hello my dear life forms,<br> <br> A bird that has been on my wish list for a very long time and that impresses with its spectacular appearance is the Sword-billed Hummingbird. I was able to observe and photograph it several times in Colombia in November 2024. <br> <br> Animals are friends, not food or a nuisance.<br> Stay healthy, happy and in love.

Felicity Shoulders<p>Me watching a dark movie with lots of murders set in Alaska (but filmed in the Canadian Rockies): “Huh, what kind of chickadee was that? Do they have any we don’t have in Oregon? The call was too brief for me to be sure if it was one I know! Oh yes, umm, murders. Yes.”</p><p>(Looked it up later and Alaska — and Canada — have several types I know, AND another, the Boreal Chickadee!)</p><p><a href="https://pie.gd/tags/birdNerd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdNerd</span></a></p><p><a href="https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/412884221" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">macaulaylibrary.org/asset/4128</span><span class="invisible">84221</span></a></p>

A-Dub 🥝<p>In 1995 there were just 51 kākāpō and the threat of losing them forever was all too real.
