I took my little 60mm macro out yesterday and had a very nice walk in the gardens. It's always been one of my favorite lenses but since I can't really capture distant birds with it I don't take it out as much as I should. 😀 #RoseWednesday #Flowers #Bloomscrolling #Photography #Roses

A single purple/pink rose grows in front of green leaves below it and blurry browns further back.

One of the roadrunner kidlets made a quick visit at 4:15. Showing off a fine spiky do! Snacks were had on the patio. Probably BT , if so, rapidly going from BrokenTailfeathers to BeautifulTailfeathers! #birds

A roadrunner is standing tall on a backyard fence. A blurry hillside is beyond, a patch of green trees can be seen.

A small raptor with its back to the camera and head turned to the left, is perched on a bare, weathered branch. The background is a featureless brilliant blue sky.

Golden aspens glow among dense evergreens beneath a towering, shadowed red-rock cliff, whose layered face is broken by ledges and scattered trees.

Tanager of the Day: Beryl-spangled Tanager 📷 Andres Vasquez Noboa

Photo of bird perched on a branch, description from ebird: ‘Small tanager found in Andean subtropical zone from Venezuela to Bolivia. Unmistakable: entire body boldly spotted with bright blue-green, sharply contrasting with black mask and back. No other tanager has such a spangled appearance. Sexes alike. A fairly common member of mixed flocks from around 1,500–2,500 m, within forest and also at edges or in second growth.’

Peanut Specialist Both the male and female red‑bellied woodpeckers were at the feeders the morning I captured this image. This photo is of the female, who was carefully studying and digging through the piles of seed to find the perfect peanut.

"The image portrays a female, red-bellied woodpecker perched on a branch amidst lush green foliage. The bird has predominantly gray plumage with black and white stripes across her back and wings. Notably, she sports a vibrant red patch on the back of her head, a distinctive mark of many woodpeckers. She clutches a peanut at the end of her beak. The blurred background accentuates the bird as the focal point." - Microsoft Copilot with edits

Saw some fantastic old trees on my hike yesterday. #photography #landscape #hiking #utah

Gnarled ancient limber pines growing on a mountainside, overlooking a steep-sided valley, with mountain ranges off in the distance in the haze.
