If you think your job is a headache, try being a professional tree-puncher. 🪵🌳 Name: Rufous woodpecker (Micropternus brachyurus) #borneo #birds #addBirder #forest #borneolocaljourney #woodpecker #wildlife
A rufous woodpecker is seen clinging to a pale tree trunk high in a tropical forest canopy. Broad green leaves frame the scene, while soft daylight filters through gaps in the foliage. The bird’s warm brown plumage and red crown stand out clearly against the sky and surrounding branches.

🐒 Did you know? The Red Leaf Monkey loves to chill in the treetops and snack on young leaves all day! 🌿 #Borneo #Wildlife #WildlifePhotography #Animals #EastCoastKin #EastKalimantan #Indonesia #mammalsofborneo #redleafmonkey #maroonlangur #presbytisrubicunda #animalphotography @alttext.bsky.social
A red leaf monkey (Endemic to Borneo's Rainforests) sits on a tree branch in a tropical forest. Its long, reddish-brown fur looks soft and slightly untidy. The dark face and pale eyes are clearly visible. One arm rests on the branch while the body leans forward. The background is green and softly blurred, which keeps the monkey in clear focus.

Iqo was rescued in 2022 after months kept as a pet. She arrived tired and thin, then grew strong with steady care. Now she is four and thriving in Forest School as she learns the skills she will need to return to the wild. 🤎 #borneo #orangutan (Footage: @orangutan_survival)

One thing I love about BlueSky, the calmness. I can scroll without auto-playing videos or random voices. No flashy animations trying to grab my attention. Just pictures, words, and space. Here, there's breathing room, space for ideas, for connections to deepen. My brain needs this. It feels good.
