Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #ABCD, any bird name with any of these letters. American Bittern gets 2 points! Second time seen in person, way better photos. LOVE how he tipped his head ALL the way up so he could get a good binocular look at me - truly engineered for his fishing style.

Its from a couple years ago and not a stunning pic, but a fond memory. The Indigo Buntings have not been around for a couple years now and I can't help but wonder what happened to them. 💙 #BirdOfTheDay #YourChoice

Today's #BirdOfTheDay Theme is #LookingAtYou, any bird staring at you [I have no idea who decides the theme, but I've seen several, so I'll add mine]. Happy to have lugged the big lens along on this hike in Acadia Nat'l Park a couple years ago. Cooper's Hawk looking for lunch.

At first I was intrigued by the lone white flower (double daffodil?) in the middle of what will be a bunch of deep purple irises. When I checked it out I found it has a resident crab flower spider. So I got the macro lens out for some better shots of her.

So gorgeous. I've never been diving - is it this colorful and vibrant to your eyes, or (like aurora) does the camera see better than we can?
