Alas many are dying on the beaches up north of starvation.

Sadly a lot of Murres are ending up at rescues. Their food sources are not there due to the warming of the water due to the huge El Niño event.

These are both dark eyed juncos, one is found in the western states and the other eastern states. No googling allowed, what’s your guess on which is one is eastern vs western? #birds #nature

Hope you love hummingbirds, we do!! And it’s amazing the watch all the Anna’s feeding on the nectar of all the trees. In these photos, in all but one, they are feeding on the nectar of the strawberry trees. These birds are everywhere in Cambria 🤓❤️ #birds #Cambria #Calif #CentralCoast

She comes to the seed log at least once a day, and she always announces when she has arrived, something which we always find amusing. Pileated Woodpecker #Birds #Birding #Nature #Photography #PhotographersUnited #CanonPhotography #R5Mark2 🪶 🌿 #birdsofbluesky

It is why devices that use memory or storage chips will cost a lot more money now and moving forward.

I was comparing prices on a CF Express Card Type B I bought for my camera in 2024 compared to what it cost today, there has been a 159% increase in the price in two years. Anyone want to guess why? #photography
