For today’s #birdoftheday we have this juvenile #Osprey striking a pose. Yes this is a juvenile. Which, honestly, a very terrifying juvenile. #strikeapose #birdphotography #naturephotography #minnesotawildlife

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RedOrDead - bird captures with red but not on the bird, or a bird on dead branches. Here we have a #BeltedKingfisher, I had been trying to capture him for weeks but he always manages to fly right out of the corner of my eye. Caught him fishing a few days ago! #birdphoto

I was able to sit outside yesterday and grabbed this really cool and creepy crow! Kinda looks like the blue eye is staring at me #birdoftheday #photography #crow #bird #nature #wildlife #naturephotography

Crow blinking in a tree, looking a lil creepy, like a glassy eye staring at the photographer

Hello! I disappeared for a lil bit. Approaching week 4 of healing my broken shin bone and haven’t been able to frolick outside lately 🥲 3-4 more weeks to go, but in the meantime here is some frozen sea foam! #river #seafoam #naturephotography #patterns #abstractphotography

Foam and ice make cool patterns in a river

So funny story. I cracked my tibia skiing 😎 But it’s the perfect time to be hobbling around since it’s second winter in Minnesota and I should be right as rain by the time birds come back for realsies

I’d like everyone to know about this adorably cute deer I’ve named Fluffy McFluffertons. The urge to boop his nose. Look at him. He demands scritches #deer #woodlandfriends #boops #forestfriends #winterphotography #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #wisconsin

The most boopable deer in the world peers through the twigs and gives a smile

Even though it’s winter, and it’s kinda dead outside, a downy woodpecker usually makes an appearance #birdoftheday #speckles #bird #nature #wildlife #photography

#Birdoftheday is #snowycaptures Small birds, like this downy woodpecker, are the most grumpiest looking fluffy orbs. Like look at it. It’s grumpy, and it looks like a poofy tennis ball. #birds #borb #downywoodpecker #birdphotography #winterphotography #nature #minnesota #aftonstatepark

A downy woodpecker stares down the photographer, perched below birch branches. It’s a fluffy orb. A perfect borb.
