Photograph of a small shore bird with gray and white feathers with a few black markings. The bird is bent down poking its beak to the wet sand as it searches for food.
Photograph of a trio of large sea ducks atop a dark, seaweed-coated rock just off shore, two seated and one standing. All have black-feathered bottoms and white-feathered tops, with an added cap of black feathers atop their heads that merge with their straight, orange bills.
Photograph of a sea snail on the sand. It has a round, spiral-striated shell that’s mostly a dark brown that lightens toward the upward spirals. The body of the snail itself is just visible beneath the shell with two striped feeler tentacles touching the sand as it moves.
Photograph of a white-sailed boat moving across blue rippling water with a clear blue horizon beyond it.

Cat birds! More first time IRL specimens for me this week. The super dark one is super unique, and was the first to show up. They seem to enjoy the cuties I put out for the Oriels. They only hung out for a day or so.

A more typical grey catbird perched on a shallow cup containing oranges. Its under tail orange can be seen.

Today is the most ridiculous day for #BackyardBirding! First a rose-breasted grosbeak at our feeder (first time we’ve seen one IRL), then a full-color goldfinch, and just now a Baltimore oriole showed up at the hummingbird feeder. First time getting photos of a BO. YAYYY 🤩

Also, Mr and Mrs Bluey (our eastern bluebird couple) have been hanging out, too.

April 27 is #InternationalCrowAndRavenAppreciationDay

Highly intelligent, ravens can use tools and solve problems. They have a wide and complex range of vocal and non-vocal sounds. These two ravens exchanged a piece of wood and also some kelp on the shoreline of Vancouver Island. Photo and text from my book: Wild Vancouver Island.

Starfish

Bit of a surprise in a tidal pool. No waterproof kit so shots from above the pool.
