Part of a sequence. A Great Blue Heron eating a dead grackle he found. It wasn't easy. Kept falling and re-trying. Took him almost 20 minutes to get it down.

A hawk landed on one of the hives a little while ago. The bee yard is surrounded by nature, so we share the space.

"Oregon gets its first California condor visit in 122 years"

opb.org/article/2026/06/02/ore…

"A California condor flew into Oregon last month, becoming the first free-flying condor documented in the state since 1904.

Condor B9, a little more than two years old, was released into the wild last year by the Yurok Tribe’s condor restoration program. The tribe has been releasing condors since 2022."

A woman wearing coveralls and gloves (Yurok Wildlife Department Technician Sandra Hahn) has her arms out after releasing a condor. The condor, a large brown bird with a B9 tag on its wing, is flying away from her.

"Oregon gets its first California condor visit in 122 years" by Jefferson Public Radio (NPR Medford) via Oregon Public Broadcasting OPB (PBS Portland) - The California Condor is a large bird with a wingspan almost like a small aircraft. (I've heard California glider pilots' stories of condors circling in the same thermals with them.) Another step in bringing the species back from the brink of extinction is expansion back to habitats previously occupied. opb.org/article/2026/06/02/ore… #wildlife #PNW

Photograph of a cow moose browsing in a boreal forest understory in Denali National Park, Alaska. The moose stands in profile facing right, head lowered to feed on small leafing shrubs. The coat is dark brown with lighter coloring on the face and neck. Spruce trees frame the background, which is soft and out of focus.
Photograph of a snowshoe hare in mid-molt in Denali National Park, Alaska. The hare sits among low tundra shrubs and ground cover, its coat showing a patchy mix of brown summer fur coming in over the remaining white winter coat. The feet and underside retain more white. The ears show white outer edges with brown inner coloring.
Photograph of two black scoters swimming on Horseshoe Lake in Denali National Park, Alaska. The bird in the foreground is a male — entirely black with a distinctive yellow-orange knob at the base of the bill. The bird in the background is a female, brown with a pale cheek patch and a smaller bill. The water surface reflects muted green and brown tones.
Close-up photograph of a cow moose face partially obscured by spruce branches and bare shrubs in Denali National Park, Alaska. The moose looks upward, its large dark eye, broad pale muzzle, and wide ears visible through the vegetation. The background is soft and out of focus with muted greens and oranges.

Always amazed at the places birds find to nest.
It took a while to discover this Great Tits chosen location.

#birds #BirdsOfMastodon #nature #wildlife #darktable

A great Tit flying down past the finial on top of a slightly broken garden feature. In the bill is a green caterpillar.
The bird has turned in the air and is facing toward the finial with wings outstretched.
The bird has landed on the top of a square post that supports the finial and is looking down below the broken top of the post.
The Bird is now disappearing into the hole, with tail pointing skyward.

😔 #Happy, #BronxZoo #Elephant at Center of #AnimalRights Case, Died this week at 55

Activists had sued in a bid to secure her the fundamental human right to bodily liberty. #Zoo officials said she was well cared for & called the lawsuit frivolous. Yet, Happy was euthanized after a period of hospice care, prompted by a recent deterioration in her health.

Male Blue Rock Thrush (eastern subspecies, Monticola solitarius philippensis), Asia and the western Pacific. While they like cliffs, hillsides, ravines for nesting, they'll settle for old brick buildings, concrete structures & quarries. #birds #wildlife #biology #nature #photo #ecology
A profile shot of a male Blue Rock Thrush perched atop a light, rugged stone. It has a sharp, dagger-like dark beak and a curious black eye. Its head, back, and upper breast are coated in a vibrant, slate-blue plumage. This cool tone sharply shifts mid-belly to a deep, warm rufous-rust color that extends down to its undertail. Its wings are a darker, dusky charcoal-blue.

In some kind of outdoor shopping center, there is a little island for plants with a statue of a coyote in it. A sign next to it says "FAKE COYOTE - GOOSE DETERRENT." In the background two Canada geese are strolling around totally unbothered.

Queen of Wands One of my tarot cards. We are in the hot desert. Seeing a strong lioness, the queen of the desert, leader of her own thoughts, lying majestical on a tree protecting a small black kitten. The wand with a sunflower rank can be found next to these two free and independent souls. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Queen-of-Wands-793101522

Majestic birds. They have a larger wingspan than most birds of prey in our region.

A white stork resting in a large nest of intertwined branches, illuminated by soft daylight against a pale blue sky. The bird’s bright red beak and dark eye markings stand out against its white feathers, while the low-angle perspective gives the scene a calm, dignified presence.
