Looking up
After several days of being blanketed with thick smoke from the western U.S. wildfires we saw a bit of an improvement yesterday. This young female Belted Kingfisher looks up at the smoky sky, where you could just make out the sun for the first time in a while.
The impact of these large fires on humans is considerable, but it must be absolutely devastating to wildlife. Let's hope for a favourable change in weather to help those trying to cope with these awful fires.
