Hi folks, just cannot pass up behavior like this with all species. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by.
We found this big fella/gal, and five of his/her friends taking advantage of the first rays of sun in three days. The Nature Conservancy Cheyenne Bottoms Preserve, Kansas.
Eastbourne, Sussex. First twitch of the year, found the day before around bushes on a cul-de-sac on the edge of town. Nice early start to get down just after first light, showed 6 times while i was there. North American vagrant with some 29 previous records, really a thrush rather than a robin (same size as a blackbird).
I love how some birds have plumage that mimics their habitat - like this Bittern trying to blend into the reeds surrounding him.

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment and favoring my images. Enjoy the day.
American Bitterns winter in SE Texas. Some years we see several, other years not so much.
This was my first decent look this season. I thought I was done for the day, but came across this bird on my way back to the car. I can't resist a bittern. Brazos Bend State Park in SE Texas 11/2022.
American Wigeon drake at the Choptank River in Maryland.
These ducks have very beautiful reticulated feather patterns.

I snapped this American Crocodile from a boat, on the Tempisque river, in the Palo verde nature reserve, Costa Rica. It was mid-rainy season, so the river was in flood & quite fast-flowing, with the water very high up into the tree line. As there were very few exposed mud banks, I wasn't sure whether we'd see any crocodiles, but we did see a few & I got lucky with this one. It seemed happy enough to pose for us here. This species can grow to 5 metres in length & have been known to attack humans, so I took care not to lean out too far from the boat with my camera.
Costa Rica - October 2019.
This beautiful bird and its mate were seen at a remote cattle pond in the middle of nowhere Emery County Utah in early June. It seemed like an interesting place for these birds to nest.
Wrapping up my series with arguably the most elegant of shorebirds. This American Avocet was found in nice morning light at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge, Utah.
American Pipit - Mt Evans, Colorado
This is a better photography of the this species than the one I had previously posted. The previous post was Bird Species (# 138) that I photographed and placed on my Flickr Photostream. Overall goal is 1000.
The Lamar Valley at Yellowstone, America's Serengeti. I never thought I'd gaze out at a line of dozens of bison in my lifetime. The comeback of the American Bison, thank-you National Park Service!
