Fourth installment in my brown bird series. This long-billed sandpiper is the largest North American shorebird. It spends the summer on the grasslands of the arid west, appearing on coastal mudflats only in migration and winter, and even then likely to be on prairies instead. It often occurs alongside the Marbled Godwit, which is very similar in size and color pattern; but the godwit's bill curves up, not down.
We found this one along the beach at Packery Channel on Padre Island, Texas.
Stork-Billed Kingfisher, Pelargopsis capensis, Pekaka Emas
This is a very large kingfisher, measuring up to 38 cm in length. The call of this species is noisy. Stork-billed kingfisher is a species of a variety of well-wooded habitats near lakes, rivers or coasts. It perches quietly whilst seeking food, and is often inconspicuous despite its size. It is territorial and will chase away eagles and other large predators. This species hunts fish, frogs, crabs, rodents and young birds. The nest is dig in a river bank, in the decaying tree, or maybe a tree termite nest.

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR VISITS, COMMENTS AND FAVES
THEY ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!
This was a bird I hoped we would get to see and photograph while in Manitoba. One evening we were driving along a dirt road and a bird flew across the road right in front of us nearly at eye level. I said to David who was driving that I thought that was a Black-billed Cuckoo. We pulled over and got out and sure enough heard one calling. It was perched close to the road for this shot, socked in some dense vegetation. We had a small opening in the vegetation to get this shot.

One of my favorite birds of the marsh, the pied-billed grebe swims in the deeper sections, occasionally diving under for fish.

Enjoyed a wonderful morning at Circle B Bar Reserve with our friends Mark and Linda Schocken during our recent trip to Florida. It was fun trying to photograph this Pied-billed Grebe against the relatively small area of reflections of these marsh marigolds. I just about managed it in this shot.
Taken at Circle B Bar Reserve, Lakeland, Florida.
As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.

The groove-billed ani (crotophaga sulcirostris) is a tropical bird in the cuckoo family with a long tail and a large, curved beak. It is a resident species throughout most of its range, from southern Texas, central Mexico and The Bahamas, through Central America, to northern Colombia and Venezuela, and coastal Ecuador and Peru. The groove-billed ani lives in small groups of one to five breeding pairs. They defend a single territory and lay their eggs in one communal nest. All group members incubate the eggs and care for the young.

There is one bird that seems to be everywhere, the Pied-billed Grebe. Pied Billed Grebes have an innocent baby like look, they are small, brown, ducklike birds, pied-billed grebes have thick bills with a dark ring in summer; the ring fades in winter. This Grebe swam right up to us so we snapped his photo.

152) Green-Billed Malkoha
Green-Billed Malkoha, Phaenicophaeus tristis, Cenuk Besar
This is a species of non-parasitic cuckoo found throughout South and Southeast Asia. The Green-billed Malkoha is the largest among Malkohas growing up to 60 cm long with very long tail. They are easily identified by its red skin around the eyee. This bird prefers forest edge, normally seen at roadside along the forest edges. This is a bird of the lowland jungle and swamp forest. But this one i shoot at Cameron Highlands, away from it usual habitat.
Cenuk Besar dibezakan dengan Cenuk lain oleh celak putih disekeliling kulit merah yang juga di sekeliling matanya. Saiznya juga lebih besar. Seperti Cenuk lain juga ia gemar menyusup di celah celah daun ketika mencari makan, menyukarkan peluang untuk mendapat gambar yang elok. Yang ini mungkin tidak perasan kehadiran saya, bertenggek sebentar di luar daun untuk diambil gambarnya.

Wikipedia: The yellow-billed cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus) is a member of the cuckoo family. Common folk names for this bird in the southern United States are rain crow and storm crow. These likely refer to the bird's habit of calling on hot days, often presaging rain or thunderstorms. The genus name is from the Ancient Greek kokkuzo, which means to call like a common cuckoo, and americanus means "of America".
Their breeding habitat is deciduous woods from southern Canada to Mexico and the Caribbean. They migrate to Central America and as far south as northern Argentina. This bird is a rare vagrant in western Europe.
Conservation status: Least Concern

A Ring-billed Gull (Larus delawarensis) adult arrives in the spring and roosts with other adults in preparation for selecting a mate and setting up a nesting territory on the appropriate wetland habitat. The staging site for these gullet this time was Hawrelak Park, a wetland and recreation area within the central portion of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
It is identifiable as a breeding adult because of the rosy hew or tinge in the breast feathers.
