Black Oystercatcher (Haematopus bachmani) making her last rounds before the sun drops for the night. ✨💫🌊
↟
Did you know that the unique iris shape found in Oystercatchers is actually linked to their gender? Females have strongly defined “eye flecks” whereas males are poorly defined or non-existent.
↟
Have you noticed their interesting eyes before? 👀

Howdy folks! I’ve collaborated with @planta.triste on a few prints to raise funds for the Havasupai Tribe Covid-19 Relief Fund. Half of the sales will be donated directly to their GoFundMe. The Havasupai reservation is at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, and their main source of income comes from tourism, which has been suspended due to the pandemic. A large percent of the community is elderly and/or vulnerable to Coronavirus.

The other half will be divided between me and Tania, so you will be supporting native folks and two artists of color!

Picked up a couple sweet birds for the ABA yesterday!
↟
First two images are of the continuing Curlew Sandpiper in Santa Bárbara County. This long-distance migrant nests in the high arctic Siberia and winters on the southern coasts of Africa and Australia.
↟
This very rare bird is easy to overlook as it looks extremely similar to the common and widespread Dunlin.
↟
Most of the field marks to separate the two similar species are quite subtle, however the prominent white rump patch devoid of a brown central line is a definitive field mark. You can see this field mark in image two.
↟
The third image also features a rare bird in North America. Closely related to Pipits, this White Wagtail is an extremely common bird throughout Eurasia, yet is quite rare in the lower 48. These tail bobbing ground birds can only be found reliably in Alaska where a small breeding population exists.
↟
I thought the White Wagtail was a lifer, but I had actually observed it in on a birding trip to India back in 2012! Who knew!?
↟
Any rate, I hope y’all are well and are registered to vote! #aukthevote
