I haven’t been posting much on here recently because, well I’ve been editing a lot and been very busy.
But don’t worry, it’s about to get very naturey over here ASAP. 🦗🌊✨🌄🌲
↟
As a token of my gratitude, enjoy these Black-and-Red Broadbills (Cymbirhynchus macrorhynchos) from the Danum Valley in Malaysian Borneo. ↟
They are absolutely breathtaking and exquisite, I hope you like black and red on birds as much as I do! 😍😍

Today is a big day for @birdsbybijs! ↟ Remember

Western Bluebirds are charismatic cavity nesters,

Western Bluebirds are charismatic cavity nesters, susceptible to the housing crisis here in Los Angeles and beyond. .
↟
.
With the absence of a plethora of suitable nest cavities, and competition from invasive species like European Starlings, Bluebirds were once far less numerous. .
↟
.
However in recent years, thanks the dedication of local audubon chapters and conservation efforts, Bluebird nest boxes have been hung up in local parks and reserves. This has provided more suitable nest sites for these lovable passerines, and we’ve noticed their populations creeping back up!
💙🌿
Although this not the end all solution to the cavity housing crisis, it certainly has been helping!

Often traveling in wary groups called “coveys”, these plump beauties make a variety of sounds that signal their arrival and departure. .

One of the most recognizable of these vocalizations is their “CHicaGooo” call; often heard reverberating through canyon scrub habitat here in Los Angeles. ✨

From the flames of fire brings
the vigorous growth of rebirth. 🌿✨🔥
↟
The arid dry lands in California traditionally burned every 30-150 years. However, a strong history of fire suppression has resulted in out-of-control and catastrophic fires that incinerate our lands and leaves them scorched and damaged. ↟
Our internal state can be closely tied to this example. If we repress our feelings and choose not to let the flames of our feelings scorch the understory of our mind, clearing out the doubt and insecurities, the resulting impacts can be devastating and debilitating.
↟
Take the time to feel what you feel and honor the process, lean into nature to guide our journey.
↟
I look forward to all the rebirth and healthy growth that this new decade has in store for me.
↟
One thing that it has already brought is the official win of my @hippytree #52weeksofnature photo contest win!
↟
Stay tuned for the release of my t-shirt and a short Q&A about what inspires my photography!
↟
HUGE THANKS! To everyone who voted and shared my post!

Today I had the supreme opportunity to lead a private birding tour in the expansive and beautiful Palo Alto Baylands. We managed to observe all kinds of sweet bird behavior, talk about the Pacific Flyway, salt marsh ecology, and we even spotted a Ridgeway’s Rail during the King Tide event!

In total we saw 34 different species of birds and logged ~443 individuals!

Not a bad day in the Baylands, if you ask me! P.S. Swipe to see an American Avocet feeding in the mudflats in Slo-Mo •_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•

Long-billed Curlews (Numenius americanus) and Marb

Long-billed Curlews (Numenius americanus) and Marbled Godwit (Limosa fedoa) have flown up and down the Pacific Flyway for millions of years. Along their several thousand mile long migrations, they rely upon coastal wetland habitats to rest and refuel.
↟.
California is one of the most important stop over and overwintering locations for these cryptically plumed birds.
↟.
However we only have 9% of this precious wetland habitat remaining, forcing birds to pack into what habitat is left, or go elsewhere.
↟.
Curious what you can do to help defend and support this precious habitat? Check out your local Audubon chapter to see out what you can do to help preserve this critical habitat!

This year has been full of international travel.

This year has been full of international travel. Well, to be honest, that’s how the last six years since graduating college has been. However, 2019 in particular I logged lots of miles, connecting with landscapes once foreign to me, forming relationships that now feel like family, and seeing birds that live forever in my memories.
↟.
A question, I get a lot is, where is your favorite place you've ever been? in the past my response was often the Neo-tropics, because I mean let's be real, it is magical there!!
↟.
However, my answer has changed. I now am happy to tell people that it's here, in California! Every time I leave this ecologically diverse state, I'm increasingly excited and proud to return home. ↟.

Golden light floods the deep rust colored plumage

Golden light floods the deep rust colored plumage of this adult Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus) as it heads back to its roost for the evening.
↟
These adept hunters, are in the same genus of the more commonly seen Red-tailed Hawk, however these slightly smaller raptors occupy a different ecological niche.
↟
Red-shouldered Hawks live in dense woods with openings in the canopy. They feed heavily on reptiles, amphibians, small mammals and birds.
↟
You can also readily ID these handsome hunters by their call "keeyur keeyur keeyur" often repeated several times!
