A bird that is black with startlingly red feathers around the neck, rising to the top of the head, and a band of red between the body and tail. It is perched on a log placed for feeding, and a slice of papaya is visible to the left.

🪶 Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social says today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Black&Red, so it's back to #costarica for this crimson-collared tanager (another tanager for you, @oldpostie.bsky.social). #birds #photography

A tiny butterfly is on an orange milkweed bloom. The butterfly is a very light gray with black spots and some orange towards the end of the wings, which have a small extension, a "tail".

🦋 Skipping the arachnids this morning and going for an eastern tailed-blue #butterfly for #macromonday. Have as good a Monday as you can - they're better when you're retired, just sayin'. #photography #macro

A male mallard splashing in a green pond. The duck has gray wings, a white belly, reddish-brown chest and neck, green head, and a yellow bill.

Good morning, Bluesky 🦋…

Happy Sunday ☕️🌿💛🌳✨

#nature #trees

A cloudy sky illuminates in orange colors over the trees. The trees are leafless and silhouetted with some houses nestled beneath the trees.

Good morning friends! Happy Sunday! It’s drizzling, foggy and more rain is coming. This #SunriseMagic is from November. Have a great day and get outside if you can! #CTShoreline #landscape #photography

I suppose that I can use this one for #BirdoftheDay since the egret is showing me some tail #feathers. This was taken at South Padre Island Birding Center where I saw numerous White Morphs.

Ladybug on wild Vetch. This is a key host plant for Eastern Tailed-Blue butterflies. More to come on that later…

Eastern Tailed-Blue butterfly depositing her eggs on wild Vetch, the host plant for their caterpillars. I have never photographed them laying eggs before today. Exciting. There are dozens of Blues throughout our meadows right now. Obviously, many more to come…

Pearl Crescent butterfly checking me out during my stroll in our upper meadow. She kept flying around and landing near me. Love the texture of the grass, clover and dandelion flower around her. 🧡💚

Love the diptych of this gorgeous Pearl Crescent butterfly in our upper meadow during the golden hour.

I have been showing more diptychs today to show both sides of butterfly wings. I hope you enjoy them.

A beautiful wood runabout with lots of gratuitous chrome, tied up at a dock. Earl Barnes was a premier Canadian builder who built some of the finest runabouts and launches during the 1920's and 1930's. His boats are known for the high quality of craftsmanship and custom hardware.

The river sure does look high! It better not get much higher. I haven't seen the exhibit yet, but I better get down there!!

I had to laugh when you said you checked on the river because I just checked on it a couple days ago.😂😂 And Gretel is so adorable, btw!🐾
