Unfortunately, I have heard that this instance, "med-mastodon" will close sometime soon. As a result, this will be my last post to this instance. The good news is that I have another site at "https://mastodon.social/@carpingdiem". If you have been enjoying my pictures, I hope to see you there. #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photography #nature #naturephotography #HoosierMast

I'm trying to get over my "cold" (not flu or COVID) and failing. In the meantime, the temperature has varied from 20F to 70F (-7C to 21C). The attached video clip is of the bluebirds at the feeder in the cold and the next clip (in the comments) is the bluebirds at the feeder in warm weather. #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photography #nature #naturephotography #HoosierMast #video

Ich hatte das große Glück und Privileg im Sommer 2023 bei einer Reise nach Svalbard Eisbären beobachten zu dürfen. 16 verschiedene Begegnungen in 10 Tagen, im Eis, an Land, im Wasser.
Zum „International Polar Bear Day“ gibt es von mir eine kleine Auswahl.

Eisvogel / Kingfisher

#nature #naturephotography #birds #kingfisher #wildlife #wildlifephotography #summer

A photograph of a kingfisher sitting on a tree branch. The branch spans the whole frame, with the bird sitting in the middle of the frame, body with its orange breast facing the camera and head looking left, showing its long beak and striking blue feather on the chin, head and shoulders.

The bird is surrounded by green leaves, most of the out of focus, but some of the to the right are in sharp focus.

Zwei farbenprächtige Eisvögel sitzen auf einem moosbewachsenen Ast inmitten eines unscharfen, grünen Waldhintergrunds. Ihr Gefieder schimmert türkisblau auf dem Rücken und leuchtend orange an Brust und Bauch. Beide Vögel blicken aufmerksam in entgegengesetzt.

Two vividly colored kingfishers perch on a moss-covered branch against a softly blurred green woodland background. Their plumage shows shimmering turquoise-blue backs and bright orange chests and bellies. Both birds gaze alertly in opposite directions.

Saw a report of a hybrid Eurasian x American Wigeon, so had to go get pictures.

#CarsonCity #Nevada #Birds #Birding #BirdWatching #Wildlife #NaturePhotography #WildlifePhotography #BirdPhotography #BirdsOfMastodon #AmericanWigeon

A small wigeon standing in the snow. It's head has the American "swoosh" but it is red in color instead of green. A long yellow-white stripe goes down its forehead to a grey bill with a black tip. He has a light grey brown body and white belly with a bright white stripe on the folded wing.

He has a light grey brown body and white belly with a bright white stripe on the folded wing. Black and brown tail feathers stick out behind the bird.

A group of wigeons feed in a space where the snow has melted to reveal the low grass. In front is an American wigeon with its head raised, showing the green sides. Behind him is the hybrid wigeon with a reddish head below the white stripe.

Spider-Raccoon, Spider-Raccoon,
Does whatever a Spider-Raccoon does.
Can he swing from a web?
I really hope not because,
Look out, he is a Spider-Raccoon!

I am beginning to suspect that the AC Repair person might not be qualified. Something roguish, banditryish even about this little creature.

Kettu saalistusreissulla – Fox on a hunting trip
Koskikarojen ruokailupaikoilla jään reunamilla näkyy paljon ketunjälkiä ja tässä yksi niiden tekijöistä. Ketut ovat kaikkiruokaisia ja vesien äärellä on lintujen lisäksi mm. jyrsijöitä ja näätiä (lumikko, kärppä, minkki), joita voi yrittää saalistaa. Koskikarat ovat edelleen tallella. :)
(02/2026)
At the feeding places of white-throated dippers, you can see a lot of fox tracks on the edges of the ice, and here is one of their makers. Foxes are omnivores, and in addition to birds, there are rodents and mustelids (weasels, stoats, minks) that can be hunted by the waters. The white-throated dippers are still there. :-)
