Huh, My Toes Are Weird!

Look, I’m a Statue

Scratch That Itch

Pretending to be an Eagle

Bird Yoga

I’m Sexy and I Know It!

I had the great fortune to watch an Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) preen after it took a dip in the nearby creek. It took ages as this fish hawk carefully used its sharp beak to fluff and zip each feather.

It was so involved in the ritual that it didn’t seem to mind my close proximity. I was mesmerized by the bird’s actions, though with crisscrossed legs and awkward poses, I can’t say the process was anything close to graceful.
