Flock of about 40, munching fruit like there's no tomorrow.

Pair bonding with what appeared to be tree buds.

My first sighting of the year! There were four!

There was a pod of Northern Bottlenose Whales in Garelochhead for a few weeks, unfortunately none of the pod survived.

This containment pond area in a Roseville business park was filled with auricomus visiting Monarda - easily over 20. This was the largest one of them.

There were at least three, maybe four.

On cultivated Quercus stellata

There have been a lot of glossy ibis this year. Earlier in February, my mother counted 14 and another day 21 in this pond.

I was standing at the shore and it flew in from the other side of the lake, landing almost next to me! There is a nesting pair.

I counted 25, but couldn't fit them all in the picture.

These were abundant in the area.

This observation is for the orange fungus. The fruiting structures were very dry when I took the photo.. The spores are from a tape mount. I measured one spore at about 15 µm long by 5 µm wide.

Possibly one of the same individuals seen on Saturday. They are so uncommon here, I want to photograph every observation.
