I was down in Florida for a few days to escape the cold weather. There were so many burrowing owls there, but it's really difficult to get a clean shot due to buildings, cars, fences, etc... I do like the way this one turned out though.

"We found that the number of birds on the mixed-habitat solar farms was typically twice that of the intensively managed sites, and three times higher than adjacent high-yielding cropland. The number of species on mixed-habitat solar farms was 2.5 times higher than both of the alternatives"

Mountain Hare

From a great few hours spent watching and admiring this obliging individual on the hills of the Scottish Highlands.

They have such beautiful eyes.

An average adult pelican pouch can carry up to 11 liters/3 gallons of water or up to 11 kg/24 pounds of fish, more than their stomach. So they’re kind of lunch boxes with wings. #birds #birdsofmastodon #nature #ecology #wildlife #photography #NotMyPersonalPhoto #biology #sunset

#Introduction #Astrodon I’m an astronomer at a regional university with an outreach program. When I have time for research, it’s archaeology of dead stars (supernovae). My nom de plume is to make clear my opinions are not associated with my institutions. I like #wildlife and animals, #history , #SocialJustice , geekery like #DnD, #Poetry (a dabbler), humor (punster), and interests too numerous to list. I’m part of the 🐦➡️ #MastodonMigration, but trying to be respectful of the community.

El bec de corall (Estrilda astrild) és un petit ocell exòtic originari de l'Àfrica subsahariana. A Catalunya, com en altres parts d'Europa, s'ha introduït principalment a través del comerç d'aus ornamentals. La seva expansió requereix vigilància per evitar impactes negatius en la fauna local.

In Svalbard, where ice bears now roam,
Their names and their habits are known.
With precision and care,
Tracking them with great flair,
In icy landscapes they call home.

Fascinated by Northern flickers since I 1st learned they exist. The spot pattern on their chest (not seen here) looks JUST like the holes they make in trees! Remarkable coloring & that shock of red! Was lucky to catch this beauty drinking from the Iowa River in 2023.

Photograph of a northern flicker standing on a bark-less dead tree branch that is partially submerged in dark brown water. The flicker is facing away from the camera and has turned its head to the right in profile leaving one eye visible. The flicker has a water droplet running down its beak indicating it has just taken a drink. Flickers have brown back and tail feathers with black barring and scalloping, yellow undertail and underwing feathers, light brown abdomen and chest feathers with black spotting, a prominent black bib, tan neck and face feathers, gray head feathers with a vivid red crescent across the back of the head, a long black patch next to the beak, a slightly curved black beak, and gray legs and feet.

Photography. A color photo of two foxes at night against an urban backdrop. Two foxes, one small and one large, can be seen from behind as they trot side by side towards a residential area. The smaller fox is looking at the larger one. The photo was taken from a hiding place close to the ground. Streetlights with round lamps, houses and street trees can be seen out of focus. The photo has a warm brown coloration and a wonderful aura, as you become a companion of the photographer who is secretly observing the two. Info: The photographer: "This fox family has had a den under an abandoned building in downtown Whitehorse for several years.... They are very curious about people, which sometimes makes it difficult to photograph them. A couple years ago I had a GoPro set up in front of their burrow, and one of the little guys stole it before I could react. If they ever tear this old building down, I'd be so curious to see what they've collected over the years..."

High levels of #ToxicChemicals found in #BrunswickMaine airport hangar #sewers

#CitizenPFAS monitoring revealed concerning levels of toxic chemicals in the sewer outfall of #Hangar6 in Brunswick, though a company hired to assess risk at the hangar said there is no leak of the toxic firefighting foams on the premises.

by Kristian Moravec, The Times Record
Posted February 4, 2025, Updated February 5

"A citizens group’s testing revealed that sewer water flowing from Hangar 6 at Brunswick’s airport has high levels of harmful per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, better known as PFAS.

"#FriendsOfMerrymeetingBay conducted testing on Nov. 26. The tests detected high levels of a particularly toxic #PFAS chemical compound known as #PFOS. The update comes the same day the owner of the hangar, the #MidcoastRegionalRedevelopmentAuthority, sent a letter to the town stating that tanks that stored the chemicals were not leaking.

"PFOS is a compound known to be harmful to human health and is found in high levels in aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF). Brunswick Executive Airport’s Hangar 4, which is owned by the Navy but operated by MRRA, dumped 1,450 gallons of AFFF concentrate mixed with 50,000 gallons of water on Aug. 19, 2024.

"The spill prompted ongoing cleanup and monitoring efforts as well as a push to get rid of the foam at the airport. Concern has grown around Hangar 6, which some have speculated is leaking harmful chemicals based on the testing data around the airport that Friends of Merrymeeting Bay has collected over the years. The sewage that flows out of Hangar 6, which is not treated for PFAS, ultimately flows into the #AndroscogginRiver."

[Thread] Unfortunately, South Dakota #HB1258 was defeated [which would have put more restrictions on #LithiumMining]... And I knew Burgum would betray #NativeAmericans (even though he promised not to).

‘Unleashing American Energy’: Mining and Drilling Accelerated Under Trump Administration

By Angelica (Angie) Solloa • February 12, 2025

"You may have heard that #DebHaaland (Laguna Pueblo) transitioned out of her role as the US Secretary of the Department of Interior and announced her candidacy for Governor New Mexico. Her successor, former North Dakota Governor #DougBurgum, is steadfast in carrying out Trump’s Executive Order 14154 '#UnleashingAmericanEnergy' which aims to accelerate #mining and drilling on federal and #TribalLands.

"On February 3rd, Doug Burgum released this document which outlines all the revoked projects and programs intended to protect land and the people; giving a pathway for #MiningCompanies to hit the ground running across Turtle Island.

"In the #BlackHills, the #SacredLands of the #Lakota Peoples’, mining and drilling companies aren’t hesitating to cash out. Currently, South Dakota House Bill 1258 is under consideration by the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee, where it will come to a vote this Thursday, February 13th. Community members and citizens of the area were given just six days’ notice.

WHAT IS HB 1258?

"The passage of South Dakota House Bill 1258 would hold lithium mining to the same standards and laws as silver and gold. Under the current law, lithium mining is treated like mining for sand and gravel, and there are not enough protections for human #health, #food systems, #water, #wildlife, and the #land.

"HB 1258 would offer more accountability and appropriate processes for mining companies that would better protect the land, the people, and the economy of the #Ȟesápa. #NDNCollective, alongside partner the #BlackHillsCleanWaterAlliance, collaborated to spread the word as fast as possible, calling on relatives to swiftly take action ahead of Thursday, February 13th."

This is a black and white of a tiger with laid back ears, eyes closed to slits, slightly open catch , whiskers stretched out, its big paws on a trunk of wood - hidden behind some kind of plant … Behind the striped coat of the cats body are different shades of rock. Both plant and rock are something you can only guess on - since the focus is on the cat.

📷 by Artist: #ThuTrang (チャン) 🇻🇳 in Loc.: #Hokkaido Shibetsu Sibet City, Japan 🇯🇵 - Title: "Siberian flying squirrel" 🐿️🪽 - #Art #Streetart #Squirrel #Artist #Wildlife #Fotografie #Photography ➡️ #APhotoLove
Photography. A color photo of a Siberian flying squirrel in a snowy fork in a tree. The fur of the small animal is yellow-grey on the upper side and white on the underside. It has a small face with large, alert eyes, a button nose and long whiskers. It sits there with its paws in front of its belly and looks directly into the camera. It looks as if it is happy. A very cute and shy animal that is difficult to get in front of the camera. Info: The Siberian flying squirrel (Pteromys volans) is slightly smaller than the squirrel at around 14 - 20 cm. It is a gliding squirrel that can glide up to 80 meters through the air with its densely hairy flying skin from the carpus to the ankle. They are nocturnal and feed on berries, nuts, fruit, leaves and bark.

In the twilight his massive silhouette could be seen. He was there, very close to me and I could hear his breathing. In this no man's land, as autumn approaches, nature could not offer me a more beautiful encounter.

Buteo buteo (Common buzzard / Mäusebussard)

#birds #wildlife #nature #birdphotography #birdsofmastodon #raptors #birdwatching
A medium sized bird with mostly brown plumage, that has some white speckles on the underside. More white around the neck, resembling a white collar, which is typical (although not always present) in the otherwise rather variable colouration of this species. Its feet and the upper part of its beak are yellow. The bird is perched on a horizontal branch, which has small patches of moss growing on it. It stands on one leg, while the other is tucked close to its body, mostly hidden beneath its feathers, likely to conserve warmth.
