I saw a totally unfamiliar bird on the river by my house today! Swans, ducks and the occasional geese and moorhens are the regulars, but this one was black and a little smaller than a Canada goose, with a pretty long thin beak. It didn’t seem interested in the seeds and peanuts I was throwing out for the ducks and swans, so maybe a fish eater? We have herons but I’ve never seen a black one before. & atm we have a lot of seagulls so maybe a visiting sea bird? Do you have any ideas?

i’m going to guess you saw a cormorant! they are fish eaters like you guessed, and currently migrating!

Would you be willing to do either a lorikeet or black palm cockatoo day? I work with both of these species in the summer at the zoo where I volunteer and have been missing my little friends. Also thanks for everything! Love the blog❤️

yes!! sorry you guys are a long-distance friendship! thank you!

Can I request photos of your favorite pigeon breeds and colors?(If you have any specific ones) Also, maybe some of the more uncommon and lesser known breeds if possible too, if you can think of any? Sincerely, a follower who cannot get enough of one of their favorite birds.;_;

hmm…i admittedly know more about species than breeds. some of my favorites are:

archangel

love the metallic sheen of the feathers!! my favorite colors are black-winged copper and full black

barb

any color…i love their funky eye rings, they look like the centers of daffodils. i don’t necessarily encourage their breeding, much like pugs, but they’re lovely nonetheless.

lahore

my favorite color is probably brown and white or silver and white. very aesthetically pleasing birds altogether though

old german owl

i REALLY want to own one of these someday…they are precious.
