  1. One of my favourite bird shots, despite basically being a mistake. I was shooting a landscape with a short lens and slow shutter speed when this Channel-billed Cuckoo (Scythrops novaehollandiae) flew past.

  2. #NatureEscapes Day 4: Flamingos are lovely, dancers of the bird world. "Upside down" beaks let them filter Spirulina algae from alkaline lakes, like this one in #EmpakaaiCrater in Ngorongoro Conservation Area in #Tanzania, that turn them pink. They gather in places where water flow is limited, so their lakes end up smelling pretty awful, like rotten eggs.
