#shorb — Public Fediverse posts

By the way, I did not get any shots, but I saw a crow (might have been the same one each time) chasing killdeer twice and a sandpiper once. No chance of catching them on the wing: it seemed to me the crow was just up to mischief! 😈 #shorb #BirdPhotography #wetlands #Oregon #TualatinValley

Here are some shots of the least sandpipers from yesterday. I couldn't believe how close the few of them on my side of the lake came to me! So tiny, so brave. 😃

Lil’ peeps are so brave today I must call them the Most Sandpipers!

When I photographed a handful of long-billed dowitchers last week, I was struck by how prettily they arrange themselves into aesthetic overlapping attitudes when wading -- I was thinking the collective should be a 'frieze' of dowitchers.

This week there were even more of these dowitchers, so I collected some more interesting sculptural motifs!

This killdeer showed a real lack of situational awareness: came prancing up to me as if the chain link fence between us made me invisible! Maybe e was just very eager to be counted in the #GreatBackyardBirdCount!

Tiny sandpiper! They were all over the place.

@loren I had missed the whole shorb start though! Now I’m following both #shorb and #ShorbSeason and will absolutely be calling them shorbs moving forward! It tickles my brain and I like it. Like calling blueberries ‘bluebs’
