It landed on my leg and hung out for a while. :inaturalist: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/208975000 i was looking through some old pictures and found these from when i monitored nesting black skimmers on the beach about 10 years ago. look at these little fluff balls!

i love skimmers so much, what strange looking creatures. i wish i had a recording of what these colonies sounded like though. it was an absolute cacophony lmao @loren I used to see them fairly often where I used to live, and loved seeing the skimming in action. Magic. It wasn’t until years later I saw a photo of what they look like end-on. Had no idea their bills were so narrow! Awesome. @loren What, woah, who are these guys with the Flintstones beaks and why have I never been aware of them before?

@loren @she_goes_on #birdsofmastodon #aberdeen Last spring newly arrived swallows had to take shelter from gale force winds and torrential rain under the eaves of our block of flats. One one was found dead on our veranda, the poor thing was covered in ticks. for #FungiFriday i have probably the coolest fungus i’ve ever seen. thanks to everyone who helped me ID it on here a while back i now know these things to be the incredibly named Crystal Brain Fungus #CrystalBrainFungus #fungi #fungus #mushrooms #mushtodon |
