FLIGHT OF THE IBIS--- Some birds seem to belong to an ancient civilization long ago. That's how I feel about the colorful, iridescent white-faced ibis. The gilded wings of this pair glowed in the light as they flew over the marshlands in the Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge along the California and Oregon border. #your_best_birds #allmightybirds #birdfreaks #anythingfeathered #feather_perfection #igbirdfreaks #ig_birdwatchers #birdextreme #udog_feathers #nuts_about_birds #kings_birds #bb_of_ig #tgif_aviary #bestbirdshots #ig_discover_birdslife #eye_spy_birds #bird_brilliance #bns_birds #planetbirds #igbirds #birdsofinstagram #audubonsociety #majestic_wildlife_ #naturesbestphotomagazine #pocket_birds
FROZEN FLIGHT---- I saw parallels between these Northern Pintail ducks frozen in flight and the an impressionistic visual style perhaps frozen in time. I thought the photo of these duck during a snow storm in rural Southern Oregon brings back elements of the 19th century movement that breaks a few rules while conveying a moment and experience to the human spirit. Hope you enjoy it. #your_best_birds #allmightybirds #birdfreaks #anythingfeathered #feather_perfection #ig_birdwatchers #birdextreme #udog_feathers #nuts_about_birds #kings_birds #bestbirdshots #ig_discover_birdslife #eye_spy_birds #bird_brilliance #planetbirds #igbirds #birdsofinstagram #audubonsociety #majestic_wildlife_ #naturesbestphotomagazine #pocket_birds #youroregon #traveloregon #oregonexplored #bestoforegon #cascadiaexplored #exploreoregon #1859oregon #backyardbend #jj_oregon
Hot Pursuit--- On a recent visit to the Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Oregon, what appears to be a Brewer's Blackbird steadily chases a raven who is flying away with a large egg in it's beak. The raven was able to get away with it's prize. #your_best_birds #allmightybirds #birdfreaks #anythingfeathered #feather_perfection #igbirdfreaks #ig_birdwatchers #birdextreme #udog_feathers #nuts_about_birds #kings_birds #bb_of_ig #tgif_aviary #bestbirdshots #ig_discover_birdslife #eye_spy_birds #bird_brilliance #bns_birds #planetbirds #igbirds #birdsofinstagram #audubonsociety #majestic_wildlife_ #naturesbestphotomagazine #pocket_birds #oregonexplored #traveloregon #cascadiaexplored #1859oregon #jj_oregon
