#SeabirdSaturday / #SeabirderSaturday One of the birding highlights of 2022…I cannot describe the absolute soul-filling, joyful delight of seeing (& hearing) these birds soar overhead once again. Here’s to many more incredible sightings & encounters for 2023! • • • Red-tailed Tropicbirds (Phaethon rubricauda), along the cliffs near Makapu’u Point, southeastern shore of O’ahu, Hawai’i, July 2022. (Thank you @breadcoot & @nanea1998 for letting me know they were still being seen at Maks during my visit, & to Valerie Cox for joining me on a bird adventure, despite not being a birder herself. Didn’t get a snap of my favourite lifer of the year, Hawaiian Stilt, though, since I only caught a momentary glimpse at my brother @dpflo33's & @brittani.hi_flo's wedding!)

Black Tern (Chlidonias niger) in Long Point this month. Black Terns breed in wetlands where they create a nest out of dead vegetation, usually far from shore. They're actually one of the most social Terns, nesting in large flocks but this Tern I saw was alone. During the Winter, they migrate to the sea coasts of North, Central and South America where their diet is mostly made up of fish that they dive and catch out of the ocean. In the wetlands where they breed, fish make up some of their diet but they will also catch a variety of flying insects like Swallows do. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #natureontario #ontarionaturelover #blacktern #blackternsofinstagram #chlidoniasniger #chlidonias #terns #ternsofinstagram #seabirdsaturday #birdshot #wetlandbirding #longpointontario #longpoint #longpointbirds #spottedinlongpoint #blognorfolk #norfolkwild (at Long Point, Lake Erie) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPdZSuvAD2i/?utm_medium=tumblr

I miss time at sea with these big beauties...although Buller’s albatross are one of the smallest species of albatross! They’re no less gorgeous for it though...⠀ ⠀ Buller’s albatross/mollymawk | off Dunedin, 2017⠀ ⠀ #birdventurenz #raw_birds #your_best_birds #albatross @monarchwildlife #explorenz #eye_spy_birds #nuts_about_birds #nikonnz #discovernz #birdstagram #birdsadored #birds_brilliance #bird_lovers_daily #birdventure #capturethewild #seabird #seabirdsaturday #ocean https://www.instagram.com/p/B2IJFk7JtO_/?igshid=1fy6gapynlkyf

Friends don't let friends get cold in Antarctica! Emperor penguin chicks can often be found huddling together for warmth

#bookmail from @booksofpage for #seabirdsaturday, complete with real seabird (that white smudge on the side is a seagull, I swear)! So happy to finally own one of these albies. Thanks again Nicholas. Has anyone read anything by Bromfield? I'm curious... . . . . . #bookstagram #bookworm #igreads #bibliophile #amoleggere #bookish #vintagebooks #met_createchange #booksandbeans #thealbatross #themanwhohadeverything #louisbromfield https://www.instagram.com/p/BtGdTBvnDtX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t3drv3zbth7a

#SeabirdSaturday…Additional local winter visitors…Grey-headed Gulls, a handful of which frequent the local lagoons in the colder months. As we only really see Kelp Gull this side of the Cape, great to see other species & to hear their cute little whiney screams! #gulls #seabirds #TeamGull @avibase #nevernotbirding #birding #birdtherapy #chroicocephalus #laridae #charadriiformes #birdwatching #birds #birdsofsouthafrica #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #naturephotography (at Plett Goose Valley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO5chnGg8bY/?igshid=it3t4bcwzixk

@SaveSeabirds: Northern Gannets fly thousands of miles from Europe to West Africa but many end up as victims of #bycatch, caught in EU fishing boats off West African coasts. We need better monitoring & controls over the EU external fleet now! #CFPreality #OceanAlert #WMBD2018 #SeabirdSaturday https://t.co/qDyAIgvu0M
