Before the smoke rolled in yesterday, we got to see this Bald Eagle get re-released back into the wild. He took off in a hurry so I barely got any shots lol. #birds #birdphotography #photography #nature #wildlife #birding #BirdOfTheDay #TRAHR

Never thought I would be interested in random flooded farm fields before I started birding. But then I realized you can find shorebirds like this Solitary Sandpiper in them lol. #birds #birdphotography #photography #nature #wildlife #birding #BirdOfTheDay #TRAHR

The Mallard is a widespread duck. Not only will you find it in North America, but all over Europe as well. Probably makes it under appreciated. #birds #birdphotography #photography #nature #wildlife #birding #BirdOfTheDay #TRAHR

A fun thing about travelling is that the birds that are super common at your destination, like this Glaucous-winged Gull, are brand new to you! #birds #birdphotography #photography #nature #wildlife #birding #BirdOfTheDay #TRAHR

Took a ride up a gondola to see this grey-crowned rosy-finch in its habitat. Well worth the trip lol. #birds #birdphotography #photography #nature #wildlife #birding #BirdOfTheDay #TRAHR
