Roseate Spoonbill #shorts



Roseate Spoonbill using its long spoon-like bill to find and eat tiny shrimp. That constant diet of shrimp is thought to be why they are pink. One of the most unusual birds in the US it is making a comeback in recent years. Trying out the new YouTube #shorts feature - let me know in the comments if you like this kind of short vertical content meant mostly for smartphones - they are a new way to share short Nature clips in between longer traditional horizontal videos.

Young Northern Cardinal


This plucky young female Northern Cardinal is out and about on her own and making a pretty good account of herself at the plank feeder.

Northern Flicker Woodpecker Mini-Documentary


Yellow Shafted Northern Flickers are woodpeckers that are not too keen on pecking wood - they spend most of their time pecking the earth! They prefer to dig for ants with their unique curved beak and sticky tongue so they are more commonly spotted pecking on the ground. Like all woodpeckers, Flickers nest in cavities in trees and are also some of the loudest "peckers" in the woodpecker family see these videos for example: https://youtu.be/GrEbH3MwHSA https://youtu.be/W8H03gd9Zd8 Filmed with Canon SX70HS on Amazon at: https://amzn.to/2QftDPd Commision Earned 🔴 New HD videos uploaded weekly.
