Black skimmer 🪶 📷 Hayward Regional My fav pic of the year so far. Skimmers have a big underbite, and drag the lower mandible through the water as they fly. If it hits something, the beak snaps shut. Amazing birds, and I was ecstatic when this one skimmed straight at us. This photo is uncropped.

My book club is reading your book, "An Immense World" and yowsa it is wonderful. I swear my brain is buzzing after reading the first chapter. A bit like when I took up piano in my 40's. My brain felt fully exercised and rejuvenated after practice sessions. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

it's incredible how narrow their beaks are - most photos don't show that!

”Fav pic of the year” hardly does it justice. That’s one of the prettiest bird photos I’ve seen, period. Well done!
