A Big Splash
I practiced a little social distancing this past Sunday when I drove to Barnegat Light State Park and walked out along the beach and the rock jetty. A merganser drake came in for a landing and made quite a splash with his debut. Sometimes the action is better than the animal itself. A northeast wind kept migrating northern gannets drifting closer to the shoreline and into view from the jetty. It was great to get a last look at some of the wintering birds before they complete the last leg of their northern journey to breed for the season. #Merganser

March 17, 2020 - Rufous Fantail (Rhipidura rufifrons)
The fifteen recognized subspecies of these fantails are found in eastern Australia and parts of Indonesia, Micronesia, the Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Timor-Leste. Often foraging in mixed-species flocks, they eat a variety of insects and spiders, capturing them in short flights or picking them from plants. Pairs build compact cup-shaped nests from grass and fine plant fibers held together with spiderwebs, usually in forked branches. Both parents incubate the eggs and feed the chicks.

Sequins.
Another view of a broad-billed hummingbird (Cynanthus latirostris), at the Paton Center for Hummingbirds, Patagonia, Arizona. Hummers often adopt that erect posture—especially at feeders—to keep an eye on possible competitors for their preferred food sources.
