Favorite Bird: hmmm probably pigeons/doves but really any bird, I live in Canada so lots of geese^^
More About Me: I have interned the past 2 years at a wildlife rescue and rehab where most the intakes are birds so I have gotten to care for and even preform field rescues for many local bird^^. Ive also worked at a zoo where I got to teach people about birds and conservation and hopefully this summer I'll be doing some field work involving birds. So I guess you can say im a big bird fan however i've never trully gotten into birding properly but really want to, Im just very bad at taking pictures lol



as you can see my pictures skills are lacking, but heres a pick of a not so happy American kestrel I took (it was rehabed and released)


Do you guys have any recommendations on how to get into birding?

Bump + had an exciting birding trip last weekend!
Went up to the mountains where I saw a bald eagle. When we were heading back home we stopped by another nature reserve where we saw a nesting pair of great horned owls.
