While myself and many other bird watchers from around New York State have been enjoying the visiting Swallow tailed kite. Not everyone has been enthused by its appearance, this harassing accipter (either coopers or sharp shinned hawk but I’m leaning towards coopers) is attempting to let the kite know it isn’t welcome in its territory. Taken 9/6/21.
Got to see my first ever swallow tailed kite a couple days ago! The best part? It was only an hour drive away here in upstate New York! I’m hoping to visit it again today, if it is still in the area this would be the 20th day sighted. Taken 8/31/21.

See those tiny feathers around this Milky Eagle Owl’s beak? Called “bristles” (even though they’re feathers, not hair), they help her identify things. Owls have great distance vision but not a lot of ability to focus on things close to their faces, so these feathers help them find objects at close range. They’re kind of like cat whiskers for birds! This ambassador #owl at the @oregonzoo has a very luxurious and noticeable set of bristles, but look close and you’ll see lots of birds, like ravens, also have them! #birdsofprey #milkyeagleowl #whiskersonfleek #owls #ambassadoranimal #zoo #abma2019 #abmaconference (at Oregon Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv-iPUjh1Pk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=36dvrjcl4ude
