Dive into the long weekend with our #BeltedKingfishers! While these gorgeous young birds were learning how to dive for fish, we used shallower pools as they gained confidence in their abilities. Check back tomorrow for an update on these daring divers!

Chris Neri started banding owls at WPBO in the spring of 1999 and has dedicated much of his life to working at this unique migration site. Here he is, banding his 10,000th WPBO owl (a long-eared). This is such a significant accomplishment for any bander! 📸 Nova Mackentley
