🦆 #RuddyDucks are back in BC this spring! Males sport striking sky-blue bills and chestnut bodies during breeding season, performing bubbly courtship displays to attract mates. In BC, they're most often seen along the Columbia Valley Bird Trail. #BCBirdTrail #LookUpStayGrounded

Ospreys are excellent fishers, partly thanks to an unusual adaptation among #hawks. A reversible outer toe gives them a vicelike grip on their prey, with two toes in front and two behind. Just look at those massive talons! #BCBirdTrail 📷 Mathew Schwartz, Unsplash
