Vixen at sunset for #FoxyFriday. 🦊 Last week, I went with my colleagues at @BirdsConnectSEA (formerly @SeattleAudubon) on a big day. I was able to count 60 different bird species, including those pictured. Today (#WildlifeWednesday, May 31) is the last day of our Birdathon fundraising. If you can support our mission of antiracism and bird conservation, please see the link in my bio. My glorious Sunday: Crowd favorite Cinnamon doing a fox trot for #FoxyFriday. 🦊 On Thursday, May 25, my colleagues at @SeattleAudubon and I will embark on a Big Day, counting birds to raise funds for our mission of antiracism and protecting birds and the habitat they share with humans. The fundraiser is called Birdathon. Will you consider supporting us? See link in my profile; it'll be valid for days afterward. Enjoy the view on #HumpDay, aka, #WildlifeWednesday. Hunting for warmth and inspiration -- and maybe a few other things -- this #FoxyFriday. 🦊 Bow down to the bunny on #WildlifeWednesday! Shaking it off on #WildlifeWednesday.
