For the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #LongBeaks, the beak of the hummingbird isn't really that long, except in relation to the tiny hummingbird!

Well, the #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BlackAndRed and the Alt theme is #LongBeaks so we have an I'iwi twofer! I still remember the misty light on this day in Hosmer Grove, felt like I was shooting inside a soft box. :) #birds 🦉🌿📷

Listening for Ants

A Pileated Woodpecker fits today’s #Black&Red theme and might earn honorable mention for #LongBeaks.

But ears are his superpower. Imagine being able to hear carpenter ants inside trees!

Pelagic cormorants have #LongBeaks and #BlackAndRed faces! The black and red is hard to see here, but I'm claiming victory on both tags today 😆

Today Alan has chosen #LongBeaks for the #BirdOfTheDay alt theme. The bird with the longest bill, at up to 20 inches is the Australian Pelican, these Peruvian Pelicans with bills up to 16 inches are close. #birds #birding #nature #birdphotography
