Evening eagle. A little project I've been working on. This map takes all sightings reported to the bird banding lab of the banded birds I've observed and puts them all on a map to see where they've been. Click the link to check it out. bit.ly/4yqe2yd #birds #ctnaturefans #photography

Portland Reservoir looking good. #photography #ctnaturefans #landscape

Working in Meriden today, I saw the color popping by Castle Craig. Headed back after work to get some shots. Pretty close to peak I'd say. Especially considering the wind and rain coming this weekend. #photography #ctnaturefans #landscape

Evening eagle. A rare picture repost. Combing through banding data today, I learned that WC6 (the bird on the right) had been reported deceased as of Feb. 2025. Her mate had passed the year before. She was 2nd oldest banded bird in CT according to the data I have #birds #ctnaturefans #photography

Evening eagle. Introducing 21C. My 15th banded bird and first time I've seen such a young (likely this year's hatch) bird banded. Hanging out near one of the osprey nests in Essex. #birds #ctnaturefans #photography

Accidental. Walking back to my car, tripod and camera over my shoulder, I must have somehow hit the shutter button a few times. I think theyre kind of cool. #photography
