Hezu , I appreciate the correction! I ran the photo through the Merlin bird identifier app and it agreed with you while also suggesting the bird on the left might be a black-browed albatross (!). I’ll correct the record …

Howard, although northern fulmar (Fulmarus glacialis) looks similar to many gulls, they are not gulls. And based on the beak, I would say these are fulmars.
No obligatory bird picture this time despite that I have plenty of bird shot I haven't posted here yet since I aboard a train just now and the WiFi is bit on the slow side... |

Indeed nice woodpeckers and the goose is a very special and unflattering pose. They sometimes do that when I get too close on my bicycle and I ususally just move away, never thinking to take a photo of this defense posture.
Here's a pigeon, judging by the rings on both legs probably a homing pigeon taking a small rest before moving on. ![]() A7ii + Tamron FE 150-500 Di III VC VXD |

Brian, Fred and all. The Pileated Woodpeckers were photographed at Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee NWR which is where Larry spotted his Pileated Woodpecker with bird author Richard Crossley and a small group including me. I sure wish he could have seen this family of birds. BTW, the images were taken on Sunday and I learned today that the youngsters fledged on Monday.
