Here's another two-fer, male and female American Redstarts. Fall migration is just getting underway here in the Chicago area, and American Redstart is one of our most common migrant warblers. I will be leading many field trips this fall locally in the Chicago area--we should see redstart on many of them--so check out the schedule at the link and please join me if you can! 📸: Josh Engel https://bit.ly/30qmLBq #migration #birdmigration #redstart #chicago #birdsofchicago #birding #birdwatching #fallmigration #warbler #lincoln park #illinois #wildlifephotography

Rapidly declining populations have led Maccoa Duck to be listed as Vulnerable by @birdlife_insta, just one step before being listed as Endangered. Fortunately the species still fairly numerous in South Africa. It’s a member of the genus Oxyura, which are referred to as stiff-tailed ducks. Each continent has one native species in the genus (except South America, which has two). 📸: Josh Engel #ruddyduck #maccoaduck #duck #birdsofsouthafrica #birdsofafrica #stifftail #wildlifephotography #birdphotography #birds #ebird #birding #birdwatching #redhillbirding #birdingtours #birdsofinstagram #birdsofig #best_birds_of_instagram
We took three boat trips for birding and photography on my recent Namibia & Botswana trip--two on the Okavango River and one on the Chobe River. They are a great way to get close to birds, both for photos and for close studies of plumage and behavior. We had an incredible experience watching this Malachite Kingfisher fishing in the backwaters of the Chobe River practically at arm's length. 📸: Josh Engel #kingfisher #malachite #birdsofafrica #birdsofbotswana #chobe #choberiver #wildlifephotography #birdphotography #best_birds_of_ig #birdsofinstagram #ebird #redhillbirding #birds #birdingtours #botswana #namibia
