Henslow`s Sparrow, a grassland species named for a close friend of Charles Darwin, is in decline across its range. However, Chicago area populations are actually increasing due to the amount of restored grasslands available to them locally. We saw and heard 19 of them on today`s bird walk. #henslowssparrow #sparrow #birding #birdingphotography #birdphotography #favoritebird #beautifulbirds #nikonbirds #bestbirdshots #bestbirds #citizensforconservation #365barrington #prairierestoration #prairie

A surprise during my pollinator survey this morning. I was trying to get a photo of a busy Mining Bee visiting flowers, when it stared struggling and seemed stuck in something. I took a few more photos and then it dropped off of the flower but remained suspended. Only then did I notice that a camouflaged White-banded Crab Spider hiding on the flower had caught it and they were now swinging from the spider`s thread.
These things were tiny.
I told a botanist on the site what I had seen and she asked if I intervened. Too late, the bee was already envenomated, not that I would interfere with nature doing its thing. Spiders have to eat too. #bee #spider #miningbee #crabspider #whitebandedcrabspider #beeprey #spiderpredation #spidereatsbee #predation #pollinatorsurvey #beesurvey #prairierestoration #citizensforconservation #365barrington #closeupphotography #macro #insectphotography #spiderphotography

With a stylish new look, this little one is ready to take on all the fun and adventures that summer has to offer. From pool parties to family vacations, this kid is sure to turn heads with their cool and confident style.
Here`s to a summer full of memories and great hair days! 💇♂️ ☀️😎
Wood Duck Update.
There are now two families of Wood Ducks on Long Slough (a.k.a. Vander Pool) at Flint Creek Savanna. One family has 8 ducklings and one has 16.
Clutch size averages 6-16, so 16 may be a normal clutch, but Wood Ducks also practice "egg dumping." Some females - often first-year breeders - follow another Wood Duck back to her nest box and deposit one egg a day while the original female is out foraging. This results in overly large clutches and decreases hatching success.
I once saw a pair of Wood Ducks sitting on top of the nest box I monitored and watched them fly away. I assumed the box was now empty, stuck my phone in the hole, and took a picture. There was a female on the nest, which makes me think the pair on top was egg dumping. Also, after the ducklings left the nest, there were 3 or 4 unhatched eggs remaining inside which suggests there were too many eggs, some of which failed to hatch. #woodduck #woodducks #woodduckducklings #ducklings #birding #citizensforconservation #365barrington #birdphotography #birdingphotography #nikonbirds
Some coverboards are just better than others.
