Happy New Year's Eve, everyone. Which resolution will be the most difficult for you in 2025? For us it will be resisting the urge to plan a(nother) family trip around a birding hotspot. Sorry family, we're going birding (again)!!

We hope your Christmas Eve is made better by watching the comedic fishing style of a Reddish Egret. As ridiculous as it looks, it's quite successful. It confuses the fish, and they swim right into their path.
