White Ibises gather in groups in shallow wetlands and estuaries in the southeastern United States, on march 02, 2007. At each step, their bright red legs move through the water, and their curved red bill probes the muddy surface below. As adults, these wading birds are all white except for their black wingtips, but young birds are brown above and white below. White Ibises nest in colonies in trees and shrubs along the water's edge, changing locations nearly every year.

A group of Brown Godwits (Limosa haemastica) walks along the Tejo river bank, near the Vasco da Gama bridge in Lisbon, Portugal, on September 12, 2024. The banks of the Tejo River in Lisbon serve as a refuge for a rich diversity of birds, both resident and migratory. This aquatic ecosystem is home to species such as flamingos, herons, and ducks, as well as kingfishers and cormorants that forage in its waters. During migration, the river becomes a crucial stopover for rare and colorful birds, while the riparian vegetation provides shelter and nesting sites. The environment is vital for birdlife and offers a unique experience for birdwatchers amidst vibrant urban life.

Lagerstroemia indica, commonly known as crepe myrtle, queen of flowers, crepe myrtle, or crepeflower, is a wide-spreading shrub or small tree in the genus Lagerstroemia within the family Lythraceae. The plant is native to temperate and tropical Asia, specifically the Indian subcontinent. It has been widely cultivated as an ornamental plant and has become naturalized in Europe, America, China, Korea, Japan, and the Caribbean. The genus name honors Swedish botanist Magnus von Lagerstroemia. The specific epithet means ''of the Indies'' in reference to its native territory. In the United Kingdom, Lagerstroemia indica has received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Red crepe myrtles produce a beautiful, true red bloom from the beginning of May through September. The appeal of this plant lies in its ability to bloom when most trees are not. If the plant is healthy, it will be covered with blooms that last for months during the hottest part of the summer. As the flowers fade, they are replaced with a brown, capsule-like fruit. This fruit attracts birds and usually remains throughout the winter. Crepe myrtle is also traditionally used to address digestive problems such as constipation and diarrhea, as well as urinary conditions. The plant's compounds can help prevent premature aging, lower blood cholesterol levels, and aid in maintaining a healthy heart. This photo was taken in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on 09/06/2024.
