Dominican Republic Woodpecker?

The beach near my hotel has a bunch of these birds nesting in what I think are coconut trees. They're super active at dusk and dawn, and they burrow into holes in the trunks near the top.

Camouflage, communication, or just curiosity—this wild dog wears its muddy, dung-streaked coat like a badge of survival. Whether masking its scent, bonding with the pack, or outsmarting nature, it’s a master of adaptation in the wild. 🤠🇿🇦

Saw this while I was stuck in a driveway. I think it was laughing at me.

I need some advice choosing my next camera

Hello, Im a 14 year old photographer who loves wildlife photography. I dont have a lot of money to spend on camera gear. I have my parents old Nikon D3300 camera with a 18-55, 55-200 and a cheap 400-800 from amazon for $100. I am thinking about buying a new camera. My budget is $1000 and i dont mind buying a second hand camera. I was looking at the Sony Alpha 6600 but i dont know if should switch to another brand/mount (i use F-Mount now). Are there any camera's yall recommend in my budget range or should i save up to buy the Sony Alpha 6600 and a mount switch thing (forgot the name). I would hope to get some advice in this subreddit and hope to get a new camera to take better photo's of different animals.

Already thanks. (I can also share some work of me if one of u wants to)
