#Connect2Nature #Birds #BirdoftheDay #WildMotion July 4th is a special day for my friends to the south. The Bald Eagle is their national bird (although the one in the photo is Canadian) It is most interesting times, so I wish you keep the conviction of your founding fathers when they founded the USA

"I am Greta, Queen of the Grebes, Ruler of the Rhone, Conqueror of Seven Continents, known to the Romans as Podiceps Cristatus, to the Maori as Pūteketeke. It's a lot to think about, you know. Anyone seen any fish?" For the #QuietReflection theme of today's #BirdoftheDay by @alan678.bsky.social

Street photography often lives in small everyday moments. A café window, someone pausing inside, and a quiet scene unfolding between reflections and reality. ☕📷

Today's #BirdOfTheDay from Alan is #QuietReflection, any bird paused in thought. To me, this cardinal seems to be pondering some past grievance against it 😠 #Photography #Birds #Cardinals

These two flamingos were flirting. Flamingos shake their heads at each other in a synchronized courtship ritual known as "head flagging". 💘 #naturephotography #nature #wildlifephotography #wildlife #birdphotography #birds #flamingos #eastcoastkin #photography
