I was lucky enough to walk through an exhibit that had one of the largest moth species in the world - the Atlas Moth. The feathery area on its head is its antennae. #naturephotography #moth #moths

Our speed limit officers have arrived! #BirdOfTheDay #StandingOnThings #birds #birdphotography

Posy in a box! #caturday

This is a repost of 1 of my favorite photos. It is not the best, but it makes me smile. This tiny Carolina Chickadee had just fledged and went in the opposite direction of everyone else. It is attempting to #takeoffs to join the rest of the family. #BirdOfTheDay #birds #birdphotography

Ruby Spotted Swallowtail. #butterfly #butterflies #naturephotography

These 2 Northern Mockingbirds had been chasing each other around my yard for a while before it finally came to fisticuffs. I tried explaining there was room for both of them but to no avail. #BirdOfTheDay #Fighting #birds #birdphotography

From Alan @alan678.bsky.social, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #lunchtime. Not quite sure what the Mourning Dove is picking up, maybe a little rock for lunch? #birds #birdphotography

Three years ago today, we lost our Sacha. He passed on his little brother Baxter's birthday. We lost Baxter 14 months ago. I know wherever they are, they are together just like they always were. Forever in our hearts❤️

‪Today's #BirdOfTheDay is all about #CloseUps from Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social‬. From that look, I think I may have been interrupting this American Flamingo's nap. #birds #birdphotography

Silver-Spotted Skipper Butterfly on one of the lasted blooms of the season. #naturephotography #butterfly #butterflies

For #BirdOfTheDay theme from Alan @alan678.bsky.social I am choosing the alternative #longbeak, aka the tiny sword of the Ruby-throated Hummingbird. #birds #naturephotography

A punctuation of wings—worn at the edges yet still asking nature’s quiet questions - the Question Mark Butterfly. #naturephotography #butterfly #butterflies

I snapped this photo many moons ago during a lunch break. They wandered looking for forgotten morsels, while I sat nearby with nothing but a book—not exactly a tempting snack, unless they had a taste for literature. #BirdOfTheDay #Pigeons #birds #birdphotography

I was lucky enough to catch this Gulf Fritillary before it fluttered off. #butterfly #butterflies #naturephotography

BEST DAY EVER!! Thank you Alan @alan678.bsky.social!!! For #BirdOfTheDay I have 4 pictures (I have plenty more for the future) that are the #worst. 1.eaglet 2. Bluebird in a tree 3. Roseate Spoonbill 4.Barred Owl.

For #BirdOfTheDay I have this beautiful lady House #finch. #birdphotography #birds

Max's excitement for Halloween overwhelmed him. #catsofbluesky #blackcat #cats

For the #BirdOfTheDay I have to go with #Halloween and a Back Vulture perched high on its post. #birdphotography #birds

I believe this is an underwater performance of 'Goose Lake'. #OddAngles #BirdOfTheDay #birds #birdphotography

Always look down - you never know what you might see. Eastern Pondhawk. #naturephotography #dragonfly #insects #bugs

Did you hear the one about...? #BirdOfTheDay alternative theme #funny #birds #birdphotography

Praying Matis hidden beneath the leaves. #insects #bugs #naturephotography

On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Two turtle doves.... #BirdOfTheDay #DailyDouble #TwosDay #birds #birdphotography

Eastern Tiger Swallowtail on a Morning Glory. #butterfly #naturephotography #flowers

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today from from @alan678.bsky.social is #Heron with the alternative being #Ducks. This Mallard was kind enough to strike a pose for me before heading back to the water. #bird #birdphotography

Such elegance! The Great Egret. #BirdOfTheDay #Egrets #birds #birdphotography

A Bluejay soaking in the warmth of the morning sun. #BirdOfTheDay #sunlit #bird #birds

The Turkey Vultures make #flying look so effortless. #BirdOfTheDay #Flyday #bird #birds

Cedar Waxwings #thinking where can I land? #BirdofTheDay #bird #birds

With its downy feathers and wide-eyed gaze, this Barred Owl may look huggable, but don’t be fooled, those talons weren’t made for cuddles. #BirdOfTheDay #Raptors #bird #birds

I took this photo of two Bald Eagles many moons ago at a zoo. I have only seen Bald Eagles once in the wild and I'll wait for the theme of the day to be "horrible/terrible photos of birds" to share that one. #BirdOfTheDay in #greenery #bird #birds

This little Carolina Wren was singing its heart out, much like I do alone in the car, but it has much better tone. #BirdOfTheDay #SingingBird #bird #birds

For the #BirdOfTheDay, I have chosen a small drop of sunshine - the American Goldfinch. #colourful #colorful #bird #birds

💙👊💙

Todays #BirdOfTheDay theme is #black and this Black Vulture thinks that is an excellent choice. #bird #birds

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #character. I don't think anyone who has had interactions with Canada Geese can say they lack character!!

This is Terry the territorial Northern Mockingbird. He thinks any land he spots is his, and his alone. #BirdOfTheDay #SkinnyLegs #bird #birds

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #birdinabush from Alan H‬ ‪@alan678.bsky.social‬. I have a bit of a territory feud going on right now with these 2 Mockingbirds. #birds #bird

For the #BirdOfTheDay the graceful Little Blue Heron. #LongNecks

It is hard to believe a little House Sparrow can create so many #droplets of water!!! #BirdoftheDay #bird #birds

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme from @alan678.bsky.social is #wings. While many may not find the Turkey Vulture the most attractive of birds - I think they may be the most graceful in flight. #bird #birds

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is the 'Family Paridae of Birds'. This little Black-Capped Chickadee just took its first flight and landed quite nicely on the fence. It seems to be just taking in the everything around it - life looks a bit different out of the nesting box. #chickadee #bird #birds

This Great Blue Heron's beak wasn't full for very long! #BirdOfTheDay #Beakful #bird #birds

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is themed 'Juveniles/Chicks' as chosen by @robcrank68.bsky.social. Yesterday I posted a juvenile American Robin so it is only fitting I post an American Robin chick today. #bird #birds #chicks

For the #BirdOfTheDay #Spotted I choose this juvenile American Robin sitting in the perfect spot to be camouflaged. #bird #birds

The #BirdOfTheDay alternative theme is #floofball and I have chosen this Red Bellied Woodpecker fluffed to the fullest on a cold snowy morning.

#BirdOfTheDay theme from @robcrank68.bsky.social is #seabird I offer the humble Brown Pelican. #bird #birds

Why did the Western Cattle-Egret cross the road? #BirdOfTheDay #Walks #bird #birds

Ducks!!! #BirdOfTheDay #ducks #duck #bird #birds

White-throated Sparrow trying to stay warm on a snowy day. #BirdOfTheDay #AllWeathers #bird #birds
