I had to repost this for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #PowerPose. #birds #smallbutmighty

Lifer alert - saw a pair of Barrow's Goldeneye ducks yesterday. Very cute & made it worth going out in the rain. #MallardMonday #birds #birdinglife

"The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind." #birds #raptors Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RuffledFeathers, birds with feathers out of place, the Alt theme is #Brown, birds who have brown feathers.

Have a few more #WaterDroplets #BirdOfTheDay shots of a Bewick's wren with some raindrops on it and falling around it this afternoon #birds #photography 🪶

Cute as a button Dark-eyed Junco perched on a curved, bare branch of a Daphne shrub. #birds #SparrowSunday

An elusive Virgina Rail partially hidden in the twigs and grasses. Try as I might, I can't get a fully clear photo of one. #birds #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #BirdsInTheirElement , birds in their natural environment, the alt is #Seabirds

Reposting for #BlueSkyArtShow #Two

Male Anna's Hummingbird letting y'all know it's #SmallBirdSaturday and he's here for it. 😄 #birds #hummingbirds

Rob's challenge for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WaterDroplets, birds with water droplets on them, the Alt theme is #OneLeg, any bird on one leg. A Red-winged Blackbird perched on a cattail head in a light rain. He is adorned with fine rain droplets. #birds

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WingsOverWater any bird flying over water and the alt theme is #cute birds you find cute, even if others don’t. A Glaucous-winged Gull flying low over its reflection. #birds

An American Crow catching a few beams of sunlight. #birds #ThursJay #corvids #BirdOfTheDay #BranchBirds

@robcrank68.bsky.social hat für den heutigen #BirdOfTheDay das Thema #BranchBirds, Vögel auf Ästen.

Today Rob has chosen #BranchBirds for #BirdOfTheDay theme: any bird on a branch, the Alt theme is #Robins. Full borb mode ✔️ #birds #borbs

I was trying to photograph this Pileated Woodpecker on the tree, but he had other plans. I like how he looks like an arrow. #birds #WoodpeckerWednesday

Alan is going for some vibes with today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PeacefulSolitide a singular bird, in a peaceful setting. The alt is #DramaQueens upset or angry birds. I'm on the side of peace right now. Who knows what the day will bring and how I'll feel later. #birds

On a recent sunny day this fellow briefly perched near a walking path and kindly allowed me to take a few photos before he flew off. #TalonTuesday #raptors #birds

Rob's choice for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #CollectingFood, birds with food in their beaks, the Alt theme is #Grey. A Dark-eyed Junco perched in a rose bush enjoying a sunflower seed. #birds

A solo Cinnamon Teal has been staying at the little local wetlands area, and it's done some molting. First photo from Oct 2025, second from Feb 2026 (with a female Northern Shoveler). It seems to mostly hang around the Northern Shovelers. #Ducks #Birds #MallardMonday

This bedraggled Black-tailed Bumblebee hitched a ride inside on my dog on a recent rainy day. I took it back outside & provided it with a sheltered spot and a dab of honey. #MacroMonday #bees #invertebrates

I imagine this category will generate a lot of Chickadee photos. Did you know that even though their daytime body temperature is about 105° F (40.5° C), their legs can be just below freezing? It's one of several adaptations they have to survive frigid winters. #BirdOfTheDay #WinterSurvivors #birds

@robcrank68.bsky.social hat zum heutigen #BirdOfTheDay das Thema #BirdButts. Hier ein Buntspecht Popo.

Going for the #Green. The alt theme for today's #BirdOfTheDay. Mainly because I love this photo of an immature Anna's Hummingbird sipping from a feeder. Also I'm short on photos of #BirdButts 😏! #birds

For #SmallBirdSaturday, a Black-capped Chickadee on a branch. #LittleBirds #birds #photography #PhotographersUnited #EastCoastKin

@alan678.bsky.social hat heute für den #BirdOfTheDay das Thema #Portrait gewählt.

Happy #SmallBirdSaturday to all who celebrate. White-breasted Nuthatch - a small bird with big energy. This fellow is half of a pair that nested in my yard last year, and may nest in the same box this year. 🤞🏼 #birds

Baby's growing up - this immature male Anna's Hummingbird is molting into his full glory. #birds #hummingbirds

A Double-crested Cormorant for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme: #DivingForFood, birds that dive under water for food. This gorgeous creature was sunning itself at a local park. Look at that eye! 💚🩵 #birds

Vagrant Summer Tanager with a mealworm in its beak. #birds #BirdOfTheDay #Birds&Bugs

Per Rob: Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WaterBirds, any bird that lives in or get's it food from water, the Alt theme is #Blue, any bird with Blue on it. This photo is a twofer. 😉 #birds #herons

A Chestnut-backed Chickadee sharing suet with a "gigantic" friend - a Downy Woodpecker. #BirdOfTheDay #OddCouples #birds

Song Sparrow #StareDown. I blinked first. #BirdOfTheDay #birds

Bushtit brigade! These little sweetie birds are the reason I got a suet feeder in the first place. #birds #Stunday

Gaze upon this rainy day American Crow perched on a wet cyclone fence showing off its subtle iridescent sheen, and be mesmerized. #BirdOfTheDay #posted #birds #corvids

Alan says today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Serenity - serene bird captures. A hybrid Gadwall x Mallard drake peering down towards the water with a Gadwall drake swimming behind him. His seemingly reflective pose & the overall muted blue and brown coloration of the photo feel peaceful. #birds #ducks

This squirrel seemed to be posing so perfectly I had to capture it. #SquirrelSaturday #BlueskyArtShow #Sunlight #UrbanWildlife

A Lesser Goldfinch for #SmallBirdSaturday showing off his sunny yellow belly. #birds

Happy it is #Flyday. Hard to not be #backlit when flying overhead. #BirdOfTheDay #birds #raptors

A male red shafted Northern Flicker perched on a very small Hawthorne branch fits Alan's choice for BOTD & #FlickerFriday The themes for #BirdOfTheDay are #birds&berries any capture that includes both. The alt is #backlitbeauty any bird capture with the sun light behind the bird. #birds

Check out the pin feathers on the face of this Anna's Hummingbird. #birds #hummingbirds #molting

One of these ducks is not like the others. #birds #BirdOfTheDay #Black&White #WeirdDucks

The "butter butt" is the only warbler I see regularly in my yard. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #BackyardBirds , birds you see close to home. The alt is #longnecks , birds with long necks. good luck. #birds

Rob has chosen for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme: #Reflections, any bird reflection, the Alt theme is #Paridae any of the Paridae Species (Tits/Chickadees) Canada Goose and its reflection. They are very common, but also very lovely. #birds

It's #WorldWetlandsDay! The city has been working on wetlands restoration. A nearby site was opened in 2025 giving public access. I've been a frequent visitor and have really enjoyed seeing a variety of birds over the changing seasons. Evening landscape from a few weeks back.

Even #WeirdDucks know it's #MallardMonday. #birds

Alan is on the mend and has chosen a fun one for today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme: #openbeak birds with beak open. The alt is #openwings: birds with wings out. My offering is a Green Heron still seeming pretty outraged after having words with a Mallard. #birds #herons

A juvenile gull looking a bit disheveled is swimming on the Columbia River. #birds #BirdOfTheDay #gulls

A flock of geese flying in front of gauzy, wintry evening clouds. #BlueSkyArtShow #Clouds

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is #Ducks for the theme, and the Alt theme is #Pigeons. A Barrow's Goldeneye couple that showed up unexpectedly in our park across the street in Nov./2023. Magical one-time-only! #birds #photography #PhotographersUnited #EastCoastKin

A Northern Shoveler drake looking quite proud in his glorious breeding plumage as he swims through the grass and reeds. #BirdOfTheDay #Ducks #birds

Peek-a-boo #birds #FlickerFriday
