An Orange-crowned Warbler figuring out how to drink out of a hummingbirds' feeder. Now I have to make sure there's always a bit of sugar water on that flower... #birds #backyard #birdwatching #BirdsSeenIn2026 #Warblers

Today is a bright day and, as this Blue Jay shows, sunglasses are required. Hers are built-in. Good for her! #BlueSkyMonday #birds #photography

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #RuffledFeathers. Here's a Yellow-rumped Warbler, a Snowy egret, and a Tricolored heron all ruffled up. Now, who's your favorite? 🙂 #birds #wildlife #photography #EastCoastKin

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #BirdsInTheirElement. Here's a Pied-billed Grebe I was watching recently, and loved that I could see the feet moving under the surface as the bird swam around. #birds #birding #EastCoastKin

A couple of BB Whistling Ducks sitting on the fence yesterday for the #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #Two. #wildlife #photography #ColorADay #GreenSat

I had a good number of Chipping Sparrows over the winter. They moved on. I guess this one is charged with bringing up the rear. #birdwatching #bird #wildlife #photography #SmallBirdSaturday

A House finch pair this morning. #birdwatching #birds #wildlife #photography #FlyDay

A flock of Cedar Waxwings made a stop by my house today before sundown. I heard them, so I went outside to see them and enjoy this beautiful treat. #birds #birdwatching #Texas #BirdsSeenIn2026 #wildlife

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BranchBirds. This is a young Vermilion Flycatcher I saw a couple of weeks ago. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Good morning! For today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme, #PeacefulSolitude, a Green-winged Teal enjoying a swim. #birds #wildlife #photography #EastCoastKin

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #CollectingFood. Here's a Red-bellied Woodpecker collecting acorns and seeds at the park a few days ago. #birds #EastCoastKin

Loved the look of the exposed rock here. #TidesOutTuesday #ColorADay #BlueTue #RockinTuesday #nature #EastCoastKin

The #BirdOfTheDay theme for today is #WinterSurvivors. This is a Little Blue Heron, one windy winter day. #birds #herons #wildlife #photography #EastCoastKin

Like me choosing among the last chocolates in a Valentine's Day box, settling for what's left the next day. #birds #photography #ValentinesDay #Stunday

A Pine Warbler, making do in a (bare) Pear tree. #Stunday #birds #photography #trees #wildlife #Sunday

Pops of green and yellow among the fallen leaves as seasons change once again. #ColorADay #GreenSat #nature #bloomscrolling #flowers

An Orange-crowned Warbler appears to be trying to hide behind a leaf. Too cute! #SmallBirdSaturday #birds #wildlife #photography

A couple of pelicans I saw earlier this week. I loved watching them while they were #DivingForFood not too far away. #BirdOfTheDay #birding #EastCoastKin

A Pine Warbler perched on what's left of one of my shrubs after the freeze. He doesn't seem to notice, lucky him! #birds #photography #YellowThu #photography #wildlife

Black-headed Grosbeaks are rare visitors to my area, as it's not part of their normal range. This week, after seeing a post about a sighting roughly an hour away, I went searching. It took a few hours, but I was so excited when I saw her! Beautiful little bird! #birding #birds #BirdsSeenIn2026

Good morning! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Birds&Bugs. Here's an Eastern Bluebird I saw a few days ago. It had just picked a tiny bug off a tree branch. #birds #birding #EastCoastKin #photography

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WaterBirds, and I love it because I finally saw a loon for the first time on Monday. This Common Loon appears to be a juvenile. It was quite far, so the shots are cropped and not that sharp, but there it is, a lifer. #BirdOfTheDay #birds #EastCoastKin

A sunny day at the water's edge. So many gulls! #ColorADay #BlueTue #photography #birds

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OddCouples. This Limpkin and Gallinule duo look calm. But usually, the Limpkins are annoyed when they're cracking open an Apple snail and the gallinules hang around hoping to grab themselves a quick bite. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #wildlife

Good morning! Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StareDown, birds looking right at you, like this Tricolored Heron. I don't think he liked having the camera pointed at him. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #wildlife #birding

For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme, here's a Cooper's Hawk on the fence. It was hoping to catch one of the birds in the backyard, but they all flew away. Better luck next time! #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #Stunday #wildlife

Another grey day in the UK, but there's the promise of sunshine coming soon... Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #posted - a bird on a post. And what brighter ray of sunshine could there be than a Rose-coloured Starling basking on a Shetland fencepost? #birds #EastCoastKin #Stunday #photography

An Orange-crowned Warbler catches me trying to take its photo next to a blooming Purple Heart. #stunday #FlowersOnSunday #photography #bloomscrolling #birds #FlowerReport

A gorgeous Altamira Oriole stops briefly in a bush on its way to the waterhole. #OrangeSun #birding #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin

Not so easy to catch a Wilson's Warbler sitting still in the open, but worth the effort to get a good look at this beautiful little bird. #SmallBirdSaturday #Birds #Photography #Nature #Wildlife

An American Goldfinch singing in a tree this morning for #SmallBirdSaturday. #Birds #Photography #Nature #Wildlife

Enjoying the beautiful morning. #birds #birding #wildlifephotography #nature

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Serenity. Here's a Muscovy duck with five ducklings enjoying a quiet swim. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Avian dinosaur alert! The Tricolored Heron is one of my favorite herons. This one was one of two at the lake a couple of days ago. A stunning bird. #birds #birding #wildlifephotography #nature

Sunshine on my shoulders... 🎵 This Eastern Bluebird was taking advantage of the warm, sunny weather today. #birds #wildlife #photography #birding

A Snowy Egret likely wondering how the Tricolored Heron's feathers are staying in place, while their own are tossed about in the wind. #birds #herons #wildlife #photography

The theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #birds&berries. The Myrtle Warbler's digestive system is uniquely adapted to handle the waxy, hard berries of Wax Myrtle shrubs. With little competition from other birds, the plant becomes safe food and shelter for the winter. I provide water :) #birds #EastCoastKin

Couldn't have asked for a lovelier perch to take a picture of this Orange-crowned Warbler at the park. #birding #wildlifephotography #nature #photography

New post with correction for the name. This duck is a daily visitor to my yard. It's a Black-bellied Whistling Duck -Dendrocygna, from the Greek, "tree swan," and autumnalis, Latin for "of autumn," sort of like the picture ;) Thanks @bearbait2.bsky.social for pointing it out! #birds #EastCoastKin

Wonderful picture of a beautiful bird!

Sharing this — it’s been a while since I managed to get a clean, nice shot of a Brown-eared Bulbul 😊 Feels like a good match for today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme, #BackyardBirds. 🪶 #ヒヨドリ（の顔が好きな）友の会 の活動です！ #nature #photography #animals #wildlife #Brown-earedBulbul #ヒヨドリ #birds #野鳥

Orange-crowned Warbler #birds #wildlife #photography #winter #ThePhotoHour

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #BackyardBirds. Chipping Sparrows pretty much move in to the backyard for the winter, and they're very welcome! Usually the first I hear in the morning and last to settle down at the end of the day. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

These two warblers used to chase each other away from the tray. Now, they have a brief exchange of some sort, then one of them leaves. Almost always the Pine Warbler gets to stay and eat, while the Orange-crowned waits around in a tree. #birds #birdwatching #wildlife #photography #backyard

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Reflections. Two Snowy Egrets and their reflections as they fish in the lake. #bird #birding #EastCoastKin #Twosday

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #GullsInWater. Here's a bit of a mix, with some already in water and some soon to be! #birds #gulls #wildlife #EastCoastKin

I love the theme #SmallBirdSaturday 🪶 Joining in with some beautiful warblers from the past few days. #Birds #LittleBirds #BirdPhotography #Wildlife
