For the #BlueSkyArtShow today, a photo from one of my runs in the last year. I'm resolving to take many more of them in the #NewYear 🌞 #photography #running #sunrise

Today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #NewYear. A new year dawns like a new day. Differently. Each offering new hope and a chance to be alive. A chance to escape monotony if we wish. If we are able. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #clouds #sunrise

Good morning! Alan has chosen #CaughtInMotion for the #BirdOfTheDay today, so here's a ruby-throated hummingbird I captured in flight back in early November. Gonna use this opportunity to jump into #SmallBirdSaturday for the first time as well 😁 #photography #birds #hummingbirds

Good morning the #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #caughtinmotion birds captured in movement and the alternative is #BirdsofPrey which speaks for itself. Good luck. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

This year you took the #BlueSkyArtShow from an idea to an institution. Thank you so much to everyone who participates every week. There's more info in the comments. Most heart warming to me is how many people don't just post and run but stay and like others' work. 💙

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is #GoodLight, set by Rob and it is also #scape day from #EastCoastKin So here's a crossover scape from out at the Orlando Wetlands with some birds with what I think is pretty good light 😁 #photography #birds #landscapes #wetlands

TFW you wake up and realize it’s already 2026. #birds #nature #wildlife #Nikon #PhotographersUnited

Captured this during a turkey trot 5K we ran in Richmond on Thanksgiving day 🏃‍♂️ One of my 2025 goals was to get running consistently again and I've accomplished that. In 2026 my goal is to complete a full marathon, so a lot of work to do! #photography #HumansOfBluesky #classicmono #running #goals

Happy new year everyone 💛! Sending hugs & positive vibes to all of you. 2025 been really wild here, in all possible meanings. Lots of amazing adventures, peoples, emotions, and losses to… Rn I’m rush-packing for Antarctica. Wasn’t planned but it’s happening. Last minute kind of situation. Excited

The old me on the left and the new me on the right. 2025 was a huge year of positive change for me, and I see no reason to slow that down. Going to try and keep jumping into new things in 2026! 😁 Happy New Years everyone! #BirdOfTheDay #b&w #photography #birds #classicmono

Oh dear dear me 🥴🍻. Good morning 2026, the #BirdOfTheDay theme is #b&w , bird captures in mono, it proved popular last time and the alt theme is #sparrows any sparrow. Good luck folks. Here’s a ballet dancing Egret. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Just one look And 2026 is off and running youtu.be/IsEwBzfdMnk?...

A beautiful rose I saw yesterday in the gardens 🌹 #RoseWednesday #ColorADay #RedWed #photography #flowers #bloomscrolling #roses

Rob has set today's #BirdOfTheDay theme as #Reflections, so here's an anhinga reluctantly sharing a log with a couple of turtles. I may have overcooked this a bit but I felt like making something colorful this morning 😁 #photography #birds #turtles #anhinga

Time for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme, which is #Reflections. The Alternative is #BlueGreatCoal (any of the Tit Bird Species). Here i have a Domestic Mallard, Mandarin, Swan Family & Blue Tit with Caterpillar at Yarrow Valley Country Park. #birds #EastCoastKin #ukbirding @rspb.bsky.social #BirdLife

Good morning. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #branchingout birds on branches, the alternative is #waders wading birds . Good luck. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

Here's a #wader for today's alternate #BirdOfTheDay theme set by Alan. I don't see these as often as great egrets, but this little blue heron just strolled through the gardens right in front of me last month. 😎 #photography #birds #herons #ColorADay #BlueTue #AnimalArtTuesday

Ephemeral

At first it appeared to be 2 males fighting, but it was 1 male trying to mate with a female. But the 2nd male was trying to pull the 1st male off, to get the female for itself. All in the name of 'Love', just look at the female in pic 4. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin #ukbirding #MallardMonday

@robcrank68.bsky.social has set today's #BirdOfTheDay as #BirdButts, and I didn't want to miss out on such a prestigious theme 😁 #photography #birds #nature

Taken earlier this year with my old E-500 and the wonderful Olympus 50mm macro lens. I'm a big fan of results I've gotten from this combo, I just wish it had some modern bells and whistles to make shooting with them easier. 😁 #photography #MinimalMonday #ColorADay #PinkMon #flowers #bloomscrolling

Captured this lovely bee inside a white camellia yesterday. Haven't had a lot of photo walks in the past few weeks due to holidays and travel, but got back out there yesterday and it was so nice. 🌞 #photography #stunday #bees #flowers #bloomscrolling

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #serenity a peaceful bird capture scene. The alternative is #favourite one of your favourite bird captures of 2025. Good luck. I took this one on the 26th of December. #birds #photography #Stunday #EastCoastKin

Stumbled upon this hummingbird while we walked around the port at Roatan last week #FlyDay #photography #birds #hummingbirds

Happy holidays everyone! Going with #InsectThursday today since I came across this searching through my library and it made me happy. 🌞🐝🌼 #photography #ColorADay #YellowThur #flowers #bloomscrolling #bees #pollinators

@alan678.bsky.social set the #BirdOfTheDay theme as #constrast birds, so of course I'm going have to go with a #cardinal photo. Plus the red and green works well for today 😊 #ColorADay #RedWed #photography #birds
