Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ComeEatWithMe, birds who have food in their beaks. The Alt Theme is #Turdidae, any of the bird species in this group.

I choose a Common Blackbird that fits both themes.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #DucksOutOfWater, any Duck that is out of the water but NOT FLYING.

Do I count if standing on a rock?

Today's Bird of the Day theme is "JKLMNOP", any bird that has any of these letters at the beginning of their first or second names.
I go with a juvenile Rufous-collared Kingfisher and Jerdon's Baza in flight.

Photograph of a puffin. The predominantly black and white bird is standing on a rusty rail with its wings out stretched as it gets its balance. The side view of its head shows off its huge beak with the red stripes at the end, and its clown like face
