Image description: A profile photo of a large, forest parrot perched on a flat, light-coloured surface. The bird has olive-brown feathers with subtle scalloped patterns, a pale crown, and striking flashes of orange and reddish-pink on its cheeks and underbelly. It features a prominent, deeply curved grey beak and dark, intelligent eyes. The background is a soft, out-of-focus lush green foliage bathed in warm, natural sunlight.

Clue: I am the "chatterbox" of the New Zealand bush, often confused with my alpine cousin, the Kea, but I prefer the canopy of the deep forest to the snowy peaks.

Fun fact: These birds are incredibly skilled "engineers." They use their powerful, brush-tipped tongues to drink nectar and their strong beaks to strip bark in search of sap or grubs. They have even been observed using tools, like sticks, to reach hard-to-get food!

Hand-feeding #hummingbirds at Bioparque Bonita Farm… unreal experience. Inches away from species like the White-necked Jacobin and Rufous-tailed Hummingbird—this is what connection to nature looks like.

A photograph centers on a small, olive-brown passerine, an Empidonax flycatcher, at a moment of stillness. The bird is braced on a network of complex, bare twigs, looking back with a wary, direct gaze over its shoulder.  The bird has a distinct, complete white eye-ring, which encircles its large, dark eye that looks directly towards the viewer from over its shoulder. A small, soft, rounded crest is visible on its crown. The back and wings are a uniform olive-brown. The folded wings display two clear, pale (buffy or creamy) wing bars. Its throat and chest are a dull, light olive-yellow, with a softer yellow wash on its belly. Its tail is medium length.  AI-generated text.

My son went birding with me for a little while yesterday and got a photo of a Western Flycatcher 🥰 He called me over but I was too late and it flew away 😕 #Birds #Nature #Sonoma is in their breeding range. #California Western Flycatcher from the Audubon Bird Guide www.audubon.org/field-guide/...

Exit stage right.. furtively. I think this male Eurasian Blackbird knew he was on camera 😊 Full zoom on my phone this afternoon from my friend's kitchen door. I've narrowed the aspect and "stabilised" the video 👍 #birdsoftheworld #birds | #kent #england

Image description: A hi-res photo of a relatively large bird (around 47 to 51 cm (19 to 20 in) long) standing on bare, light-brown soil. The bird has soft, smoky-grey plumage, a striking tall crest of feathers raised on its head, and a short, black, decurved beak. Its dark eyes are surrounded by slightly paler grey feathers, and it has dark grey legs.

Clue: This bird gets its name from its loud, nasal, and rather bossy call that sounds unmistakably like it is telling you to "go-away!"

Fun fact: These birds act as the "neighborhood watch" of the African savanna. Because they are so vocal and frequently sound their alarm call when they spot a predator, other animals—and even humans—often listen to them to know when danger is nearby.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #DucksOutOfWater, any Duck that is out of the water but NOT FLYING. The Alt Theme is #Finches, any Finch will do.

Here’s a lovely Goldfinch from me.
