This bird has a black head with red eyes and white chest with orange wings and black tail perched on twig surrounding by red azalea flowers

I think I have posted this before — but here’s a male Eastern Towhee perched on an azalea twig framed by red azalea flowers. Azaleas are in peak right now— so beautiful! #birdoftheday #Petals&Perches #springflowers #spring #flowers #birds #ECK

A Great White Egret flying through marshland, with purple loosestrife plants

@alan678.bsky.social Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Petals&Perches any bird with flowers in capture. Here's a Great White Egret hovering among purple loosestrife, a pretty but aggressive invasive plant that displaces vegetation in the wetlands. #Birds #GreatWhiteEgret #WetlandBirds

Gorgeous image Alan!

A male stonechat with a black head, white neck patch, and warm orange chest perches upright on a curved stem of bright yellow rapeseed flowers. It stands above a dense, softly blurred field of matching yellow blooms, creating a glowing golden backdrop. The bird faces slightly to the right, sharply in focus against the hazy sea of colour.

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Petals&Perches any bird with flowers in capture. The alt is #WhatTheFlock any capture of three or more of the same bird. Good luck. #birds #photography #ECK

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.

Another fun theme from @alan678.bsky.social for #birdoftheday — #ABCD My offering is a Brandt’s Cormorant shading her chicks. These birds nest by the thousands on Alcatraz Island. Photo is from February.

I love this shot!

A male Canvasback duck rising out of wetland waters, with wings extended. Males have rusty colored heads and necks, black and white backs. Long sloping foreheads.

@alan678.bsky.social The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ABCD, any bird beginning any part of their name with these letters. Extra points for a set using all. Here's a male Canvasback duck demonstrating why, according to Cornell lab, Canvasbacks are the "aristocrat" of ducks #Ducks #Birds #Canvasback

Thank you Justine!

Fabulous shot!

A male wood duck stands at the tip of a very tall thin tree stump with that runs up from the bottom center of the frame, with a slight slant towards the right. Behind a blurry pond reflects green foilage with a blurry second duck standing at the end of a log that sits in the water.

Good morning everyone!

Rob has declared today's #BirdOfTheDay as #DucksOutOfWater, so here's a wood duck precariously perched on a tree stump right in front of my favorite pond 😁
