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

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/...

Good morning, Bluesky. 🌞
The sun rises through the morning mist in Sweet Potato Gorge. The gorge is often mentioned in the aboriginal folklore of the Ami people in Hualien, Taiwan.

Image description: A side-profile, photo of a relatively large bird (26 to 31 cm (about 10 to 12 inches) long)  perched on a weathered, wooden post. The bird has a distinct jet-black head that contrasts sharply with its white throat and neck collar. Its wings and back are a vibrant, deep purple-blue, while its underparts are a warm, rufous-orange. The bird features a large, striking coral-red bill and matching bright red feet. It is set against a soft, out-of-focus green background.

Clue: Look for the "black cap"—a jet-black head that starkly contrasts with a bright white throat—combined with that unmistakable, large, coral-red bill.

Fun fact: When in flight, this bird reveals large, brilliant white patches on its wings; these act as "lights" that flash brightly, making them clearly visible against their blue-and-black plumage.

#Birds Alan H ‪@alan678.bsky.social‬ says the #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #JKLMNOP , any bird that has any of these letters at the beginning of their first or second names. Here is an American Pipit, which I was quite excited to see as it has been at least 4 years since I last saw one.
