A close up of a light brown bird with a white throat and “eyebrow.” There is a black ring below its neck, a thin black line through its eye, and a black patch on the nape of its neck. Its eye is large and orange. It has the slightly worried expression that killdeers always do.
A close up of a sleek-looking bird in flight. The head and breast are snow white. The body and wings are a rich reddish brown. The hooked beak and legs are yellow. The kite has a clear amber eye.
A blue-green bird with a large heavy beak sits on a blanch in a lush green rainforest. The birds breast and belly are a russet color. It has a white ring around its neck and hints of white on the underside of its wings. It has keen black eyes.
A small bird of prey sits on a wire against a brilliant blue sky. The bird has a mottled brown upper body with a light rust belly. Its breast is black and white speckled and the tips of its wings have black feathers. There are vertical black and white stripes on the side of its face, and the top of its head has a blue-gray cap. All in all, it’s a very patchwork looking bird.
