Six birds with black 'masks' rimmed with white across their eyes, tan upper chest, butter-yellow lower belly and legs, grey wings... almost all splashing in a puddle, one in center about to land. Fabulous tan tufts or crowns on heads.

The blooms are winding down now, but the short crape myrtles are perfect for so many birds to scurry to for a place to feel safe. Juvenile Cardinal, Ruby- throated Hummingbird, and an Northern Mockingbird

One of the most frequent #birdsinmygarden is the Bushtit. They often visit in flocks (which my brother likes to call "a gentleman's club"🤦🏼‍♀️), and a pair occasionally elects to build a nest in one of the firs. This little lady does not appear to be impressed with me! #BirdOfTheDay #birds

a small Black Phoebe (a flycatcher species) is perched on a curved metal garden ornament. The bird has dark plumage on its head and upper body, contrasting with a white belly and is looking to the side. It has a small insect in his mouth. The background is soft, out-of-focus green foliage.

Delighted to share the most reliable visitor to my garden for #BirdOfTheDay — the scrub jay. Is there a sassier bird?

A pileated woodpecker checks out the base of a tree in our yard. Its back is to us, showing sleek black feathers. Its head is turned to the left, showing off the strong beak, white line from cheek to shoulder, and red crest. They nested somewhere nearby this year, and their raucous call and loud pecking echoes through the neighborhood frequently.

The pileated woodpeckers are frequent visitors. Sorry for the blur. It was taken through a window screen to avoid disturbing!

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #birdsinmygarden; although technically my entry from yesterday (smol bird) also qualifies, here's a father and child Northern Cardinal from that same day (that was a very good day for birds out the office window). Check the alt text for what they're eating.

for Alan H's #birdoftheday - theme today is #birdsinmygarden I spent a couple of years stuck in my house and spent hours every day in my tiny california backyard photographing whatever couldn't escape me. Tiny Pine Siskins have such attitude! #birds #photography #greensat #coloraday

For #BirdOfTheDay today, #birdsinmygarden I decided to share the most unusual bird I've seen in my yard. These are wild turkeys. Wild turkeys are fairly common around me, but to see them wandering around the neighborhood and even coming into yards ... that was pretty unusual!

The fieldfare is a large member of the thrush family and is slightly bigger than a blackbird. It has a characteristic blue-grey head with a yellow beak, brown-grey wings and a speckled breast.
It is perched on the branch of a Guelder Rose, eyeing up the bright red berries.
This bird is from Scandinavia and comes to the UK over winter.

The Rose-breasted Grosbeak stops by to feed on berries from the Black Gum tree during migration season. I wish they would stay longer, but they must continue on their route south. #birdoftheday #birdsinmygarden #birds #nature #eastcoastkin #nativeplants #gardens

A couple of them arrived in my yard this past week— quite early!   I am expecting more to arrive in October.

A visiting magpie with friends perched at the top of the tree looking down at the bird feeder. Deep in thought wondering how he might access the small dish of bird seed.

I guess I'd better do something with my day. Here is my submission for #BirdOfTheDay by @alan678.bsky.social & @robcrank68.bsky.social The garden Magpie!

I understand the purist view about not photographing 'birds on a feeder' but I think sometimes its too good to miss.
