A small orange and turquoise bird sits on a branch (too thick to be a twig🤣), facing right. A flat fish in it's beak. The background is muted grey.

Actually, this was the "flat fish lunch" image! But I decided the perch didn't meet the #BirdsOnTwigs theme. So many 👑🐠, so little time (to wind up @alan678.bsky.social )

A Carrion Crow perches, with some difficulty, on two very thin twigs at the top of a tree, it was finding it very difficult to balance

The suggestion for #BirdoftheDay is #Birdsontwigs, this Carrion Crow took a few moments to get itself stable as it landed on the thinnest twigs at the top of this tree in Cardiff Bay #birds #birdingWales #UKbirding

A Lark sparrow sits on a downsloping dead branch/twig and faces the viewer.  We seed a white chest and abdomen, and a head turned to our right.  S/he has a cream colored eye brow bordered on both sides by a rich brown stripe going from the beak to the back of head.  Lots of twigs and greenery fill out the rest of the frame.

This was actually the picture I was looking for, but of course only found it after posting the previous one. Same type of bird, but more of a twig than a branch. #BirdoftheDay #BirdsOnTwigs #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin #Photography

A Great Blue Heron on a large twig, or maybe a branch, of a tree, that has fallen near the water.  The Heron has its neck curled up and bill pointed to the right of frame.

Pretty Cozy Up There

These two #BirdsOnTwigs are a couple of Common Grackles trying to share the tiptop of a tall hemlock to soak up some afternoon rays. I like how one is using its leg on main branch for balance.

So... today's #birdoftheday is #BirdsOnTwigs. Seeming to defy gravity, this Red-winged Blackbird was photographed this year near a pond in #Calgary. It's not an illusion, for his tail and body hides most of the small branch, er... #twig. 😊 #photography #bird 🪶 #birds #nature #wild

A red winged blackbird is perched on a bare gray branch. Facing the camera, we can see its bright red/orange and yellow shoulder feathers against the rest of its pure black plumage. The background is a tangle of grayish branches, and below are cattails that have gone to seed, so are now tannish blobs.
