a picture of several American goldfinches, perched on a unique, rustic metal bird feeder. the feeder is designed to resemble an upside-down umbrella, complete with a small, whimsical metal cat in the center. the birds are actively feeding while siting on the rim of the umbrella. in the background is blurry green foliage.

Extreme close up of a small bird with mostly brown feathers, except for a splash of red extending from its head and partway down its breast, as if it's been hit by a paint splatter. It has a small, silvery beak and bright black eyes, and it's perched on a branch looking left.

The alt theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #Finches. I took a picture of this house finch about this time last year.

Two-for-one today with a flying purple finch. Haven’t figured out this perspective of wing yet but I still think it turned out nice.

This shifty little tufted titmouse pulled a dine-and-dash. Keep an eye out. #Birds #BirdSky 🪶

Ding ding! I'm hitting both #BirdOfTheDay themes ( #SmallBirdaInFlight and #Finches ) with this levitating American Goldfinch dilemma-horned between two frosty thistles on a particularly cold Ontario winter morning.

A photo of a back-lit male house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus) perched on a curved black metal garden stake on a sunny afternoon, its back to the camera and its head turned over its shoulder toward the right of frame. It is a streaky brown and tan finch with a bright red head, short light brown beak, and dark eyes. The background is blurred dark greenery.

Small birds in flight haha what do I look like, a person with reflexes? Here's a finch holding nice and still. #BirdOfTheDay #Finches

Small yellow birds with gray wings (two on the left and one at top right) eating seeds on stalks of seed-covered tall grass. Sunlight is illuminating the grass, and the path and shrubs behind it is in shadow.

My humble contribution to ‪

Once again I'll go for a double with a small finch in flight. Here's a Redpoll exiting stage left at Nome #Alaska

A strawberry red bird is perched on a narrow piece of dowelling, facing forward with it's head turned to the right. It has a grey triangular beak, deep red crown & cheek, brown with reddish streaks at the back of the head, a red breast followed by beige with dark brown streaks.

#Birds #Finch Rob ‪@robcrank68.bsky.social‬ says today's #BirdOfTheDay Alt Theme is #Finches, any Finch will do. The only finch here, at this time of the year, is the House Finch, which I love dearly. This fellow is taking advantage of a feeder on a sunny (not for long) morning.

Center frame, a Pine Siskin is perched upon a just starting to flower tree. Perched and facing right, with their head slightly turned toward the viewer

Happy Saturday friends... Been out looking for incoming migrants but keep getting stopped by outgoing ones. Enjoy this beautiful Pine Siskin, a small finch who will soon be gone in a matter of weeks. #birds #birdingOH #wildife #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #Birdoftheday #finches

Photo by Kort Duce A male yellow-headed blackbird takes flight over last year’s cattails at a local nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the blackbird appears in the lower half of the frame with its wings down and tail fanned as it flies toward the camera, its gaze intense and focused. The background is a soft blur of yellow-brown cattails from the previous season, with a hint of blue water reflecting the clear, bluebird sky typical of Colorado.
