Three cormorants perched on fallen branches over water. The middle bird has its wings spread. They are happy.

Happened upon a lovely cormorant colony. #BirdOfTheDay #naturalperch #birds

An osprey is perched on end of a human-made platform nest. It’s body is facing to the left, but it’s head is turned around to the right.

An osprey is perched on a tree branch, looking to the left and down. It is perched on one talon as the other leg is slightly lifted.

The Osprey have returned. Collectively, they win both of the #BirdOfTheDay themes.

The photo is an image of a California Condor with its wings spread, perched on a rock formation in a natural, arid, rocky habitat. The condor is predominantly black with a featherless, reddish-orange head, characteristic of an adult. Its massive wings, which can span up to 9.5 feet, are fully extended. A white identification tag with the number "02" is visible on each wing, a common feature for tracked individuals in conservation programs. The condor is surrounded by large rocks and boulders. Some sparse, dry vegetation is visible in the background.

The alt theme for today's #BirdoftheDay is #NaturalPerch, which gives me an opportunity to post a shot of one of the many yellow-rumped warblers (Audubon's) that were chasing bugs in our yard early this morning.

The Crowletariat gather for a union meeting outside my window.

A small Dunnock perches on a short, weathered branch, its soft grey breast and face contrasting with warm brown, streaked wings. The bird’s fine, pointed beak and reddish-brown eye are sharply in focus, while a sunlit tangle of green leaves and stems blurs into the background, highlighting its delicate, alert posture.
