A small bird with a black and white head and neck, dark gray back, and light grey belly stands on concrete surrounded by black and yellow bird seed. Bird face is slightly turned toward camera with one visible eye looking directly in the lens. Bright-green grass is visible above and behind the bird.
You gotta grow a thick skin if you’re gonna hang out with birds. They’re prone to snap judgments and they talk a lot of shit.

A Stellar Jay goes to town on a tower-style bird feeder; seeds are flying from the opening. He has a bright blue body, gradually darkening to black head feathers. He has a black crest and 2 blue "racing stripes" above his eyes
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Feeders — birds on feeders.
Jays are one of my favorite birds. Yeah, they're messy and noisy but that BLUE!

Kestral with wings open. He's sitting on a sisal-covered, arched perch. He has leather jesses attached to his leg. His face has vertical black stripes; one under and one behind his eye. His cap, tail and body are brown, with bars across the tail feathers. The underside of his spread wings are soft brown along the top and pale buff below, on the longer feathers. Those are barred, also. His perch sits on a table and there's a stripped log column behind him. Taken at the Dalles Visitors Center in Oregon.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WingsOpenNotFlying. I hate to go back to my kestrel friend so soon but he is literally the only bird I have that fits the criteria. I could sit today out but he's just so pretty.

An American Kestrel sits on his comfy perch. His facial markings, 2 black, vertical bars on each side, one under the eye & one over the ear, are striking. His body has brown feathers barred with black on the top and tawny vertical bars on a pale brown belly/chest. His small beak is very sharp and his intense black eyes are staring us down. Really, though, he was a sweetheart.
Found this picture of a kestrel I met at the visitor's center at The Dalles, OR. Offering it for #BirdoftheDay and the theme #staredown. He was a permanent resident, couldn't be released due to injury. First kestrel I ever saw; I fell in love!

I commented on a George Takei post & it seems people have been commenting on it ☺️ Even some followed me because of it? So, it’s probably a good time to remind people I’m usually more 🎶 bird, bird, bird; bird is the word🎶 🪶 Hope you still stick around 😄 #berwickswren #wren #pnwbirds #boatmanorinknest

Nothing like an accipiter drive-by to stop the fights over whether the song sparrow gets to monopolize the feeder or not.
Song sparrow was trying to intimidate the spotted towhee (who was ignoring him) at the time.
Juncos were probably rooting for the hawk, which missed.

What specific strains of fuschia are (1) good for hanging pots and (2) actually produce nectar for hummingbirds? To tempt them from my native garden up to my balcony :) Until now I've had great luck with the $20 CostCo baskets but 2025's variety was flowers-only. #pnwbirds #birding

Copper’s hawk blending in to orange leaves in a tree against a blue sky.
Double crested cormorant spreading out its wings to get some sun. The cormorant is standing on a log in a marsh pond.
American coot standing on a rock in a shallow marsh. It is reaching its left leg up near its face.
A blue heron standing in yellow/gold marsh grass.
It’s been a while, but I finally got out to see some birds yesterday, and it was a perfect fall morning. 📸 🪶

Bald eagle flyover yesterday afternoon with a stick longer than its wingspan. Fall home improvement? Bit early for nesting. The crows were thrilled their enemy was encumbered and unable to outfly them and were enthusiastically screaming and attacking en masse. random bird thoughts ..

A great horned owl (patchy brown owl with prominent ears) perches on a small branch in front of the trunks of Douglas fir trees. The owl is framed by another branch with smaller mossy branches hanging down. The owl appears to be looking at the viewer. Right eye mostly open; left eye closed.
They say when both eyes are on you it pierces your soul, so I guess we are lucky that this Great Horned Owl is still opening them.
