The theme @alan678.bsky.social has chosen for #BirdOfTheDay is #walking. Here we have a marching #dunlin, a strolling #PurpleGallinule (with its absurd feet!), a #RedWingedBlackbird walking on water, and a #YellowCrownedNightHeron pausing on a boardwalk. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
Day 10 of @birbfest.challenge - American Purple Gallinule.
Those feet are only exaggerated slightly...
Tried a new technique and a new paper. The paper can go, but the technique can stay!

A deep blue-purple waterbird looks out from dense bright green lily pads, and shows off its turquoise, red and yellow bill.
It took three visits to the lily-clogged Sharrott’s Pond on Staten Island, and multiple hours of careful scanning, before this #purplegallinule, the county’s first, finally poked its head up out of the pads just while I was looking in the right place! #birds #birding #birdsseenin2025

A Purple Gallinule. Its very long feet are make them adept at walking on concentrations of acquatic plants. A very distinctive red and yellow beak and bright yellow legs make them hard to miss. Celery Fields, Sarasota, Florida.

A brightly colored Purple Gallinule with iridescent blue-purple plumage, a red and yellow bill, and long yellow legs walks across large green lily pads on the water's surface. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
It's hard to decide what's more amazing about the Purple Gallinule – its unbelievable iridescent colors or its ability to walk on lily pads! ✨ Those giant yellow feet distribute the weight of its vibrant blue-purple body perfectly.

Look at the green, and you may find the purple.
There are many beautiful colors found in the swamp!

A purple gallinule swamp bird strolls in a lake covered with green algae and vegetation. The bird has a bright red beak with yellow tip, a white spot on its forehead, a peacock-blue neck that turns olive green down its back. Its legs are bright yellow.
First time posting for #BlueskyMonday and I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be any blue subject or specifically a “blue sky”. I see both. I’ll go with the latter (correct me if wrong):
Although it’s technically a #PurpleGallinule the purple part looks #blue to me! #bird #EastCoastKin
