A pair of Canada geese patrolling the beaver pond which has ripply reflections of the trees brown and green across the water and a bank of wheat colored dried vegetation

According to these two, they own the beaver pond #TheBirdofTheDay

For my #TheBirdOfTheDay and #ManMadePerch entry here is a pigeon who seems intent on ignoring the “No riding on sidewalks” warning.

#TheBirdOfTheDay theme is #winterlight and the alt theme is #BirdsYouLove I couldn't choose between the two! Hope that's ok.

Great Egret in the Jan light.
The Wood Duck. I love their shape all the colors. They can be a challenge to photograph in different lighting. I learn from them.

Another photo of the Cooks's Swift. A bird native to South East Asia. I honestly can't believe how well the photo has come out. I've probably wasted thousands of photos trying to get a swift in flight.

Another take off for #thebirdoftheday
Not the greatest photo in the world but it does show the length of the wings of Europe's biggest raptor rather well, just under 3 metres wingspan. An old world Black Vulture. Nothing cinerous about it!
