Living in Maryland now, I invite grackles into my yard to keep the Starlings away. But growing up in Texas, grackles were the enemy. They pooped everywhere, and were loud and menacing as they gathered by the hundreds in the H-E-B parking lots. #BirdSky

It snowed a bit today in suburban Boston, so it's fitting we had a visit from Mr. Cardinal

Is there a #birdsky tag? If so, look at the post I’m replying to!
A photo of a short-eared owl (Asio flammeus) in flight with wings fully extended, flying toward the right of frame. It is a medium-sized owl with brown and cream barred plumage, a round face, very short ear tufts, and golden-yellow eyes. The owl is captured mid-flight against a soft, blurred gray and brown background of cloudy dusk sky and mostly-bare winter trees.
Used up my warbler photo last time it was the theme. Here's a short-eared owl I never got to go back and see again as planned. #BirdOfTheDay #RareEncounters

A pied-billed grebe, a bird the size of a small football, floats across the water. It has a large, blocky head, a very short neck, and a thick, whitish, chicken-like bill.
The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #Warblers and the alt theme is #RareEncounters — birds you have captured least in your camera roll.
I’ve posted a few warblers over the weeks (no shade), so I’m going with this pied-billed grebe, which is rare to me. I’ve only ever seen two! #Birds #BirdSky 🪶

#BirdOfTheDay theme today is #Warblers - the neck wrenching, flittering, mesmerizing and one of my favourite small #Birds.
This Yellow-Rumped, was amongst the spring Cherry Blossoms having lunch.

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #Black&Red. Not Johnny Walker, but rather birds with both Black & Red colours on them.
Please welcome back our dear old friend - the turkey vulture. #EastCoastKin

Digital art of four chickens. A brown one with speckled feathers around her neck, a black and brown mottled one with an afro, a cream colored one with a reddish belly, and a reddish cream one with fluffy legs.
Digital art of a rosy faced lovebird perched on a branch. A small light green parrot with darker green wings and tail, and peachy pink on its face and neck.
Day six of #RepostYourArt, bird.
My cousins pet chickens, and a friends childhood lovebird!
I usually prefer furry animals, but the few occasions I've had to draw birds have been fun.

A photo of a male red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) perched on a thin brown marsh plant with wings raised in display and oversaturated red and gold shoulder patches, or epaulets, puffed out as it sings. It is facing toward the left of frame with its beak wide open, and small red patches of its bare throat are visible through its feathers as it strains, lit vividly by the sunlight of a bright afternoon. It is a mostly jet-black bird with dark eyes, beak, and legs to contrast with the bright red and gold coloring at the tops of its wings. The background is blurred pale blue-gray sky and brown marsh grasses.
The theme commands and I must obey. A black & red bird. #BirdOfTheDay

A lime green yellow-naped Amazon is hanging on the swinging door of a large, plastic animal travel crate. Her body is turned towards the crate, and she is peeking inside with curiosity.
Flying internat’ly is stressful for us, imagine what it’s like for a free-range (at home) parrot trapped in a crate for 12-20+ hrs!
I made a training plan to get our Flossy ready for the move, incl airport/plane sounds + eventually, long car rides in-crate. It starts here, Day 1: Go Floss!
