Two birds are featured in photograph. Larger bird center right, with wings extended into the air forming a "V" is facing forward, with their head turned to the left centering their attention on a much smaller bird to the left. The Lesser Yellowlegs also have their wings raised above their head in a V as if about to take flight. The smaller bird is facing right looking right. Both are standing in shallow water with a few grasses in the foreground.

Happy mid-week friends... a quick reminder: no one is safe in the marsh if a parent Black-necked Stilt deems you too close to their young--even if said young are on the other side of the pond. #birds #ohbirding #wildlife #Naturephotography #BlackneckedStilts #LesserYellowlegs

A black and white shore bird with long red legs, leaning slightly to one side, away from a bush. Bird and bush both on water.

“I wonder if I can pee like a dog…”

On the left are two Black-necked Stilts, hovering in the air and squawking, as they confront two Roseate Spoonbills, standing in reeds on a small island, on the right. It looks like the spoonbills are yelling back at them

Throwback Thursday - while at South Padre Island in Texas back in the spring, I watched a huge squabble between a pair of very feisty Black-necked Stilts and several Roseate Spoonbills #birds #birding #birdphotography #Texas #Southpadreisland #roseatespoonbills #blackneckedstilts
