A Gray Crowned Crane spreads its beautiful wings as it struts across a grassy field on an overcast afternoon.

A Snowy Egret, perched on a palm frond, raises its left wing as though it's flagging flight instructions for an incoming bird. The feathers on the top of its head are standing straight up, giving the egret a look of alarm. Perhaps just having a bad hair (feather) day?

A male Ostrich spreads its wings as part of a mating display for the nearby female Ostrich. They are standing in an open field on a sunny day.

A Palm Tanager stretches, spreading its wings as it stand on a branch. The backlighting shines through the wing's primary feathers, creating a striking image.

#BirdOfTheDay alternate is #OpenWings

I chose non-flight photos because that's... obvious. Only one of these photos is from the U.S.
