A vulture circling high above the Gorges du Tarn region in Southern France (and apparently looking down at me!).

Of course my #outstretched #bird for #BirdOfTheDay has to be a Bald Eagle. #Birds #Photography #Raptors #Nature
Two side by side photos of two puffins, one with outstretched wings. In the first one the puffin with the open wings is looking at the other puffin, then in the second picture is looking at the camera. The second puffin has cocked its head back very exaggeratedly in the second photo.
For today's #birdoftheday of #outstretched, these two puffins being absolute hams in these side by side photos taken about 1/2s apart.

My entry for today's #BirdoftheDay- a Double-crested cormorant, Great black-backed gull and Scarlet tanager (which should be extra points for being both #outstretched and #red.

A gull flies above the sand headed toward the ocean waves.
Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #outstretched.
I think this fits the bill - or at least the wingspan!

From 2013
An adult female Red-Tailed Hawk soars with her wings outstretched. She is banded with a silver ring on her right leg and a blue ring on her left. The blue ring reads "42A" so that is what I call her. She is at least 8 years old and has had several offspring.
For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme #Outstretched I am sharing a photo of a female Red-Tailed Hawk I've known for a few years. She is banded and one of her anklets reads "42A" so that's my name for her. She's a beauty. 🪶
#Raptors
A silhouetted duck is descending to a calm water surface with both wings and feet outstretched widely. The water looks white from the strong evening sun that lights up the scenery from behind. Another duck on the left is watching the newcomer. In the middle at the bottom there is my copyright saying 'C. P. / All rights reserved. Do not reupload. Do not use with/for any kind of AI.'
For @robcrank68.bsky.social's #BirdOfTheDay main theme today, #Outstretched, I have this mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) in its landing approach on a late afternoon.
I loved the high contrast the low sun provided here.
