A photo of a black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) perched on a diagonal black cable in the shade. It is a small songbird with a black bib and cap, dark eyes, bright white cheeks, a gray back, and pale buff underparts. It is facing toward the left with a blurred green conifer background.
A photo of a song sparrow (Melospiza melodia) perched on a wire fence in position to launch itself downward, wings slightly spread, showing reddish-brown plumage streaked with gray on its head and a rusty-red tail, in warm afternoon sunlight creating dark shadows behind it.
A photo of a white-crowned sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) standing on a wooden fence top waiting for an opportunity to use a platform feeder currently occupied by an out-of-focus male house finch. It is a medium-sized streaky brown and tan sparrow with bright contrasting black and white stripes on top of its head and a yellow beak. It's facing toward the left of frame in bright afternoon sunlight.
A photo of two house finches (Haemorhous mexicanus) perched atop a wooden trellis, peering downward, in warm sunlight. The female, in the foreground, is a streaky brown and tan bird with a short light brown beak and brown eyes. The male, out of focus in the background, has a bright red face and chest. The background is a blurry blue-toned commercial building.
These are some of the little guys who were hanging out in the front yard yesterday afternoon. #SmallBirdSaturday

Small birds in flight haha what do I look like, a person with reflexes? Here's a finch holding nice and still. #BirdOfTheDay #Finches

The beginnings of a wren nest in the midst of a magnolia leaf wreath on the front door.
A bird house portal fully stuffed with a wren's nest hanging in our holly tree. Yep. The front door wrens found a more suitable place for a nest.
A wren with a large mouth full of oak beards for the nest it's building in the clay bird house. 📸 Carolina wren: Thryothorus ludovicianus
A wren's tail peeking out of the right side of the clay bird house as he goes in to drop off some oak beards. A large oak tree is in the background.
#Birds are funny. Wrens tried to make a nest in the front door wreath a couple of weeks ago. Then got irritated that we kept going in & out the door, so they moved on. Today we found where they moved to. Then I caught this 2d guy making a nest in our clay bird house out front. 🪶 #SmallBirdSaturday

A high-angle, medium shot depicts a group of puffed-up, brown and tan house sparrows perched within a complex, arching network of bare, tangled branches. In the soft-focus background, a mallard duck is visible, its dark green head providing a subtle point of color against the bright, high-key white background. The composition emphasizes the intricate, calligraphic lines of the winter branches and the survival instincts of the small birds as they huddle together in a protective thicket.

A thin branching vertical twig fills most of the frame against a deep blue sky. To the left of the twig, a small sunlit streaky brown bird with a reddish head and chest hovers with his wings wide open and looking up towards his next landing spot.

The Crested lark is easily recognized by the small crest on its head, which it can raise or lower depending on its mood. Unlike many birds, it spends most of its time walking or running on the ground rather than perching in trees. Its brown, streaked feathers help it blend perfectly into dusty or sandy environments, making it hard to spot.

Early evening on the West coast of Ireland and a large number of starlings - apparently known in Ireland as ‘druids’- gather on the power lines and chatter noisily, possibly exchanging information about food sources.

A small bird napping for #SmallBirdSaturday. This Sandpiper was very much in its own little world for a while, just resting.

A male Tree Swallow sitting on top of a brown, wooden nesting box on s silver pole, and another swallow flying above. Both birds have white breasts, brilliant blue heads and backs, and blue/brown wings and tail. The nesting box is next to a pond with brownish water and surrounded by dried yellow-brown grasses. On the other side of the pond are fallen reddish-brown leaves and several brown tree trunks. Seen at Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary in Natick, Massachusetts.
For #SmallBirdSaturday and today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #SmallBirdsInFlight, here are two male #TreeSwallows. I was happy to get at least one swallow in flight! (Natick, MA - 4/4/26) 😍💙🪶

Tiny bird with wings up and out, approaching a Yerba Santa bloom. The subject has iridescent purple on his head, plus green on his body. Background is blurry green.
For #SmallBirdsInFlight #BirdIfTheDay theme, and #SmallBirdSaturday a Costa’s Hummingbird in flight.
Photo by Kort Duce A male yellow-headed blackbird takes flight over last year’s cattails at a local nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the blackbird appears in the lower half of the frame with its wings down and tail fanned as it flies toward the camera, its gaze intense and focused. The background is a soft blur of yellow-brown cattails from the previous season, with a hint of blue water reflecting the clear, bluebird sky typical of Colorado.
