#BirdPhotography #Singapore #WorldMigratoryBirdDay

Birds cross borders without passports. What they find in our cities – safe green corners or plastic waste and bright lights – can decide their survival.

🐦 This #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, let us remember that coexistence is built in everyday choices: fewer pesticides, safer windows, and native plants.

While searching for new bird species for the day list on #OctoberBigDay / #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, this romp of globally threatened Smooth-coated Otters in the canal infested w/ trash & the invasive Blackchin Tilapia was a welcomed distraction

Boven ons hoofd speelt zich nu een natuurwonder af: de vogeltrek. In welk NL keren vogels terug dit voorjaar?

A very sunny yellow and black male hooded oriole is perched on a blue fence rail facing the camera so his jet black throat patch is visible.

My favorite migratory #birds have been gone over a month but memories of the Hooded orioles remain strong! #WorldMigratoryBirdDay

Day late? No way! Sure, yesterday was #worldmigratorybirdday but with birds in migration literally any time you read this, someplace in the world, we’d argue that everyday is world migratory bird day. Shout out to our OGs, our day ones, our kings & queens … the Piping Plovers.

World Migratory Bird Day ended 90 minutes ago but still want to share this Cape May warbler migrating through North Carolina. Always fun to see migrants passing through!

It was #WorldMigratoryBirdDay today and the weather was wonderful. I decided to submit an eBird checklist and had 36 species seen or heard! The unusual birds didn't pose for photos but the feeders were busy with the birds who knew about them. I hadn't spotted a Bluebird since spring. 🪶

It’s #WorldMigratoryBirdDay! 🐦 #Birds face many dangers on their migration, and one danger they face too often is free-roaming cats. Create #SharedSpaces by keeping #CatsIndoors, in catios, or on a leash and harness to help birds survive their migrations. 🏠🐈

It'a #WorldMigratoryBirdDay! Bring out the birds!!!

Here's one of my favorite migratory birds, the American Oystercatcher

Today is #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, a time to treasure and pledge to protect our feathered friends who enrich our lives every day. This gorgeous bird is a #GreenHeron. Look at that chestnut brown neck. And how can anyone miss those brilliant yellow eyes and runway model legs.

Happy #WorldMigratoryBirdDay to all who celebrate! I’m digging my most abundant buds of the day — the American Robin. I love seeing great big flocks cleaning out the mountain ash.

Today is #WorldMigratoryBirdDay (11 October 2025).
In honour of the day, here is a pair of Sandhill Cranes (Antigone canadensis). This species travels from Northern Alberta and other parts of the Canadian North to southern USA and Mexico.

In honor of World Migratory Bird Day, here is a migratory Long-billed Dowitcher (Limnodromus scolopaceus). This species travels from the shores of the Arctic Ocean in Alaska to the edges of the southern USA and Mexico. #migration #bird #science #shorebird #worldmigratorybirdday

Birding helps us connect with the natural world, and fall migration is one of its greatest spectacles.

This #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, the ABA invites everyone to celebrate the wonder of migration while following the ABA Code of Birding Ethics.

In a sad place where autumn bird migration means the local forests, parks and rivers have emptied out. 😔

For #WorldMigratoryBirdDay I have put together a college of some of my favourite birds that visit the UK.
