Well, I tried to resist #BirdOfTheDay but seeing so many egrets made me feel left out! Here is Yellow Socks previously posted.

A bird we perhaps take for granted. The colour coordination is down to the Art in Nature. No, I am not a birder, but I do like birds!

A portrait of a Mallard Duck. The green foliage provides an ideal background. The green sheen of the head plumage, together with the bright yellow beak, white neck ring and brown breast feathers, is striking.

Missed Firefly's Blue Ghost capture of a solar eclipse seen from the Moon's surface on March 14. Sharing it is a way of saving it for my own future joy 🙂 Ofc that's Earth blocking our star.

"Saskatoon thru the river's eye" 2018
My own photo taken on a dated Samsung SSD camera. I'm no photographer so don't look too close or its badness may overwhelm. As a phone-viewed image I quite like it.

both banks of the Saskatchewan river are visible through the arc of University bridge from boat mud river. The downtown is reflected in calm waters.

For #Stunday, a waterlily captured at Kew Botanical Gardens. I removed the green lily pad and placed on a black background for added contrast.
