Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #speckles&spots birds with speckled or spotted plumage. The alt theme is #most the bird you think you have most photos of. Good luck. Here’s a Starling taken yesterday. Ps don’t forget to put the theme hashtag too #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
A European starling stands upright on a low ridge of fresh white snow, photographed in close-up from the side. Its dark plumage is densely speckled with small cream-white spots, and subtle iridescent tones of green and purple shimmer across its neck and chest. The bird’s long, pointed bill faces to the right, closed, with a calm but alert expression. One reddish leg is faintly visible beneath the feathers. The background is softly blurred in muted grey and olive tones, creating a moody winter atmosphere that contrasts with the crisp snow and highlights the starling’s intricate feather patterns.

#FlowersOnSunday

Lovely picture, Doris! 🌺
I have been enjoying the snowy weather today — too much snow to find any flowers. Here are some snowdrops from last February — hope to see some of those soon. Have a nice Sunday evening!
A cluster of delicate white snowdrops grows from a patch of green grass lightly dusted with frost. Several slender stems bow under the weight of bell-shaped blossoms, their white petals tipped with small green markings. In the background, dry, silvery-brown foliage of a lavender bush provides a textured, muted contrast to the fresh green leaves and bright white flowers. The scene captures a quiet, early spring moment as life emerges from the cold earth.

Saqsaywaman, Peru: an Incan archeological site that is speculated to be part military fortress and part a place of worship. The conquistadors destroyed and pulled down towers that once stood here as well as much of the site.
