#Birds Rob Crank Photography ‪@robcrank68.bsky.social‬ chose
today's #BirdOfTheDay theme as #BranchBirds, any bird on a branch. I chose this young Vireo sitting in a Black Hawthorn (Crataegus douglasii) bush.

“I go down to the shore in the morning
and depending on the hour the waves
are rolling in or moving out,
and I say, oh, I am miserable,
what shall —
what should I do? And the sea says
in its lovely voice:
Excuse me, I have work to do.”

Good Morning ☀️

@robcrank68.bsky.social chose #BranchBirds (any bird on a branch) for today’s #BirdOfTheDay.

A Great Egret on a little bit bigger branch 😉… also for #ThrowbackThursday as it’s from last May.

Common grackle. I am going to start a petition to replace the word “common” in bird names to “OG”. Because, let’s face it, “common” birds are actually pretty badass.

Oooh!!
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BranchBirds, any bird on a branch, the Alt theme is #Robins, any Robin will do. These 2 finches, one American gold, the other a House along with an ornery looking American Robin fit the bill, I think. #nikon #wildlife #eastcoastkin 📷🤓🤘🏼

Ik heb geen sperwer voor #februarivogelmaand, maar wel iets voor #BirdOfTheDay, waar #PeacefulSolitide het thema is: a singular bird, in a peaceful setting.

Alan @alan678.bsky.social' #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PeacefulSolitide a singular bird, in a peaceful setting.
The alt is #DramaQueens upset or angry birds.
A solitary Whimbrel at low tide. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin @waderquest.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social #nikon #sigma

Good morning. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #PeacefulSolitude, a singular bird, in a peaceful setting.

That takes me back to Brazil, and a quiet early morning coffee enjoyed watching an Amethyst Woodstar in a friend's garden.

I had some fun with a Pileated Woodpecker yesterday. With the warmer weather, the insects have been more active...bringing out the woodpeckers more.
