PING TITS!

It’s that time of year when these very reclusive birds emerge from the reeds in search of grit to help their stomachs adjust from a summer diet of insects to a winter one of seeds. OK, you can call them bearded reedlings if you really must.

#Bahrain #Birds Pied Kingfisher, an irregular passage migrant. Some years, they are not to be found; in others, two or three birds will stop by equally at home on the shore or at any fresh water pond.

Caught in a quiet stare-down with a Snowy Plover.

Thanks to ongoing efforts to protect and restore fragile coastal habitats, these threatened shorebirds are slowly beginning to rebound.

This is Charlie, our local resident male Red-Tailed Hawk, on rodent patrol in the park early this morning. Happy Friday. 🪶

An adult male Red-Tailed Hawk flies straight towards me with his legs dangling. He has bright brown eyes and a thirst for rodents.

Forward facing bird?
How about a grumpy Chiffchaff? 😂 #birds
A small yellow chested, brown backed bird, is looking straight at you. It is sitting in a tree with branches alongside and behind the bird.

Hey bsky. My favorite thing right now is forward-facing Brewer's Blackbirds. Just so you know.

Show me your forward-facing birds! 🎨🪶 #BirdArt #SciArt
Page of digital sketches of three male Brewer's Blackbirds, all facing forward (or mostly). On left, the bird is standing tall and alert with his neck stretched slightly, and he is colored with bright iridescent purple and blue. The other two are sketched in more muted grays. Upper right, the bird is calling upward with beak open and with tiny pupils. Lower right, he is puffed up, looking straight on, as if about to sing and show how buff he is to the ladies.
