I love it when I have a picture that meets both #Birdoftheday prompts. #Lookingatyou and #Ontherocks - a Black Oystercatcher on weed covered rocks. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin #Photography

A Black Oystercatcher, looking at me as it decides which clam to go for next. Surrounded by weed covered rocks.

Owls: Champs of #LookingAtYou. Barred owl for #BirdOfTheDay 📷🌿🪶🦉

A photo of a barred owl (Strix varia), a large gray owl with brown vertical stripes, a rounded head with no ear tufts, a sharp yellow beak, and black eyes perched on a grayish-brown tree branch covered in pale green moss and lichen facing the camera and looking directly at it with more lichen-covered branches in the background behind it.

#BirdOfTheDay : un oiseau qui vous regarde #LookingAtYou
Petit pouillot véloce qui se demande ce que c'est que cette grande chose avec un énorme œil noir pointé dans sa direction.
#Photography #Bird #Birds #BirdPhotography #PhylloscopusCollybita #CommonChiffchaff

Perché sur une petite branche de buddleia, un pouillot véloce vous regarde au travers du feuillage automnal et des fleurs sèches. Son corps vous fait face et il tourne la tête vers la gauche pour bien vous regarder, d'un air de dire "pourquoi tu braques ton objectif sur moi?". On voit bien le cercle jaune autour de son œil ainsi que les fines plumes jaunes qui parsèment son ventre beige.

#BirdOfTheDay : Un oiseau avec des rayures #Stripes
Un blongios nain croisé lors d'une promenade en février dernier. On dirait un héron compacté, je l'aime trop.

Un blongios nain (sorte de petit héron) debout sur des roseaux morts flottant sur une eau d'un beau bleu ciel et à effet de miroir. Il est à l'abri sous la branche d'un arbre couché, et sa tête est éclairée par un petit rayon de soleil. L'ambiance est lumineuse et colorée.

I lost a day somewhere and #BirdoftheDay today is actually #Reflections. A few to choose from, but I like the lighting and ripples behind the Snowy Egret, but with calmer water where the reflection is. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin #Photography

A Snowy Egret, walking through calm water, with left yellow foot raised out of the water. Clear reflection, late afternoon sun behind the bird.

An Anna's from the shiny side. #BirdOfTheDay #Reflections 📷🌿🪶

A photo of a male Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna), a very small bird with a long thin beak, pale gray chest and belly, and bright iridescent reddish-purple head and throat. It is perched on a black cable with green foliage in the background behind it. Its face is turned toward the camera, displaying maximum reflective shininess of its vividly-colored face and neck feathers.

a black backed stilt - bird with long beak, black wings and back, and white body, very long red legs. it is in water and hunting for food, and you can see reflection. there's a small land in the back.

Is it a berry or a nut? #BirdoftheDay is #BerriesandBeaks, but the backup is #Corvid, so either way good with this American Crow getting its beak into something berry-like. #Birds 🪶 #EastCoastKin #Photography
