Good morning! Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BokehBirds - any bird captured with a soft, muted or blurry background, like this lovely Long-Tailed Tit. Bonus points for any bokeh balls! ☺️🪶📷️ Alt: #AwkwardAvian - any bird captured in a silly, clumsy or strange position! Happy Monday everyone! 🕊️ 👋

A photograph of a long-tailed tit a small, round bird facing towards the right. The bird has a fluffy white head and chest, accented by a broad, dark black stripe that runs over the top of its head from its bill to its back. A hint of soft pink coloration tints its flanks and shoulders. Its bill is tiny and dark, and its eye is framed by a faint yellowish ring. The bird is nestled among several bare, light grey tree branches that cut diagonally across the scene the one above slightly shadowing its head. Two prominent branches cross behind and below the bird, while a softer, out-of-focus branch arches over the top left corner of the frame. The background is a soft, blurred wash of light blue, lilac and pale buff coloured bokeh, with some bokeh balls from the bright, open sky filtering sunlight through the woodland canopy.

🪶 Good Morning Everybody and Happy Sunday! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Seabirds; any bird found at sea or the coast Alt. is #Airborne; any bird in flight. - A Northern Gannet in flight #birds #ECK #birdphotography #birdsofbluesky #naturephotography #SuperSeaBirdSunday #Stunday

A Nothern Gannet in flight across the sky. The bird is centre of the shot, to the right slightly and flying from right to left.
It has a long pointed bill which is blue-grey in colour. Its black skin can be seen around the bill and eye. It has a yellowish colouration around the head and neck and a snowy white body. The outer half of its wings, which are in a downbeat, are black.
The sky is a blend of blue and white, out of focus and featureless

Another great corvid, the Green Jay. This is the Colombian version of the bird (Inca subspecies), that I photographed at La Minga Ecolodge near Cali. Such characters! #Colombia #birds #nature #corvids

A striking bird with a bright yellow belly, green back, and vivid blue facial markings perches on a branch, gripping it with strong gray feet and tilting its head inquisitively.

🪶 Good Morning Everybody, Happy Wednesday Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Raptors; any bird of prey Alt. is #Corvids; any member of the crow family. - A Buzzard on a dead tree in the rain - A curious Eurasian Jay in close up #birds #ECK #birdphotography #naturephotography #birdsofbluesky

A Common Buzzard perched on a dead tree in the pouring rain. The bird is right of centre of the shot, with its back turned to the camera but its head turned around to stare at it.
The bird has a brown head, paler around the bill, which is black and hooked. It has a yellow cere above the beak. Its back is a lightly mottled brown, darker as it gets to the tail.
The tree is fully dead with patches of bark missing along the trunk and branches. The trunk travels up along the right hand side of the frame and a horizontal branch, with multiple side branches, holds the buzzard. Another, smaller branch is jutting out above it.
The rain is heavy and large drops can be seen throughout the shot. It gives the shot a hazy appearance. The background is an out of focus wall of trees leaves.

A Eurasian Jay in close up perched at the top of a small bush. The bird is centre of the shot, facing left so that it’s left side is visible.
It has its head raised in an alert pose and is glancing at the camera slightly. It has a thick black bill, white throat and crown, which is streaked with black and a prominent black steak from its beak to its shoulder. Its plumage is pinkish, with bright blue and white barring on the wing coverts, turning to black and white behind it.
Some barely visible, out of focus vegetation in the foreground gives a hazy effect to the birds feet and tail. It is perched on a bare branch, just visible at the bottom of the shot, which has a spur travelling upwards behind the bird to the right. A bush with small, oval green leaves is in the bottom left and the background is a white sky with some out of focus branches visible throughout.

Hi birders, I’m not about. Over in England visiting my daughter. I’m sorry I can’t respond to comments as I’ll be offline. The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ODG, any Owl, Duck or Goose. No alt. Have a lovely day. “ I have my eye on you.” Snowy Owl #birds #photography #ECK

A striking close-up portrait of a snowy owl, showing its brilliant golden eye, dark curved beak and fine white facial feathers. Subtle dark markings are visible across the crown and shoulder, with the bird’s intense gaze dominating the image.
