🪶 Good Morning and Happy Monday Everyone! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #GoldenSun; any bird in warm, golden sunshine Alt. is #FemmeFatale; any female bird - A winter male Common Reed Bunting in a tree in the sunshine #ECK #birdphotography #birdsofbluesky #naturephotography #BlueskyMonday

A winter plumage male Common Reed Bunting perched on a branch in am ash tree in the golden sunshine. The bird is slightly right of centre of the shot, facing the camera with its head turned slightly to the left so that its front and the left side of its face are visible.
The bird has a brown head, with a white eyebrow streak and moustache, it has dark eyes and a short, sturdy beak. The hint of its summer black bib is visible on the chest, its flanks are whitish with brazen streaks, turning to shite in the underbelly. Its pale legs are visible; as is the tail, which is pale underneath and has a distinctive fork.
The bird is perched on a thin branch that travels diagonally front he bottom right of the frame up towards the top left corner. A larger branch comes from the bottom left diagonally to the top centre, with a fork that goes to the top left. There are a number of smaller branches int he foreground, to the left and right, which end in large black buds. The golden sunshine is coming from the right and illuminating the bird and the branches in a warm light. The background is a mass of crossing branches, all lit up by the sunshine, against a clear blue sky

We’re getting into the Halloween spirit for #BirdOfTheDay with the theme #FrightfulFeathers - any eerie, mysterious, or spooky birds! 🦉👻 Here's a lovely Barn Owl, not scary but commonly known as the Ghost Owl! 🤍 Alt: #MostSeen - the birds you see most often! Happy Friday! 🕊️👋 #Birds #Owls #ECK

This close-up portrait photograph of a Barn Owl seen perched on a textured tree branch resting while out hunting over farmland at dusk. The owl has a distinct, bright white, heart-shaped facial disc framed by large, dark, ink-black eyes and a small beak. Its soft, fluffy chest plumage is a stark white, while its back and wings display a rich pattern of tan, gold, and gray feathers mottled with small dark spots.
Throughout history, the Barn Owl has earned eerie nicknames like "ghost owl" and "graveyard owl" due to it looking like a pale, floating apparition gliding, completely silent as it hunts in low light. The barn owl also emits a piercing, unearthly screech instead of an owl like hoot!

A female American goldfinch perches on a rock above St. Vrain Creek in Longmont, Colorado.

In this vertical color photograph, the goldfinch stands on a sloping gray granite rock with its back toward the camera and its head turned to the right. The softly blurred background features additional gray granite rocks across the upper half and middle left of the frame, while a large red sandstone rock adds a contrasting splash of color on the middle right.

A beautiful portrait of a female American goldfinch in the rocky riparian habitat of St. Vrain Creek, an ecosystem vital to local wildlife.

🪶 Good Morning and Happy Thursday Everyone! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Yellow; any bird with yellow plumage Alt. is #Red; any bird with red plumage - A tiny Goldcrest perched in the sunshine #ECK #birdphotography #birdsofbluesky #naturephotography #ColorADay #YellowThu

A Goldcrest perched on a branch in the bright sunshine. The tiny bird is centre of frame and facing the camera, its yellow crown stripe is visible; bordered by black stripes at either side. It has a long, thin beak and dark eyes. Its face is whitish and head and upper parts are olive-green. Its chest and side are grey-green, turning to whitish underneath. Its legs and feet are a fleshy brown.
The bird is perched on a branch running parallel along the bottom of the shot; which itself comes from another branch emerging from the bottom corner of the shots and running diagonally, behind the bird towards the top left hand corner. Three smaller branches (twigs) are jutting out of the left hand side. The sunshine is coming from the left and lighting up the bird and branches in bright yellow sunlight.
The background is out of focus greens and yellows of the forest, lit up by sunlight.

Bird's eye view of a #WeeBee at work. Even the rain can't stop these industrious insects. #Insects #Bees #Pollinators #Stunday #ColorADay #OrangeSun #PurpleFri #Bloomscrolling #EastCoastKin #PhotographersOfBluesky #iPhonePhotography

The fuzzy orange and black coat of a Buff-tailed Bumblebee glistens with raindrops from the purple Salvia that it is nectaring, while its veined, translucent wings are folded neatly together. Legs, head and antennae are hidden from view beneath the bee's body. A small raindrop sits on the flower to the right.
Camera: iPhone 15 Pro.
