Towhee Karaoke This little buddy was belting it out in the community garden near me. #BirdOfTheDay #crooners #ColorADay #YellowThu #EastCoastKin #ECK #PhotographersUnited #photography #birds #ArtYear
A California towhee singing on an old wooden fence. It's facing right with its head turned back toward the camera. The bird is mostly tan with charcoal wings and tail. It has brown eyes. The background is blurred green leaves mixed with gray from a building and yellow from the sun. There's a sprig of green leaves on the right side in focus.

Beach geometry. High-angle view of Santa Marta at golden hour. Parallel diagonal rows of blue canopy tents cross the pale sand beside calm silvery water, and palms line the promenade, documenting coastal daily life from above #luiscordobapharchive #caribbean #santamarta #scape #beach
Horizontal orientation high-angle photograph of a Caribbean beach in Santa Marta, Colombia, seen from a tall building at golden hour. Long diagonal rows of bright royal-blue canopy tents with white plastic chairs run in parallel lines across a wide stretch of pale sand. In the upper right, calm sea water carries soft gold and silver reflections, with small waves breaking along the shoreline where swimmers and bathers wade. People are scattered across the sand, and a blue walkway crosses the beach on the left. Palm trees line the promenade at the left edge, next to the corner of a purple building. Warm, soft light emphasizes the repeating geometry of the tents against the natural textures of sand and water. Optimized for Santa Marta aerial beach photography, Caribbean coast tourism, geometric beach patterns, and Colombian coastal daily life indexing.

#Birds Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social says today's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #Eating, birds with food in their beaks. A Great Blue Heron with its latest catch. This bird was quite a successful fisherman, when it was snapping at dragonflies.
A dark grey coloured bird with a large pointed beak, holds a small fish in the tip. The bird's neck is bent in an S shape, its beak pointing downwards.

Billy's breath went in and out, in and out, with a long soft catch at the top. She had learned to count the space between them: four, five, six. When the space lengthened she would lean forward, and when it closed she would lean back. #excerpt
