We turkey vultures perch where we want to and draw a distinction between stumps and branches. If you feel tempted to argue with me about this, I urge you to keep your thoughts to yourself. #BirdOfTheDay #Perched #TurkeyVultures #PNW

I'd blend right into the background if it weren't for this ridiculous red cap I'm forced to wear. #BirdOfTheDay #Redheads #HairyWoodpecker #PNW

Although to my eye these legs appear to be the perfect size for my body, I will begrudgingly concede that some might feel they are too long--but only because I crave the spotlight and enjoy being featured on BlueSky. #BirdOfTheDay #BirdyLongLegs #WoodStork #OatlandIslandWildlifeCenter #Georgia

I see a little silhouetto of a crow. Scaramouche, scaramouche, will you do the fandango? #BirdOfTheDay #Silhouette #AmericanCrow #BackyardBirds #PNW #Queen

I'm well known for my impression of a black hole. (There may have been a little cropping here in the editing booth.) #BirdOfTheDay #BirdsInAbstract #CaliforniaScrubJay #BackyardBirds #PNW

Even poorly lit and high up in a tree, it's impossible to argue that I am not one of nature's most beautiful creations. #BirdOfTheDay #Contrast #NorthernFlicker #BackyardBirds #PNW

Personally, I welcome all Canadians, although I'm particularly fond of the feathered variety. The Americans who speak unkindly of our northern neighbors are just loud and rude--they don't represent most of us. Apologies. #BirdOfTheDay #BirdsOfAFeather #CanadaGoose #CacklingGoose #PNW #OhCanada

The latest ten--some silly stuff, some stuff I won't think of again, and some great stuff that will live with me for a long time (looking at you, Bourdain Reader and Everything Was Beautiful). #ILoveToRead #SupportIndependentBookstores #BookSky #BooksOfBlueSky

I didn't know @oldmanrambling.bsky.social's lovely Janet, but thanks to @alan678.bsky.social, I think of her every time I see a robin. ❤️ #ForJanet #AmericanRobin #BackyardBirds #PNW

We've lost a national treasure, but I hope they're together again.

Literally the most recent photo of one of the birds who frequents my garden. As you can see, I make them work for those peanuts--no such thing as a free lunch! #BirdOfTheDay #RecentGardenBirds #CaliforniaScrubJay #BackyardBirds #PNW

I refuse to be limited to just one theme--so I am striking a pose whilst surrounding myself with a circle for maximum dramatic effect. #BirdOfTheDay #StrikeAPose #CirclesAndSpheres #CaliforniaScrubJay #BackyardBirds #PNW

There's always the one child who moves at just the wrong time and ends up blurry in the family photo. (Honestly? We're not even sure that one's related.) #BirdOfTheDay #Ducklings #PacificBlackDuck #Richmond #Tasmania #Australia

If by "complement(s) the bird" @alan678.bsky.social means "hides in plain sight," I believe I've fulfilled the brief. #BirdofTheDay #ASplashofColour ##SpottedTowhee #PNW

Finally, not having that ridiculous scarlet hood sported by the males of my species has paid off. #BirdOfTheDay #RedOrDead #AnnasHummingbird #BackyardBirds #PNW

Just as I framed a shot this morning of a crow perched atop a tree against the clear blue sky, my dog decided enough with the dilly-dallying, yanked his lead, and the shot was lost. Would have been my #LastBird, but instead I give you this #BewicksWren from Monday. #BirdOfTheDay #DogShenanigans

If only you could hear me and my glorious song, you would forgive the photographer this substandard image. #BirdOfTheDay #Yellow #WesternMeadowlark #AnkenyNationalWildlifeRefuge #PNW

On second thought, perhaps flying into the house wasn't the best idea I ever had, but I do look rather lovely against the surface of the human's stairs. #BirdOfTheDay #TantalisingTextures #CaliforniaScrubJay #BackyardBirds #PNW #LiveAndLearn

Now that Mt. Olive withdrew from the man baby's fair because the privately sponsored North Carolina booth contained a Confederate flag, I'd like to offer evidence from my refrigerator that they have been, are, and will continue to be my Pickle of Choice. #MtOlivePickles #Antiracist #FightHatred

What's better than a giant bird perched precariously at the top of a tree? #BirdOfTheDay #BestOfJune #WoodStork #OatlandIsland #Georgia

It was a cold November and I was not as sleek as usual. If you're going to mock a fellow for trying to stay warm, that's on you. #BirdOfTheDay #Rotund #AnnasHummingbird #BackyardBirds #PNW
