Good Friday morning all. Today's #BirdOfTheDay alt theme, set by @robcrank68.bsky.social, is #coot, so here is a 2026 favourite of this weird #bird, taken in June. I was sitting on the shore of a #pond near my #Calgary 🇨🇦 home and caught some #mother to #child feeding. #photography #nature #wild 🪶

Ah the coot! A bird that manages to look unusual during all stages of its life.

Metallic Starling #LookingDown for #BirdOfTheDay ✨🐦🌟 Their iridescence is created by microscopic feather structures that act like prisms, scattering light into shifting green and purple hues as it moves. 🌈🪶💫 #birds #birdphotography #nature #wildlife

A Metallic Starling with glossy, iridescent green and violet-purple plumage perches downward among lush green leaves. The bird features striking, bright red eyes and a sharp black beak, surrounded by dense foliage and thin vines.

May you bring the attitude and energy of a wren to your challenges this week. In case you’re not familiar, they have huge voices and are opinionated and energetic. In a thoroughly charming way #birds 🌿

Ordinarily, this creek barely covers the rocks on the bed. The tail end of TS Isaias is passing. #birds #waders

An overflowing creek bisects the picture, top to bottom. On the banks are grasses bordered by trees and brush. Midway across the creek a 6 inch branch lies, a Great Blue Heron perched atop closer to the right bank, facing the opposite bank.

A rare Hooded Crow has been seen in our neighborhood off and on over the past few months. Decided to go out today and was able to catch it briefly. #CorpusChristiTx #Birds

Initially seen on the ground, then it perched on a pickup truck, then the rooftop before flying off.

Sound down! I had Merlin app listen to this blue jay as I hadn't heard this vocalization. Merlin said 'Wild Turkey'. Blue jays have advanced vocal learning capabilities & large repertoires, they can produce surprising vocalizations including domestic/wild turkey gobbles & clucks. #birds

What Bird?🦜 @whatbirds.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

What bird is this? 🤔 (See alt text for clue) 🌍 #whatbird | #birdsoftheworld | #birds 🦉

A large bird of prey (1.9–2.4 m / 6.2–7.9 ft wingspan) standing amidst tall green grass. It features a striking white head and breast, a yellow face and beak with a dark hook, and deep chestnut-brown plumage on its body and wings against a softly blurred natural background.

Clue: Known as the "voice of Africa," this majestic raptor is a master angler whose echoing call is a signature sound of Sub-Saharan waterways.

Fun Fact: Their feet are lined with sharp structures called spiricules to help them grip slippery, wriggling fish straight out of the water!

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)
