Is this the #BestBeaks of all #BirdOfTheDay? Maybe not, but it is beautiful.

Here's a Four-year-old Gannet for #EFG. Note the classic piano key feathers showing this dude is not old enough to drink yet. Who knew my Saturday trip to @rspb.bsky.social Bempton Cliffs was going to be so useful for #BirdOfTheDay.

Gannet flying above the ocean. He has black strips on the back of his wings showing he isn't quite mature yet.

Tons, but I think they’d all be disappointed. It’s hard enough to avoid projecting your own regrets on a kid with only half your genes. That poor child wouldn’t stand of chance.

Nothing to see here folks. Move along, move along. #ODG #BirdOfTheDay

I love the brokenness of the fence line and the way the birds are looking different directions. Great composition.

Bold, beautiful Bertie. What a great photo.

Yes! I just bought my first DSLR camera and I’m thrilled with my ineptness in a sea of possibilities. Creativity and the journey from total incompetence to slightly skilled makes life worth living.

I guess that's enough yelling online for a Saturday, here's a meme. I'm going go gambol in the fields and frolic in the buttercups or some shit.

My personal fav #BestOfTheMonth is this fluffy young swan I took on Aug 1. I like the wispy feathers and the light on the water. #BirdOfTheDay

For today’s #BirdOfTheDay let’s go with both #Coastal&River and #Rocky with these Farne Island beauties.

Okay, American in the UK. On my iPad (US App and Store but on a local router Wi-Fi) it says only gulf of America. On my iPhone (uk SIM card but also US App Store) it has Gulf of Mexico with gulf of America in paranthesis

Nothing beats a deep dive into some professor’s passion project. Those are the courses I remember years later.

I sadly have nothing in my rolls for #BirdOfTheDay today, but I finally joined @rspb.bsky.social this weekend so here’s to many more lovely outings and bird photos in my future.
