Seen plenty of Crimson-rumped Waxbills at Abu Simbel these past couple of days. Grossly lightened this pic to get the detail and what a stunner! Only officially discovered in May 2025 in this far flung corner of the Western Palearctic. #birds #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birding

Biologists have recorded the worst osprey breeding season they have ever documented in the Chesapeake Bay. Commercial harvesting and changing water conditions may explain the disappearance of a fish called menhaden, which is ospreys' principal prey. wapo.st/4rNeeWv

Ospreys in the Chesapeake Bay are struggling to feed their chicks. Nesting success is at its lowest level ever recorded due to a shortage of menhaden. The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) is considering changes to how menhaden are harvested. Take Action: abcbirds.info/4dSwgRg

A yellow-headed blackbird prepares to land on last year’s cattails at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the blackbird fills the frame facing the camera, its wings raised behind it, tail fanned wide, and claws extended forward to grasp the reeds below. The background is a sea of softly blurred cattail reeds in warm earth-tone colors. A striking action portrait capturing the precision and agility of the bird in flight.

#WonderfulBirdWednesday Right in the middle of rain, the photo was captured the split second a droplet of water landed on the #Robins head like a crown! 👑 04/2026 #Birds #Nature #FlawlessTiming 🌟 #FMSPAD #SomethingThatFlies #Birdsky #Wildlife #Photography #BirdPhotography #Macrophotography

A color, macrophoto of a Robin perched on a branch in Virginia, during late April, 2026. The capture was taken during rain and the photographer snapped the photo at the split second a raindrop fell on the top of the bird's head, making it appear like a "natural" crown.

Say "Hello" to Olivier The Northern Hawk Owl. Very elusive, he spends most of his time, in the Boreal Forests of the Great White North. One of the most incredible hunters that I have ever witnessed.🦉 #NorthernHawkOwl #Birds #Owls #Photography #BirdPhotography #Wildlife #Sony #OntarioParks #Canada

The Barred Owl of Central Park likely is young, hatched this year, now wandering in search of its own territory. It moved several times during the day, including just after this evening photo when a Cooper's Hawk confronted it. 🦉 🧡

A few still around, at least two juvenile Black-chinned Hummingbirds still coming to the garden. For all migrating birds, it’s important to add weight before undertaking a journey.

A Snowy Egret (Egretta thula) in breeding plumage is the #BirdoftheDay for the theme #ItsAllWhite. Easy to see why these stunning birds were hunted for their beautiful feathers years ago until they were protected in the early 20th century. #birds #Florida

A dramatically side-and back-lit Snowy Egret in breeding plumage is perched atop a rough gray snag facing forward and looking slightly downward, showing off an impressive crown of delicate white feathers over their head, and looking fierce with yellow eyes, red lores, and black beak. The background is completely black. Easy to see why they were hunted for their feathers until they were protected in the early twentieth century.

🪶 Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Woodland; any bird in a forest setting, says @atlanticbirding.bsky.social. The yellow-billed cuckoo is an often-heard, but seldom-seen one around my area. This one came out into plain view. #birds #photography

A bird on a bare branch with lots of green in the background. The bird is facing to the right of camera. It has a white throat and breast, with brown elsewhere, and a yellow bill. The tail is a bit long.
