Thanks @alan678.bsky.social for #BirdoftheDay theme #ArtofMotion A different type of content for me, #BridledTern a vagrant here in MA, belongs south of Florida in the tropics. A very unusual experience, but really beautiful human connection.

@robcrank68.bsky.social thanks for the #birdoftheday theme #orange continuing with the #AtlanticPuffin they shed their beaks and grow their beaks just for mating, the bigger the beak the more fish a puffin can grab. They shed them to help with flying for migration!

Em @rippem.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

Thanks @robcrank68.bsky.social for the #BirdOftheDay theme #Orange, which works out perfectly from my BOTD hiatus, Twas out on an adventure of birding to see the #AtlanticPuffin on Seal Island in Maine, the only place you can see this bird in America! And just for breeding season.
