🪶 Helen has chosen #TheDivers as today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme; any diving bird Alternative is #BirdStare, any bird captured staring right at you! A Great Crested Grebe on the lake with a chick on its back #birdphotography #ECK #birds #photography #birdsofbluesky #naturephotography
A Great Crested Grebe floating on the surface of a lake with a young chick on its back. The bird is right of centre of the shot, facing left so its right side is visible. 
The bird has a long, sharp, grey beak. It has a white face with a black double crest on its head and an orange and black ruff on its neck. Its long neck is white at the throat and dark brown at the back. It has a dark brown back. 
The chick is sitting between its wings with its head and neck showing, its plumage is an off white with striking black stripes running from the head down the body, giving it its nickname of “Humbug”
The bird is floating on calm water with part of its reflection visible in front of it. The background is lake water littered with small growths of vegetation and a single white feather can be seen just in front of the bird.

🪶 Good Morning Everybody, Happy Wednesday Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Raptors; any bird of prey Alt. is #Corvids; any member of the crow family. - A Buzzard on a dead tree in the rain - A curious Eurasian Jay in close up #birds #ECK #birdphotography #naturephotography #birdsofbluesky
A Common Buzzard perched on a dead tree in the pouring rain. The bird is right of centre of the shot, with its back turned to the camera but its head turned around to stare at it. 
The bird has a brown head, paler around the bill, which is black and hooked. It has a yellow cere above the beak. Its back is a lightly mottled brown, darker as it gets to the tail. 
The tree is fully dead with patches of bark missing along the trunk and branches. The trunk travels up along the right hand side of the frame and a horizontal branch, with multiple side branches, holds the buzzard. Another, smaller branch is jutting out above it. 
The rain is heavy and large drops can be seen throughout the shot. It gives the shot a hazy appearance. The background is an out of focus wall of trees leaves. A Eurasian Jay in close up perched at the top of a small bush. The bird is centre of the shot, facing left so that it’s left side is visible. 
It has its head raised in an alert pose and is glancing at the camera slightly. It has a thick black bill, white throat and crown, which is streaked with black and a prominent black steak from its beak to its shoulder. Its plumage is pinkish, with bright blue and white barring on the wing coverts, turning to black and white behind it. 
Some barely visible, out of focus vegetation in the foreground gives a hazy effect to the birds feet and tail. It is perched on a bare branch, just visible at the bottom of the shot, which has a spur travelling upwards behind the bird to the right. A bush with small, oval green leaves is in the bottom left and the background is a white sky with some out of focus branches visible throughout.

A male house finch for today's #BirdOfTheDay #RedHead per @robcrank68.bsky.social. #Birds #nature #Photography
A male house finch is perched on a small branch in the apple trees. Male house finches are small, colorful songbirds commonly found across North America. They are easily distinguished from females by their bright red, orange, or yellow plumage, which covers the head, chest, and sometimes rump. These vibrant colors are influenced by diet and are used to attract mates.

Autumn is a time for berries so today's #BirdOfTheDay is #BirdsWithBerries Any bird captured with berries, like this beautiful Bohemian waxwing 📷️ 🪶 ❤️ Alt: #BirdyLongLegs Any bird with legs that look way too long for its body! I'm heading out shortly but I will catch up later. Happy Wednesday! 😊👋
A photograph of a Bohemian waxwing bird perched amidst a dense thicket of cotoneaster branches heavily laden with clusters of vibrant red berries. The bird is positioned near the centre of the frame, facing right as viewed, and has just eaten a berry. Its smooth, greyish pinky brown plumage has a soft, almost velvety texture. The waxwing features a prominent, swept-back crest on its head and a distinct, sharp black mask running across its eyes down to a black throat patch. The bird's wings display intricate markings, including a bold black band outlined with bright yellow stripes along the primary feathers. Its short tail ends in a brilliant, crisp yellow band.  The background is a complex network of tangled branches, leaves and berries. While the immediate surrounding branches and bright red berry clusters are sharply in focus, the foreground and background blurs out softly.

🪶 Good Morning, Happy Tuesday Everyone! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Silhoutte; any bird in silhouette Alt. is #Finches; any bird from the finch family - A Tufted Duck heads home across the lake at sunset - A Linnet in song in the sunshine #birds #ECK #birdphotography #naturephotography
A Tufted duck in silhouette, paddling away from the shore at sunset. The bird is in the centre of the shot, paddling away from camera with its head turned back to the camera over its left shoulder. Its reflection can be seen in the water behind it. 
The setting sunlight on the water gives off a metallic gold/bronze effect. In the foreground are vertical reed stems, also in silhouette, coming up a quarter of the frame on the right and about halfway on the left. A Linnet perched on the top of a bramble bush in the sunshine. The bird is left of centre of frame, its right side is visible and its beak is open in song. 
The bramble takes up the bottom third of the shot, mostly fresh green leaves and shoots with the occasional old white branch or fresh flower buds throughout. 
The bird has a grey head and red forehead with a bright red chest. It has a brown back and wings, which turn to black with a white stripe at the end. Its underbelly is pale with brown streaks. 
The bright morning sunshine is shining from the right and casting a warm light on the bird and the brambles. 
The background is of an out of focus field of grass and is a uniform green throughout.

Chicago's corncobs - Marina City, brutalist geometry, rhythm and shadow in B&W. Home to legendary radio station WCFL, "Voice of Labor," 1965-1985. #luiscordobapharchive #Chicago #MarinaCityChicago #ArchitecturePhotography #BrutalistArchitecture #Cityscape #WCFL #ClassicMono #BlackAndWhite
Black and white architectural photograph of the Marina City towers in Chicago, nicknamed "the corncobs" for their distinctive scalloped, cylindrical concrete form designed by architect Bertrand Goldberg. Low-angle view emphasizing the repetitive curved concrete balconies spiraling up the tower. An American flag on a pole is visible to the left. High contrast monochrome composition highlights strong geometric patterns and rhythmic shadow. The commercial building of Marina City was home to legendary Chicago radio station WCFL, "Chicago's Voice of Labor," a 50,000-watt AM station broadcasting on 1000 kHz. WCFL moved into the 16th floor of Marina City's office tower in 1965, switching to a Top 40 format that year to compete directly with rival station WLS, and remained there for the next twenty years until the mid-1980s. The station also maintained a "VIP Room" on the fifth floor where its on-air DJs hosted listener events and record parties. Optimized for Marina City architecture, Bertrand Goldberg brutalism, Chicago radio history, WCFL Voice of Labor, black and white architectural photography, and Chicago skyline landmarks indexing.

Tap into your creative side for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme: #BirdsInAbstract From motion blur, obscure angles, or contrasting textures, anything goes! Show us your interpretation! 😊 Here's my contribution-can you guess who she is? 📷 🪶 It's open house, so no Alt theme today! Happy Saturday🕊️
An abstract close-up photograph emphasising starkly contrasting textures and geometric form rather than the literal identity of the subject. A sharp, wedge-like shape cuts horizontally across the lower half of the frame against a softly blurred, warm tan background. It is slate-grey in colour with subtle, marble-like blue highlights, mimicking the appearance of cast metal or polished stone. The upper portion of the image is dominated by a dense, fibrous texture of warm brown, velvety dense short bristles.  The composition relies entirely on minimalism and form. The overall effect strips away the context of the natural world, transforming an intimate biological detail into a study of line, shape, and surface texture.  This abstract framing also can trick the brain into finding a hidden face within texture and line.  The entire image shifts from a literal biological close-up into a peaceful, minimalist portrait of what could be a sleeping creature!

Morning & Happy Monday Everyone! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Herons&Egrets; any Heron or Egret shot Alt. is #Borbs; any bird that looks round, chubby, spherical etc. - Grey Heron on a riverbank - close up of a large , round Dunnock #birds #ECK #birdphotography #naturephotography
A Grey Heron sitting on a riverbank. The bird is left of centre of frame, looking right so that its right side is visible. 
It hand along, sharp, orange beak, darker on top near the head. I had a white head with a large, dark stripe across the eye, ending is a crest at the back of the head. Its neck is tucked into its body and is a greyish white. Its back and wings are a light grey, with a darker grey at the edges of the wings. Its legs and tail are obscured by a mound of exposed riverbed in the foreground. The background is of the river, which has a brown tinge but is clear enough to see a sandy bottom near the bird, darker elsewhere. A Dunnock taken in close up.  The bird is facing the camera directly and takes up almost the entire height of the shot, the small wooden post it is perched on can just be seen at the bottom of the picture. 
It has a grey head and neck with brown cheek patches. Its sides are brown with black streaks and its chest is grey, turning to white underneath. It is facing the camera directly, so that both eyes can been seen and it has its feathers puffed out to give it a very round appearance. 
The background is an out of focus white, with a dark stripe in the upper left hand corner
