I guess I get a two for one deal today. @atlanticbirding.bsky.social ‘s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Seabirds with the alt theme #Airborne. These were taken on our recent trip to Haida Gwaii . Google had various identities for these gulls.

A great black-backed gull hovers on the wind before landing on the rock below. It’s a #BirdOfTheDay twofer - one of the #Seabirds #Airborne for the alt. Thanks to Atlantic Birding for the themes!

For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #Seabirds, here's an Arctic Tern resting on a mound of snow on one of the many islands of the #Svalbard Archipelago. #birds #BirdPhotography #WildlifePhotography #TravelPhotography #Norway

Inspired by @froure.bsky.social, I'm going with an American Oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) as well for today's #BirdOfTheDay #Seabirds. This one is nesting on a wharf on the Chesapeake Bay.

Among the #Seabirds tailing our whale-watching boat out of Isafordur, Iceland, was this #Airborne Northern Fulmar.

They resemble Herring Gulls but feature odd-looking nasal tubes on the top of their beaks.

I've always had a smile when I see this shot of a semipalmated plover on a Cape May beach.

For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme #Seabirds, I just encountered this juvenile gull (possibly Herring?) on my way to the library. I stopped to take some photos and it stopped to check whether my fingers seemed edible :)
