A pair of swans in high seas. The reason I know they're a pair is that they had two half-grown cygnets with them. However the shots with the cygnets did not satisfy my aesthetic sensibilities. Attaching one as evidence for my claim :)

A pair of Great Crested Grebes on the water, one has two grebettes on its back; the other is offering them a quite large fish.
The birds are near the foreground of the shot, the one carrying the grebettes is on the left looking right and the one with the fish is on the right, facing left.
Both birds have a dark double crest on their heads and a chestnut/black collar on their necks. They have white cheeks and a long, slender bill. The neck is long and dark at the back and light at the front. The body is dark brown with a pale front. The Grebettes are black and white in a streaking pattern, giving them the name ‘Humbugs’
The bird on the right is offering a fish twice the size of the chicks heads.
The rest of the shot is of lake water littered with different kinds of low growing pond weed which breaks up the surface of the water.

#BirdOfTheDay today is #Mamas&Papas. Spotted this mated pair of #HouseFinches in western Nebraska a while back.

A pair of house finches is sitting on evergreen boughs of a spruce tree. The female has light gray and white vertical stripes running down her breast. The male has hints of red on his head and neck, with slight touches on his tail feathers. They are both looking off to the left.
