The Black Oystercatcher has a glorious bill and a keen yellow eye so fits both prompts for #BirdOfTheDay #BestBeaks #YellowElements #ECK #Birds

A Black Oystercatcher balancing on one leg, standing on a rough grey rock. Its body is facing the left frame, with its head turned to the right. Its long, glorious, red-orange bill is open with the mandibular portion resting alongside its neck and breast. Rough grey rock in background, a mix of light and shadow.

A bill with a built-in sunrise. 😃

Helen’s pick for #BirdOfTheDay is #BestBeaks #Birds #ECK #CommonGallinule

Close-up of a common gallinule at the water’s edge, its dark charcoal-gray head and neck bent downward as it drinks. Its long, pointed beak is vivid red near the face, fading through orange to a bright yellow tip touching the water. A small red ring surrounds its eye. The bird’s beak and head are reflected in the calm blue-gray water, broken by gentle ripples.

The image shows a striking, close-up profile portrait of a bald eagle, capturing its head and upper shoulders as it looks towards the right. The photograph highlights several key features: The eagle features its iconic, brilliant white plumage covering its entire head and neck. The feathers appear crisp and finely textured. Below the neckline, the dark brown plumage of its body begins to show. It has a powerful, bright yellow hooked beak that transitions into a pale yellow cere near its face. Its sharp, piercing eye has a light yellow iris and a dark pupil, giving the bird an intense and alert expression. Soft sunlight filters from above, casting gentle shadows across the top of its white head. The background consists of a dark, heavily blurred texture with dappled light bokeh, keeping the absolute focus on the details of the bird.

Goodmorning!
For Helen's #BestBeaks it has to be a spoonbill, one of my favorite birds.

Channel-billed Cuckoo - as seen in western Brisbane.
These are migratory and arrive in Oz in September and leave in April.

Good morning 👋

Eurasian curlew foraging in a harvested stubble field. That long, downward-curved bill is always such a distinctive and striking sight. Love their call too.

#BestBeaks #BirdOfTheDay #BirdsOfBluesky #Birding #WildlifePhotography @yorkswildlife.bsky.social 🪶📷

A Eurasian curlew, walks through a golden-brown field of harvested agricultural stubble. The bird has mottled brown and beige feathers, a pale eye stripe, and a very long, slender bill that curves dramatically downward toward the ground. In the background, a lush green hedge borders the top of the field under bright daylight.

Hornbill in Kenya fits the...bill. Should see a few of these guys/gals today! #BirdOfTheDay #BestBeaks #YellowElements

📷🌿🪶

A photo of a yellow-billed hornbill (Tockus flavirostris) perched on a slender horizonal tree branch holding a bright green praying mantis in its large bill. It's a medium-sized black and white hornbill with spotted upper wings, a long black tail, and a long, thick yellow-orange downcurving beak with a black stripe through the center of it. It has pale yellow irises and black and white streaking on its head. There are green leafy branches in the foreground, and it's backlit by warm-hued sunlight with a pale blue clear sky in the background behind it.

#ECK #birds #photography #birdsofbluesky

A Pink-Backed Pelican standing on a rock in an artificial pond, facing the camera. The bird is left of centre of frame and is facing the camera with its head turned to the left so that its left side is visible. It has a long, yellowish bill, which is tucked into its body and pointing downward, slightly open. The plumage on its head and back are a light grey and its underbelly is white. It has a white crest on the top of its head which is drooping behind its eye. It has pink, webbed feet with prominent nails at the end of the toes. The rock is a light sand colour, washed from past bird droppings. The water around it has a green tinge and there is an artificial, concrete bank behind it with three shallow channels scored across it parallel with the water line. The background is a wall of boulders in shadow.
