Helen Bennett’s #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme: #AwkwardAvian. (Since the main theme is #BokehBirds I think this is a twofer.)

Here's a mourning dove struggling to get a footing on the seed bell in my Mom's yard.

A mourning dove is shown attempting to land on a seed bell that doesn't offer a good perch. The bird is facing away from the camera with its wings open and raised and its tail spread, it's body nearly blocking the seed bell, which is suspended from an iron loop by a yellow mini-bungee. The bird's foot is extended, toes spread, and trying to make contact with the top of the bell. The background is out-of-focus green bushes.

Atlantic Birding’s #BirdOfTheDay Alt. theme is #Airborne; any bird in flight.

Here's a mamma mallard coming in for a landing on Lake Terra. Also, possibly posing for the Iowa Duck Stamp.

Atlantic Birding’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Seabirds; any bird found at sea or the coast.

Here's my encounter with a seagull on Race Point Beach on Cape Cod.

Seagull shown heading directly at the camera with its wings spread diagonally across the frame. The bird's head is aligned with the ground rather than its wings. The wing tops, just barely visible, are gray and black while the head is gray and white.

A non macro wasp for #Saturday
I had the #RF100-400 lens on when I happened upon this over active plant with all the bee's and wasps on it. No macro lens today so a extreme closeup will have to do for today. 🫤

Rob's @robcrank68.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #Green, photos with Green in the backgrounds not on the birds.
Definitely have some green in the background of this #MourningDove. I've always wondered why these guys are so sad. 😢😂

Rob Crank says today's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #Green, photos with Green in the backgrounds not on the birds.

Here's a house sparrow in flight with (what else?) the greenbelt as a backdrop.

Rob Crank says today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Pairs, photos with pairs of the same species in them.

Here's a couple of juvenile herring gulls about to get into it over a crab the one in the lower left has caught.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #Brown, birds with Brown in their plumage.

Here's what my wife calls a "glamor shot" of a juvenile Canada Goose, taken at Boston Public Garden last week.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Borbs, birds looking plump.

Here's a rotund-looking pigeon up to something with another rather rotund-looking pigeon.

A large pigeon standing on the gangplank of a boat pecks at the neck of another pigeon sitting a little to its left. both birds have large, rounded bodies and feathers that are a mix of gray and iridescent.

Helen Bennetts #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme: #BirdStare.

Here's a juvenile red-tailed hawk proving once again that you haven't really been stared down until you've been stared down by a raptor.

#photography #birdphoto #wildlife #ECK #hawks #RedTailedHawk

Close-up of the head of a juvenile red-tailed hawk. The hawk's head and upper body enter the from from the lower left corner, giving the whole image a slight tilt. The bird's head is turned toward the camera, showing the amber-colored right eye and highlighting its hooked gray beak, with yellow back toward the nostrils. It has brown and cream feathers over its head, and mostly cream on its breast and chin.

Helen Bennett says: Let’s celebrate #TheDivers for #BirdOfTheDay today.

Here's a hard-working double-crested cormorant skimming waters off the Rhode Island coast.

A double-crested cormorant, a black bird with a sharp yellow beak, skims over gently rolling water, which forms the background. The bird's feathers are messy and askew, and there is a large splash in the water behind it.
