Okay, one more for #BirdOfTheDay alt theme, #badweather. A Hummingbird, watching the sky and wondering when it is going to stop raining so he can dry off. Is rain bad weather? Like so many things, it all depends . . .

So @atlanticbirding.bsky.social has pronounced today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme as #BlueSkies and the alternate as #BadWeather

I’m going with #SandhillCranes in the rain for an alternate entry. #Birds #Nature #Wildlife #Photography

2 Sandhill cranes on a dirt pile in the rain.

If the rain comes,
They run and hide their heads.

Great egret hiding from the rain by standing in a branch of a green tree. The large white bird with a long neck and long yellow beak is forming a u-shape with its body and head. Trees in the background and green grass in the foreground and streaks of rain coming down.

Blackpool Tower rises above the surrounding seafront buildings under a flat grey sky, with a gull flying across the right side of the tower. The red-brown iron lattice and ornate upper structure stand out against the pale overcast background, with the promenade buildings and a crane below.

Atlantic Birding’s #BirdOfTheDay ALT theme is #BadWeather

Rain, rain, snow. Yeh, such is the life of a group of stoic birds:
Maned Duck
Dusky Moorhen
Dark-eyed Junco

#ECK #birds #birdphotography #birdsofbluesky #wildlife #nature #Photography #Nikon #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBlueSky

Male Maned Duck (Chenonetta jubata) aka Australian Wood Duck contemplates where life went wrong in the rain at Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens, Toowong

Dusky Moorhen (Gallinula tenebrosa) knows where life went wrong and knows it was that bloody Maned Duck's fault, Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens, Toowong

Adult male (slate-coloured) Dark-eyed Junco (Junco hyemalis) in a snow storm thinks those other two pussies don't know what life going wrong even remotely looks like at Fletcher Wildlife Garden, Ottawa, Canada
