Oh! Wow! What a shot! I get excited when I capture a raptor hunting; I've never got one actually *catching* something. And for it to be in focus, with fabulous lighting- just ... wow!

The head and neck don't always agree on the fastest route to the desired destination, but eventually they get there.

A very large white bird's body faces the camera while standing in gently rippling greenish water. Its long fluffy neck is angled back over its back while also twisting down on the left side of the frame where its head with an open orange beak with black skin at its base hovers just over the water and its faint reflection.

My #BirdOfTheDay looking up is a Nuthatch taken from the hide at Blashford Lakes. Anyone who's been there will know how hard it is to get the only seat with a window that opens #p1000 #birds #dorsetwildlife #birdphotography

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme by @atlanticbirding.bsky.social
is #LookingDown.
I think I've posted this Northern Yellow Warbler scoping out a ladybug before, but it fits for today. #BirdsOfFrontRange #becurious

A small yellow bird with dark stripes on its chest perches on a thin twig. It is set against leaves and a blue sky. Its head is hanging over the branch, looking down at a ladybug on a leaf beneath it.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LookingDown. This #WhiteBreastedNuthatch is taking a casual stroll down a tree trunk, and for once, it's actually looking where it's going.

A White-breasted Nuthatch, a small bird with a dark grey back, a black hood, a white face and breast, and a red tush, walks down a tree trunk as autumn colours glow behind it.

#LookingDown is the #BirdoftheDay theme, with an alt of #LookingUp. Terns are a good subject for looking down as they soar over the Bay and Harbour - an🪶 Elegant Tern looking down on the turn as it spies food. They have been very vocal this year and sure I've seen more than last year. #Birds #eck

An Elegant Tern (Thalasseus elegans) in flight against a clear blue sky in San Rafael, Marin County, California. This species is distinguished from the similar Caspian Tern (Hydroprogne caspia) by its slimmer, more slender orange-yellow bill and more graceful, buoyant flight pattern.

A bald eagle looks down while perched in a dead snag above St. Vrain Creek in Longmont, Colorado.

In this vertical color photograph, a bald eagle is viewed from below, facing the camera with its head turned to its right, revealing its left profile as it gazes downward. The dead branch on which it perches enters the frame from the lower left and extends diagonally toward the center right. Several smaller branches angle downward and extend beyond the frame. The overcast sky creates a soft gray background, emphasizing the eagle’s distinctive features and commanding presence.

A beautiful portrait of a bald eagle in the riparian habitat so vital to its survival.

A Black-throated Blue Warbler (Setophaga caerulescens) male is #LookingDown before he heads to the pond in the #backyard for #BirdoftheDay. #birds #migration #Florida

A Black-throated Blue Warbler male is angled head down, tail up, with his back to the viewer, on a thin branch right before he takes off. He is dark blue from top of head to tail, with a black face, eye, and bill, and small white patches on either side of the wings. Slight slivers of white can also be seen on each side of his tail. The background is varying shades of rich greens, and there are some brighter green maidenhair fern fronds in the foreground to the lower left in this horizontal frame.

My candidate for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #lookingdown is this gorgeous juvenile common buzzard, at Watlington Hill in early September. One of its parents was nearby, supervising, whilst it checked me out from above. 🦅😍 #birds #birdphotography
