A juvenile brown headed cowbird is really pissed off that a nearby black throated gray warbler has stolen his prized berry. Madera Canyon, AZ.

A bright red bird with a black face mask in the lower left corner is in profile facing left and looking down toward the ground with its crest raised against a bright blue sky. In the upper right corner a small gray bird with white cheeks and a black cap and chin is in profile facing left and is looking down toward the other bird. It is shaking out its feathers and its wings are blurred and tail feathers are flared.

For the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #oddcouples I have a chestnut-backed chickadee flying to a feeder occupied by a dark-eyed junco and a #crow and a #pigeon squabbling over food. For #Urban I have two crows on a #Seattle streetlight just after sunrise.

A chestnut backed chickadee is flying to a suet feeder that a dark eyed junco is currently occupying. The background is old growth forest. Two black birds on a streetlight against a clear blue sky. One bird is perched, while the other is flying, wings spread wide. Two black birds on a streetlight against a clear blue sky. Both birds are perched. A crow and a pigeon stand on wet pavement, pecking at peanuts. The crow is hunched and cawing, while the pigeon gazes intently at the food.

Mouthing Off

This Cedar Waxwing, a migratory newcomer, tries to bully a female House Finch, one of our birdbath regulars.

A future friendship for this #OddCouple looks doubtful.

From the archives, a Ring-billed Gull hanging out with a group of Royal Terns, Bolivar Flats (TX), December 2024.

A gull hanging out in the midst of a group of eight royal terns. They are all standing in shallow surf with waves coming in in the background. The birds are facing away from the camera, but the gull and four of the terns are looking to their right.

One of these things is not like the other.

Here’s a Common Raven lifting off through falling snow ❄️

A raven is lifting up into the air through falling snow. Tree branches frame the top of the scene. Serene and wintery. The snow-covered ground adds a peaceful tone.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OddCouples, two different birds in one capture. I photographed this kolea (Pacific golden plover) and akekeke (ruddy turnstone) last August soon after they’d made their migration from Alaska. Thanks, @alan678.bsky.social

Hi,
#birdoftheday is #oddCouples

From me a picture puzzle with a great egret an a kingfisher. I didn't see the little orange guy while I was photographing the big one.

Good morning, BlueSky! For today's theme of #BirdoftheDay #OddCouples, I am sharing a ruddy turnstone and a sharp-tailed sandpiper from Keālia Pond, Maui, December 2025. 🪶📷
In the shallow water at the pond's edge, we see two medium size shorebirds. On the left is a ruddy turnstone facing the camera with orange legs and a mottled, black and brown back and collar--over a white chest and abdomen. On the right is a sharp-tailed sandpiper which is in profile. S/he is mostly tan and light brown with a white eyebrow, black beak, and 3 pointy tail feathers showing. The background is flat, light blue waters.

In an urban environment, rust geese and seagulls can be seen standing in the shallow waters of a lake. In the background lies a large fallen tree. Behind it, a cormorant sits on a navigation mark.
