Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OddCouples , two different birds in one capture, the alt is #Urban , birds in an urban environment. Good luck and have a great day. 😊 #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
A grey heron stands upright on a dark harbour rail in warm light, its long neck relaxed and yellow eye alert. Behind it, softly out of focus, a small gull perches on the pointed top of a white navigation marker, creating a layered composition with the heron sharp in the foreground and the gull blurred against a smooth brown background.

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.

Good morning. Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said “ today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StareDown, birds looking right at you, the Alt theme is #Gulls, any Gull will do.” As I was photographing Black Headed Gulls yesterday I’ll go with another for those shots. #birds #photography #EastCoastKin
A black-headed gull flies low over calm blue water, wings fully spread and angled upward as it lifts off. Its white body and pale grey wings catch the sunlight, with black tips visible along the outer feathers. The bird’s red bill and red legs stand out sharply, while droplets of water trail behind where its feet have just pushed off the surface. Below, gentle ripples reflect the gull’s shape in soft, wavering patterns, emphasizing the motion and grace of its takeoff.

Silhouettes of crows perched on a railing above a sea of clouds, with a clear blue sky in the background. Snow-capped mountains are faintly visible in the distance. A woodpecker perched on a branch, showcasing a black and white patterned body with a red underbelly. The background features blurred foliage and twigs.
