A Eurasian oystercatcher stands in shallow, clear water, its glossy black head and upper body sharply contrasting with its bright white underparts. Its long, vivid orange beak points downward, a droplet of water hanging from the tip. Gentle ripples spread around its partially submerged pink legs, and the bird’s full reflectionβ€”dark head, white belly, and orange beakβ€”is mirrored in the green-tinged water below. The background is softly blurred, emphasizing the bird’s crisp markings and the subtle movement of the water’s surface.

My cohost Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said β€œ today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WaterDroplets, birds with water droplets on them, the Alt theme is #OneLeg, any bird on one leg.” I’m going with a runny nosed Oystercatcher. 😁 #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

From the archives to when I had a camera I could lift for a flight shot!😁

Little Egret in flight over calm blue water, wings fully extended to reveal layered white feathers, long black bill pointing forward and bright yellow feet trailing behind, with a faint reflection rippling on the water below.

Woodhouse's Scrub-jay #46, a blue-headed corvid that allowed me to just walk up to him in my Emory Oak and take close-ups in exchange for peanuts. Sweet deal.
