🪶📷 @robcrank68.bsky.social's #BirdOfTheDay today is #LMNO, any bird whose name starts with one of those letters. Long-tailed duck in icy waters. I like the colour on the water from a boat's reflection. Taken lying on the edge of a snow-covered jetty. #ECK #birds #birdphotography #BirdsofBlueSky

A long-tailed duck faces left swimming in water coloured deep blue by the reflection of a boat's hull. The duck is white, grey and chocolate brown with a small pink tip to the beak. A chunk of ice floats in the background.

a linnet looking somewhat windswept as its feathers look ruffled is sitting on top of a ragged hedgerow. It has a speckled breast with rosy hints and a brown head and back. Soft green fills the background

a meadow pipit sits on the same ragged hedgerow. It is taller and slenderer than the linnet, also with a speckled breast on pale plumage.

Rob Crank’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LMNO, any bird whose name starts with one of those letters. Here's a least sandpiper near a greenbelt pond back in May. 📷 #Fujifilm #FinepixS1 #photography #birdphoto #wildlife #ECK #sandpipers #LeastSandpipers

Least sandpiper walking toward the camera across wet mud held in place by a woven mesh, which leaves a faint checkered pattern on the surface. The small shorebird is seen head-on, with a thin, slightly drooping dark bill, a rusty-brown cap with dark streaks, and dark eyes. Its breast is washed with brown streaks above a clean white belly. The back and wing feathers are scaled in dark brown, black, and rusty buff. Dull yellowish legs show beneath the body. The ground is a mottled mix of green, olive, and gray, and the light is soft and low.

Moorhen for #BirdOfTheDay theme #LMNO #Moorhen #BirdPhotography #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #10MinutesFromHome #Cheshire #EastCoastKin 📷 Canon EOS R50 🔘 Canon EF 100–400mm

A common moorhen swimming towards the right across calm grey water, with soft ripples and a dark reflection beneath it. Its charcoal-grey and brown plumage contrasts with a bright red bill tipped with yellow, and distinctive white markings along its flanks and raised tail. Photographed locally in Cheshire.

So pleased to have another #Robin for Jane's #SmallBirdSaturday and Rob's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme. This one arrived in my front garden this week, looking for treats on the ground. #ForJanet #BirdPhotography #Birds #UKbirding #NatureTherapy #NaturePhotography #Birdwatching #EastCoastKin

A European Robin, with its back to the camera, stands on a low brick wall by a garden border, turning its head to the left and revealing its red face mask. Behind the bird a black pole carries multiple bird feeders but our Robin has yet to negotiate the flight path to those. I usually place some treats on the ground but these had gone by the time it arrived on Thursday afternoon. Hopefully, he will get there on time today.
Camera: iPhone 15 Pro.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by Rob is #LMNO, any bird whose name starts with one of those letters. The Alt theme is #Robins, any Robin Species. For the main theme today, this Long-tailed Tit looks like it has been over inflated by a balloon pump 🙂

A Long-tailed Tit sits on the red branch of a Cornus. It is black and white in colour, with pink coloured feathers on its head and wings.

Rob has chosen #LMNO for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme so I'm sharing a couple of Nuthatches from my yard this afternoon. It also works for #SmallBirdSaturday. #Birds #ECK

Two Red-breasted Nuthatches perched on a black, metal, double shepherd's hook. The one in the foreground is in focus, facing the left and looking downward. The one in the background is not quite in focus, facing the right and looking forward. The distant background is soft reds and greens from a variety of foliage.
