A White-throated Sparrow facing away from the camera with its tail up I the air. The bird has dark brown feathers with white underparts and a white rump spotted with brown. It's perched on a brown branch in a bush that's surrounded by white snow and red-brown foliage in the background. Seen at Stony Brook WS in Norfolk, Massachusetts.

A white peacock shows off his magnificent tail, apparently thinking that I was a peahen. Grounds of the Cathedral of St John the Divine in New York City. White peafowl do not occur in nature, they're bred that way. Indian peacocks have feathers on the head, African peacocks do not. So even in Africa I saw a bunch of colored peacocks on the grounds of a place, but they were the Indian type.

An American Robin stands on a railing and flips its tail up at the photographer. Rude.

For the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #TailsUp, here is a glorious #AmericanRobin butt. I don't know why these little guys have such elaborate butt feathers. Maybe they're just fancy like that.

I love mockingbirds, and this little one was so insistent on being fed despite the parents clearly trying to wean them off of it πŸ˜‚

A male Superb Fairywren perches on a green shrub. He has a brilliant electric-blue crown and cheeks, contrasted by a jet-black mask and neck collar. His upper back is bright blue, his wings are sandy brown, and his long, cocked tail is dark navy. The bird sits on the closest branch of the shrub, which is in sharp focus, while the surrounding green foliage quickly blurs into the foreground creating a soft depth of field. This makes the bird stand out vividly against a distant, out-of-focus wash of orange and yellows indicating dusk.

An adult male sparrowhawk is a small, slender bird of prey known for its speed and agility, often seen hunting in gardens. 

Small, compact, and slender, smaller than the female sparrowhawk. They have a long, thin tail and broad, short wings.

Back & wings - Slate-grey or bluish-grey.

Chest/Belly: Distinctive orange-brown or salmon-pink horizontal stripes (barring).

Face: Orange-pink flush.

Key Features: Bright yellow to deep amber-orange eyes and long, thin yellow legs.

Flight/Behaviour: Known for a "flap-flap-glide" motionβ€”a few rapid wingbeats followed by a short glide. They are adept at moving through trees and dense hedges. 

Comparison: The male is significantly smaller than the female, who is brown-backed and much larger.

Not done a follow up for #BirdOfTheDay before but this is probably my favourite ever #TailsUp photo that I've taken to date ~ the very stunning/beautiful Male Sparrowhawk 😍πŸͺΆπŸ¦‰ #birdingWales #ukbirding #birdphotography #bluesky #birdsofbluesky #EastCoastKin #birdsofprey #sparrowhawk
