A bird standing in water, at the top of a waterfall, so the water is coming from the right and falling over the edge. Our view is over the top, so we don't see the water falling, just spilling over the edge. To the left we see some large, blurry, orange rocks, and some blurry water that looks like it is moving or has some foam on top. The bird is standing right at the edge, facing toward the right, with one leg lifted like it is stepping forward. The head, beack, neck, back, and tail are dark gray. There is some white above the beak and above the eye. The underside of the bird is white. The legs are dark.

large-billed crow again💓
They've adapted life with humans in cities, very good at spotting people with food 🥪 😆 quite a large bird but not as much as a raven.

Small bird close up and large in the frame, standing on a flat gravel path with a few dried leaves on the ground. It is in profile, facing toward the left. The bird has an orange body. The face, neck, and beak are black. The top of the head is gray. The wing is black with a white spot, and there is black along the top of the tail, which is orange underneath. The legs are black.

You google Tokyo Bay, the AI tells you it's one of the most extremely industrialised, densely populated, and heaviky contaminated bays in the world 😭 and it's true 😭 and yet, thousands of Scaups come every winter😍

Three sparrows sitting on a flat hand rail. The rail runs from the lower left corner to the middle of the frame, and then turns and runs straight to the back of the frame. The sparrows are sitting on the bend in the rail. One sparrow is looking directly at the camera, and the two others are further back and facing to the right. The sparrows have a light-brown belly and brown striped back and wings. The top of the head is a grayish brown, and the face is black and white. Black around the eyes and under the beak, and a black spot on either cheek. The background is blurry and various colors and shapes.

Duck in the lower left of the frame, with its head in the center of the frame. All feathers brown with white highlights on the tips. Broad beak is brownish with orange around the edges. Orange feet can be seen in the water. Rest of the frame is water with bright reflection of the sky. A reflection of the duck on the water.

One larger bird and several gulls sitting on rocks surrounded by water. The rocks and the birds are on the right side of the frame. The larger bird is dark with some white on his neck and face. Also some yellow on the face. The beak is long and gray, squared and hooked downward at the end. It tail is long and dark. The neck appears to be long and bent in an S shape. It is looking out over the water to the left. It is much taller than the gulls. The gulls have gray backs, darker tails, and white heads and bellies. There are dark smudges behind the eyes. Most of them have their heads bent down and are preening. The leftmost gull is leaning toward the water with its head turned to the side.

Bird on a tree branch. Head is gray/green with hints of yellow. The back is brown, and the chest/belly is a lighter shade of brown. The wings are black, white, and bright yellow. The face is black and the beak is short and thick, and a light pink color. There are some small seed shells stuck on the beak. The bird is in profile, facing to the left. There are a couple other blurry branches in the frame, and the background is blurry shades of green, white, gray and brown.

I just discovered it is National Bird Day today! Here's a photo of an Oriental Greenfinch, taken along the Shukugawa river in Nishinomiya, Japan.

Brown and white duck, with a dark bill that is yellow on the end of it. Head and neck are white, but there is a stripe across the top of the head, another through the eye, and a small one behind the bill. Tip of wing is white. It is swimming in clear water, and below the surface you can see sand with patches of green.
