Little pied cormorant (shag) with #openwings for #birdoftheday.
A Bald Eagle looks mighty majestic as it flies with its wings stretched out. The tips of the wings have a slight curl just to add a bit of flourish.
The theme for today’s #BirdOfTheDay is #OpenWings 🪶 🦅

#birdoftheday #openwings A Social Flycatcher from 70 yards away, a Bronze Winged Parrot in flight, a Rusty Margined Flycatcher chasing away a tanager, and two Bronze Winged Parrots feeding together moving through the branches, one of them the same as the 2nd photo.

#birdoftheday #openwings #openbeak Three happy Spectacled Parrotlets--I saw a flock of about 10 feeding and chirping for joy. A Mountain Cacique in flight, the same bird eating berries. A Red Capped Woodpecker with a bug in its beak. Delicious!

I suspect these two are arguing over what’s for dinner.
A medium-shot, front-facing photograph shows a Muscovy duck with its large wings fully spread in a symmetrical V-shape. The duck has a white head and neck with distinctive red, fleshy caruncles around its eyes and base of the beak. Its chest is dark brown, while its wings feature a mix of bright white inner feathers and brownish-grey primary feathers. The bird is positioned centrally against a soft-focus, neutral-toned background of water.

Hope everyone is having a good day. 🫶✌️

Three white pelicans with open wings sit on the edge of a pond. One of the pelicans has its beak open. Other ducks can be seen swimming in the pond.
It’s rare that I have a bird photo for #birdoftheday because I almost always take bad bird pics but this one fits both #openwings and #openbeak.

Horizontal black and white photo of an adult white stork is landing with wide-spread wings and slightly bent legs on its huge nest where a juvenile stork awaits its parent, standing in a begging posture with its beak open. The sky is cloudless and the sun shines brightly on the back and wings of the adult whose arrival casts the only shadow on the juvenile. In the middle at the bottom there is my copyright saying 'C.

Glad to see @alan678.bsky.social on his way to recovery, who has chosen #OpenBeak as main & #OpenWings as alt themes for today's #BirdOfTheDay!
Here's a #photo from summer'25 to cover both themes at once!

Photo taken at Arlingham Gloucestershire A female kestrel is a small, slender bird of prey, a little larger than the size of a pigeon or a Mourning Dove (10-13 inches long). She is primarily identified by a warm, brown appearance with patterned feathers, often seen hovering over roadsides or fields.

Photograph of a Black-browed Albatross standing on its nest looking down on its white fluffy chick which is draped over the side of the large cup shaped mound with its head extended horizontally and its little wings stretched. As a fully grown adult the long thin black wings will reach a span of up to 250cm allowing it to glide above the waves effortlessly in all weathers
"If I stretch them will they grow?"
