Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

I want my bathroom to be the the color of the blue around the eyes

Nothing made you interesting - these doves are just stupid as fuck.

This one looks like it has the >!"Bird is the word"!< song stuck on loop inside its head.

(Spoiler if you don't want an annoying earworm stuck in your head all week.)

It just two brain cells passing the word ‘bird’ between them

We've had a nesting pair on our sill this year and they are on their fourth set of eggs already, these guys do not mess around.

Did you take this one your camera phone? It’s super nice!

[–] kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I did actually, yes!

My only regret is how filthy my window is.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

It looks just fine, it’s a stunning pic and you should enter it into some kind of contest

You’re being surveilled. Wonder what government watchlist you’re on?

I miss hearing these. Moved to the other side of the continent and a ways north, and they don't hang out here.
