#BirdoftheDay #branched Pick a branch, any branch. This little guy has his place on a branch, but it does not look like a comfortable one. I will leave it at that. Have a comfortable day.

#FightingFeathers #BirdOfTheDay Two turkeys having a small disagreement, and a Turkey Vulture sitting a few posts down, maybe to see if the loser might make a good lunch!

#BlueSkyMonday Blue sky, blue water, old wooden lighthouse, and a little fall color. And whether you believe me or not, I did not "pump up" the blue in this water!

#BirdOfTheDay #OnOneLeg Here are a couple birds holding their own with only one leg.

I am not a poet, so here is a poem I wrote this morning. "Solving Today’s Problems" Practice resistance, With never-ending persistence. I didn't say it was good, but it does rhyme. 🤪 Ogden Nash did it much better. Have a poetic week!

For #Stunday, some fall images while we still have a little fall with us.

#BlueSkyArtShow #transportation It may have been transportation once, but now it is more like "rustic" art, emphasis on the rust.

#SmallBirdSaturday Nuthatches will always be one of my favorite birds.

Always forget #FlowersOnFriday It's almost the weekend, but here are a few flowers that are making it in a tough place.

#BlueskyArtShow #transportation early. A place where they do transportation the healthy way.

So, #BirdoftheDay ALT theme is #Green, any bird with a green background. Here is a guy floating around and enjoying all the greenery? green-ness? greenormity? Okay, this post has finally turned brown, and I am moving on to greener pastures.🤪

#BirdOfTheDay #Juveniles Here is a crowd at feeding time.

#BirdOfTheDay #littlelegs? Don't all little birds have little legs? Now that I think of it—no! So, one little bird with big legs—inappropriate. And one little bird with little legs.

#RockinTuesday Weird rock. Did someone glue this together from a lot of other rocks? Is this some kind of map rock? Have I gone too far with this? I know the answer to that one: Yes!

Posting early for #RockinTuesday. On vacation. Chaos. Mine, Crow on the rocks with water and waves in the background, giving me the evil eye beause I am taking his picture. Have a great Tuesday, and if someone deserves the evil eye, let them have it!😜

#BirdOfTheDay #reflection This guy, hanging out to see himself in his own little wetland.

#BirdOfTheDay First it's #Dawn, then it's #Dusk. Can we never decide? Both great times of the day to catch a photo. Here is a string of Pelicans (you have to look closely) on their way home from work, being Pelicans . . . ? Have a great weekend being whoever or whatever you are!

#BirdOfTheDay #Dawn A few Geese in a fog, trying to get going for a new day.

Traveling tomorrow, so I will post #BlueSkyArtShow #walls tonight. I love old walls and am always impressed with how they last and how some of them were made with odd assortments of materials. Here are a few.

#Scape day? Fall scape? Bench scape? What are the guidelines for this? I need direction! Specificity! No, I don't. Here is a picture that must fit some kind of #scape definition. Hope you find a beautiful scape to enjoy this weekend.

#BirdOfTheDay #UrbanBirds Around my place, Sparrows. Some days a couple, some days a crowd. No small morsel of food on the ground goes undevoured. Is undevoured a word? Ask the Sparrows . . .🤪

Hmm. My feed tonight is almost all politics. I like to keep up with what's going on, but I also need a break from it once in a while. For #WhateverWednesday then, I will provide this break with some fall pictures I have taken recently. Have a great night and give yourself a break now and then. FWIW

#BirdOfTheDay #ShoreBirds I have many pictures of shore birds, so I will post one that provides a smorgasbord of choices. Is it possible to have a smorgasbord of birds? Did I even spell it right? I knew I should not have responded until after tea. Hope your day is a smorgasbord of good things.

Got another one for #BirdOfTheDay #LookingDown A Royal Tern(?) looking for that one little fish who might not be paying attention.

#BirdOfTheDay #LookingDown This is a good one for Nuthatches, as they are frequently moving down trees head-first, but I will go with this Red-Tailed Hawk, who was looking for a "snack."

One more for #BlueSkyMonday A squirrel, out on a limb, trying to decide if he wants to make the jump to the next branch through a blue sky. And, of course, he did, once I lowered my camera!

Okay, one more. #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #blue. Here is a little Indigo Bunting, which should qualify with all kinds of shades of blue.

For #BlueSkyMonday, a Red-Tailed Hawk taking off into a blue sky. Hope you are all off to a good start to your blue sky week.

#BirdoftheDay #Brown Not the most exciting color out there, but if you mix a few "browns" together, you could make a few artistic waves like this little guy is doing. Have a great week.

One more post for #BlueSkyArtShow #weather. Some weather you may or may not be looking forward to. No cause for alarm, I am sure it will be at least a week or so before it arrives. Please don't throw things—wait for the snow when you can throw snowballs.🤪

So, in my last post for #BlueSkyArtShow #weather, I forgot the "#weather." This is about normal for me, unfortunately. Here's another post for these hashtags, with images that convey the quality of my posts. "Don't know why, there's no sun out in the sky, stormy weather . . ." Old, old song lyrics.🤪

#BlueskyArtShow We all like a sunny day, but if things are going to grow, as they say, into each life a little rain must fall . . . Hope you all find the kind of weather you are looking for this weekend.

One more fall post before I go out to walk. I hope to get some other pictures today, but if I don't, it will still be great to get out. Have a great day.

Another #BirdOfTheDay #eating Sure. Here is one bird eating and the other one feeding. Let's hope they switched roles once in a while.

#BirdOfTheDay #crooners Crooners? Great old word. Here are couple, singing a duet?

#BirdOfTheDay #Perched Missed this one the first time around. Hanging out in a Bluebird Parking Zone.

#WindowsOnWednesday? #WateringCansOnWednesday? #WateringCansHangingOnWindowsWednesday? Pick a winner. A really cool building I stumbled upon when traveling, kind of the same way I stumbled upon all these moronic hashtags! Hope you find some great windows today.

#BirdOfTheDay #bluewater Cannot remember what bird it was (Anhinga?) taking off in blue water. Have a blue water day.

#BirdOfTheDay #SuperModel Another one that is definitely open to artistic interpretation. Are they posing? Are they models? Do they think they are beautiful? Could I tell if they were? Not a chance, but here they are for your artistic interpretation.🤪

One more #RockinTuesday A little patch of blue surrounded by all kinds of rocks. The blue is water and sky. The blue is water reflecting the blue of the sky.

For #RockinTuesday, one of my oldest images and a testament to the clarity of Lake Superior. These rocks are underwater.

Okay, one more for #BirdOfTheDay alt theme, #badweather. A Hummingbird, watching the sky and wondering when it is going to stop raining so he can dry off. Is rain bad weather? Like so many things, it all depends . . .

#BirdOfTheDay #BlueSkies Accidentally posted one for this a minute ago without knowing today's theme! Here is another one—an Eagle, coming in for a landing against a blue, blue sky.

An Oriole, taking a leap into #BlueSkyMonday to start the week. Taken earlier this spring. It was a good year for Orioles here. Have a BlueSky week.

#BirdOfTheDay #WingsOpenNotFlying An Anhinga, catching a little sun and watching others pass by.

#BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #LongBeak Here is a long beak, about to spear something with it.

#BirdOfTheDay is #Black&Red Here are a couple that fit this description, with some other colors thrown in, no charge.

#BlueSkyArtShow #3rdplace This is a tough one, but here it is. One of these cars came in first place, one came in second place, and one came in third place. Really, all of them ended up looking like they lost but probably had fun doing it! Even if you only come in third place today, have fun.
