#Birds Atlantic Birding @atlanticbirding.bsky.social on their first day, has chosen the #BirdOfTheDay theme as #Firsts some of your earliest bird captures. Taken with a little Sony Cybershot in 2016, the year I started to take pics of birds instead of only watching them. An agreeable Nuthatch.

A small bird perched on a green suet cage, faces left against a light grey background. It has a narrow black cap & a black eye band through a white face. The breast feathers are light orangish tan & the wing feathers are a slate blue.

AB’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Firsts, your earliest bird capture(s). Alt is @atlanticbirding.bsky.social’s most captured family: #Robins #birds #birding #eck The very first bird photos I saved! I was amazed by all its wonderful colors, and I still am! @luiscavalcanti.bsky.social

A small bird perched on a chain link fence with a cyan colored head and bright patterning on its back almost Aztec in nature, in my humble opinion.

One of my first photos. The light from the low winter sun started interacting with low clouds at noon, which caused this amazing light. The birds stand on rocks just under the surface, far from land. #sea #scape #clouds #BirdOfTheDay #Firsts #birds #photography

A photo from the sea taken around noon in early December when the low winter sun and the low clouds created this golden light. Cormorants appear to stand on water as the skerries are just covered by the tide. Taken with an old Nikon compact, with a tiny sensor, but which gives really nice colors when shooting against soft light.

Hi folks my cohost AB @atlanticbirding.bsky.social has said the #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Firsts some of your earliest bird captures. Alt. is my most captured; #Robins I’m going with a #ForJanet #Robin as my first bird shots were taken in 1989. 😅😅 #birds #photography #ECK

A European robin stands upright on a weathered stone covered with patches of moss, facing slightly to the left. Its vivid orange-red face and breast contrast beautifully with its soft grey-brown back and pale grey-white belly. The robin’s glossy dark eye catches the light, giving it an alert, inquisitive expression, while its slender black bill is closed. The background is a smooth wash of muted green tones, creating a clean, uncluttered backdrop that makes the bird’s colourful plumage stand out in sharp detail.

Good morning All. I thought that as today is my first day, the #BirdOfTheDay theme should be: #Firsts some of your earliest bird captures. Alt. is my most captured; #Robins - Male Reed Bunting, shot in my 1st fortnight of having a camera - The ubiquitous European Robin #birds #photography #ECK

A Male Reed Warbler on a thin plant stalk. The bird is left of centre of the shot perched near the top of tall, dried out plant stalk that is bent over at a 45 degree angle with the weight of the bird. It is turned slightly to look right so that its front, belly and right side can be seen.
Another plant stalk is vertical beside the bird.
The background is an out focus blue sky with two thin, vertical tree branches sparsely covered in green leaves.

A European Robin perched on a thin Sycamore branch. The bird is right of frame, the underside of its tail and body are fully visible, as is its chest. Its head is turned to the left so that the left side of its head can be seen.
It is perched on a small sycamore branch which runs vertically along the right of the picture. A second, larger branch runs from the bottom, slightly left of the centre, to the top right hand corner.
The background is out of focus branches lit brightly by sunlight

Kevin the Kingfisher. Uncropped and just as I saw it down the lens. I'd never photographed a Kingfisher, or even seen one perched, before this. I can still remember my legs shaking as I took it. #BirdOfTheDay #Firsts #Birds #Wildlife #BirdPhotography #ECK

Canada goose on still water reflecting blue skies #BirdOfTheDay is #Firsts. This isn’t my 1st bird pic, but is the oldest one I can find, from 2016. Anything older is hiding in a shoe box or on an old external drive somewhere! #BlueSkyMonday #Birds #BirdsOfBlueSky #Photography #ECK #EastCoastKin
