Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LongLegs, any bird with long legs. While you wouldn't expect it from looking at them I think a great grey owl counts. Check out those legs! #owls #birds #greatgrey #mcoupephotography

Good morning birders. Rob has said: Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LongLegs, any bird with long legs. The Alt theme is #Borb, any bird appearing larger than it should be. Little Egret on the Catwalk #Ireland #birds #photography #ECK

A graceful Little Egret wades through calm, shallow water, lifting one black leg with its bright yellow foot just breaking the mirror-like surface. Its brilliant white plumage contrasts beautifully with the soft blue-grey water, while its slender black bill points forward as it scans for prey. A near-perfect reflection stretches beneath the bird, gently distorted by faint ripples from its stride. In the softly blurred background, two Ringed Plovers stand in the shallows—one probing the water with its bill while the other pauses, facing sideways. Dark patches of seaweed and a few scattered stones add subtle texture to the tranquil coastal scene, creating a peaceful portrait of shorebirds sharing the same tidal habitat.

A great blue heron stretches its wing and long leg at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado.

In this vertical color photograph, a great blue heron fills the frame as it perches on a large dead branch above a pond, facing the camera. Its head is turned to its left, revealing the right side of its face, while its slightly raised crown feathers add to its expressive appearance. The heron stretches its right wing outward as it extends its long right leg behind it, though the leg is mostly hidden by the outstretched wing. The background is softly blurred vegetation along the opposite shoreline, creating a pleasing contrast that draws attention to the bird.

A beautiful portrait of a great blue heron displaying a natural stretching behavior in the wetland habitat that is so vital to its survival.

Good morning folks. Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LongLegs, any bird with long legs. The Alt theme is #Borb, any bird appearing larger than it should be. The latest Alt Txt Stories have landed. #birds #photography #ECK #CanonR5mkii #ukbirding #birdphotography @rspb.bsky.social #BirdLife

Gary Grey Heron was out for a walk when he was caught short, so he pretended to stand still and act like a mannequin with a 3rd leg in the hope I didn't see what was happening.
Now I did warn Gary that if he didn't pick up his waste product (💩) I would be on speed dial to Freddie Fulmar, who would be out faster than 'Streethawk' (if you know you know, if not use Google) 😂.
So Gary decided it was best to retrieve what he had dropped before flying off in disgust because he didn't have a 💩 bag, meaning his wings were a darker shade until he could was it off.

Lisa Little Egret was feeling fresh after an overnight trip to 'Mind, Body & Wings Spa Center', which was a gift for her birthday from her partner Larry.
What Lisa failed to realise was that Larry bought her the Spa Treatment because he had planned a lads night out, which Larry wouldn't have been able to go on if Lisa was at home.
Larry thought he had been smart about it.and covered all scenarios, but Lisa arrived home early and found him drunk on the floor with some half eaten food on the floor beside him.
So in the end Lisa had the last laugh when she chucked a bucket of cold water over Larry to wake him up, so he could tidy up the mess he had left strewn around the house.

Beryl Blue Tit's mind had been pre-occupied recently which meant she was eating more than she had realised, that was until she came across Barry Blue Tit.
Barry was always blunt with his comments and had asked her when she was due to drop her eggs, now although Beryl didn't show it in front of Barry, she was really upset about his comment.
But this was the kick up the rear she needed to do something about her size, and booked a few sessions with the PT down at 'Wings, Bums & Tums' Gymnasium. It wasn't long before she was feeling much better about herself, and was able to look in the mirror and not feel disgusted about her size.

Percy Puffin was enjoying his tryout for his local NFL Team the 'New England Puffins', and had been given the nickname of 'The Fridge'. Now he couldn't decide whether they chose that because he had eaten everything that was in the fridge or because he was as big as it.
Either way he was happy with his nickname and had been chosen to stay on and train with the team for the upcoming friendly against the 'Baltimore Ravens' before the New NFL Season kicks off on the 14th August.

My #longlegs contribution for #birdoftheday is the glorious Secretarybird from #SouthAfrica. These birds walk through the grasses hunting for snakes which they pummel with their long, strong legs. #birds #nature
