I've posted this before, but it fits today's theme of #BirdStare so well.

This is what a Snowy Owl looks like if you are prey.

This Gyr Falcon has the #BirdStare down pat.

He's all puffed up since the shot was taken on a brisk
December day.

Pied-billed grebes for #BirdOfTheDay theme #TheDivers... though they also have a bit of the alt theme #BirdStare to them!
An adult bird with grey neck and tan body looks back over its shoulder in profile, while a juvenile bird with striped face looks at the camera head on, as both float among red water plants and green water.

Our resident chickadees are the birds least afraid of me and most likely to engage in staredowns, especially when they think the feeder isn't full enough.😂 #BirdOfTheDay #BirdStare #Birds #Photography #EastCoastKin
A chestnut-backed chickadee (Poecile rufescens) perches in a pine tree staring directly at the camera. It's a tiny bird in the Paridae family with a black and white head, rich chestnut brown back and sides, light gray underside, and mostly dark gray wings and tail.

Helen chooses #TheDivers for #BirdOfTheDay today!

Share your fab photos of any diving bird...

Alt theme: #BirdStare Any bird captured staring right back at you!

Anhinga for Me ain,

Anhinga, mostly submerged, neck and head above water here. Image is a favorite of mine because the bird's tail feathers, spread wide, can be seen just behind and just under the surface of the water Great Egret, staring at photographer, slight side- eye, wondering if that sharp murder beak will be needed this time.

#birdoftheday #birdstare these male & female wood ducks don't like me very much. The female in particular is giving off Lady Macbeth vibes.
A male wood duck stares right at me. A female wood duck is upset that I'm taking her picture while she's nest hunting.

A burrowing owl cocking it's head to one side and giving me a wondering look. Behind it is a field of gold while it stands on a dirt berm.
