A roadrunner, honest 😁
Almost a photo of a roadrunner but showing just legs and tail feathers as it zooms off a small table after eating. Tall brown native grass is seen beyond.

I’m resurrecting #PhotoFailFriday for this gem. Look, birds in flight are hard ok? Lol

One long wing is all that’s visible of a large flying bird, probably a gull.

Many a #WorstBirdPic was taken today, especially involving this Pileated Woodpecker.

A reddish brown bird takes off in a blur. Only the bare branch it was on before is in focus.

Seems about right for fall warbler viewing 🙄 #worstbirdpic #birdbutt (It's a Palm Warbler. Trust me) #birds
The backside of a warbler, perched on a bare twig. Its butt is in the air, showing off its yellow under-tail coverts.

The November gloom has arrived so it's time to #Fallback six months to May 22, when it was warm and springy.

On that day I took one of my very favorite #WorstBirdPic s. Just look at this extreme silliness. #PhotoFailFriday

(Pileated Woodpecker) #birds
A blurry bird's head is just visible at the bottom of the photo, one eye and a red crest peeking up. The vine above it is perfectly in focus, presenting an amusing contrast

Birds can be a challenge to photograph. 😅 They’re lovely anyway though, even slightly headless.

A bright blue sky and at the very top is most of a white egret flying away, legs dangling and head out of the frame.

Rear view of a brown/grey bird partially obscured by branches. Fortunately, it has a VERY OBVIOUS yellow rump. It is a yellow-rumped warbler.

This only qualifies for #PhotoFailFriday if you prefer Harriers over Ducks. Apparently AutoFocus prefers ducks 🤷🏻‍♀️ #worstbirdpic #birds
An out of focus harrier cruises by in the foreground while a distant duck on the lake is in sharp focus.
