Per @robcrank68.bsky.social, today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BestOfTheMonth. I’m currently in Spain and one evening after sunset I got out my camera to take shots of the crescent #moon, when I saw objects passing through the frame, turned out to be these. Serendipity #swifts.

Per @alan678.bsky.social, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #NegativeSpace, where the subject occupies only a small portion of the frame, and the Alt theme is #Solitude, a single bird deep in thought. This photo of a female red-bellied #woodpecker maybe fits both.
