A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!

Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

This little dude flew into my house when I left the window open, the best part? I was inside when it happened

That's why I say bird watching is a better hobby than fishing. How often does a fish randomly jump into a fisherman's house?

Did yer man manage to find his way out alright bud

He was a bit scared and didn't really want to fly, so I grabbed this long stick that I use to open the skylight, opened the skylight with it, and then let him hop on the stick, and lifted him out Tldr: I got him out safely

"If I look at the wall, he can't see me".

Or maybe it's embarrassed "How could I mistake this place for my nest? Am I stupid?"

“If I look at the wall, he can’t see me”.

Pretty sure that is also what the breeding feral pigeons on my balcony are doing, peekaboo 😆

So funny to see the clumsy young birds all around.
