#greatbackyardbirdcount — Public Fediverse posts

On the last day of the 2026 Great Backyard Bird Count i did finally count some birds, in someone elses backyard.

Not sure how to term this
A Murder witnessing a Murder or a Murder Wake

Saw about 30 House Crows (maybe more) very noisy & swirling , & and sitting in a somewhat orderly fashion on roof tops. They were upset. Walked a bit & found a older pup / young dog possessively guarding a dead crow. Pictures attached

Why Gardeners Should Care About the Great Backyard Bird Count https://www.allforgardening.com/1606025/why-gardeners-should-care-about-the-great-backyard-bird-count/ #BirdBehavior #garden #gardening #GreatBackyardBirdCount #HabitatLoss

A Mistle Thrush (Turdus viscivorus) in the Lesser & Greater Himalayas. Not an easily seen bird but not uncommon in the right habitat or season

The latin Specific name "viscivorus" translates as Mistletoe eater (also the origins of its common english name). I am yet to see it forage on Himalayan mistletoe equivalents.

I participated in the Great Backyard Bird Count back in February and wrote a piece about it on Daily Kos.

This killdeer showed a real lack of situational awareness: came prancing up to me as if the chain link fence between us made me invisible! Maybe e was just very eager to be counted in the #GreatBackyardBirdCount!

#GreatBackyardBirdCount special visitors today included a Cooper’s Hawk (being seen off by our Crow Neighborhood Watch) and a pair of chestnut-backed chickadees, possibly the first time I’ve seen them in my yard!

Doesn’t this one look as if it has pollen on its wee fiz?

Pretty quiet at the feeders for the #GreatBackyardBirdCount this morning, but a Northern Flicker stopped by to nosh on some Virginia Creeper berries. Jim DeWitt photo. #birds #birding #GBBC

Pulled off one more #GreatBackyardBirdCount over at my sister's house today. Not too many birds there, thanks to a Cooper's Hawk stopping by to look for a meal. A Bald Eagle was kind enough to fly past waaay up high. #birds #birding #GBBC

The annual #GreatBackyardBirdCount is underway. I just finished a long walk around our neighborhood where the most common species I saw was the beautiful Cedar Waxwing. I love their little bandito masks. #birds #birding #GBBC
