Part of many bird species' preening routine is the wing flap. In the case of Roseate Spoonbills, it's a pretty spectacular display.
A Black-crowned Night Heron makes an appearance in the background.
This shot was taken at the South Padre Island Birding and Nature Center, Texas.
This Anhinga, in his iconic pose, is drying his wings. They are sometimes seen with cormorants which also dry their wings in this manner.
some trees just can't help themselves,
subtlety is not in their nature :)

After this Common Yellowthroat Warbler sang me his beautiful song, he turned for a side view and then flew off. Thanks little guy!
05/14/20...woke up...that's always good. I took this photo outside, sitting on the deck. I plan on hanging there more to acclimate the birds. Taken 05/13/2020.
A little Beatles to start the day:
Boy, you gotta carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy, you gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time

Saw this scene while walking the dog and heard a bike coming. I had about 10 seconds and the camera was in my shoulder bag, but got the picture just in time. Didn't have time to check the settings at all, but I knew they were in the ballpark. Didn't imagine the guy on the moped to wheelie through the intersection, so that was a surprise :D The legends say that he is still popping a wheelie out there somewhere...
A male sagebrush lizard displaying his bright blue markings. We ran into quite a few of these guys on our short hike last weekend.
I’ve caught glances of Pyrrhuloxia before but my recent south Texas trip was the first opportunity to get some good photographs of them. They are also known as “Desert Cardinals” because they greatly resemble the Northern Cardinal. Unlike the almost pure red of the Northern Cardinal male the male Pyrrhuloxia is only stylishly accented with red. The Pyrrhuloxia’s bill is also distinctive: the Pyrruloxia having an unusual bend and the N Cardinal having a typical straight bill. I read that both species have the same calls but that the N Cardinal’s is louder. Just like his bright suit. (Cardinalis sinuous) (Sony a9, 200-600 @ 250mm, 1/8000 second, f/6.3, ISO 1600)
On this day the Shovelers were in rare form as they stood up, flapped their wings and showed their beautiful colors. It took a little patience to wait for the action we desired but the waiting payed off in dividends by giving us this wonderful shot. The male was showing off for the females. The male has an iridescent green head, long, oversized black bill, and yellow eye. And he never fails to amaze us.
It's all here springtime showoff...budding and mostly there.
Full blooms are a coming.
Pushing on that trigger is like pulling magic into my very soul...Darrell.
Have a awesome spring day dear flickr friends.
thank you to everyone for your visits to my photo-stream....very much appreciated !
As you watch the ducks in water preening themselves every once in a while they will stand up and perform a “wing flap.” As this Male Bufflehead did while wooing the females in MLK Regional Shoreline. Males leave their mates during incubation in order to molt, but return to the same mate multiple years in a row (one of the few duck species in which this is true). We find this bird difficult to photograph as the iridescent green and purple sheen seems to confuse the camera.
Monarch Pose #3
This is a male Monarch Butterfly. The black spots on its hind wings is the identifier.
