Birds are part of everyone's lives. The beautiful plumages of feathers, ranging from those of the muted pastel greys and yellows of the Warbling Vireo to the iridescent Sparkling Violet-ear hummingbird. They are attractive and detailed, perfect subjects for photography.

To showcase birds in all their feathered glory, I bring you The Daily Feather. It will feature one photo per day. It may be of a plain bird or a vivid bird, but each is beautiful in its own way. I hope you will enjoy my photographs!

Immature Male Ruby-throated Hummingbird

(Sorry for two silhouette photos in a row; I just really liked this one.)


Fun fact: Ruby-throated hummingbirds migrate over 600 miles over the Gulf of Mexico!
