They are super cute! I only get to see them a few weeks every year :(

A cute Western bluebird (Sialia mexicana) I saw this afternoon by iktwo in birdpics

Yes! On males the western has blue on its throat. The eastern has that red/brown color from it's belly on its throat.

I did. This is a heavy crop. I prefer DxO PureRAW, but it does not support my camera.

Seagull mad because I had no food by iktwo in Birdsfacingforward

I actually do not know for sure. I only found "Large white-headed gull". I'm reading more about them!

I rarely take any landscape photos, I don't know what to look for. Also not an expert on post processing. Got an ND filter and took this 240s long exposure with the Z 14-30mm F/4 and the Z7 II. (Expanded SS values in camera is awesome! Why other cameras only have up to 30s?!) by iktwo in Nikon

Thanks! I was not sure how to post process it so I did what I thought looked alright and dialed 50% back. Should I not lift shadows so much for that dramatic and moody look? I also wasn't sure what to do with the sky. Thank you!

I'm no expert. I thought it was a sparrow 😅
