Bottoms Up!

Feathered Friends Contest 73 Birds Bum/Bottoms

Bottoms up is not always about toasting someone informally before enjoying a drink, sometimes the best we can do with photography when birds are perched on high is capture those cute little bums.

Ducks butts are relatively regular when around a pond when snorkeling in search of food.

Perhaps a cute little bottom between the branches of trees.

Maybe height is the problem zooming in no matter you try, soft feathers under little tail end is winking at you.

Occasionally out of desperation the dive in is needed to collect seed or wash down feathers keeping clean.

Early morning or late afternoon top of trees waiting for the sun, sunshine time!

Taking a break from nest building to do a download, a little red faced don't you think?

Deep in the reeds looking for a treat, snap you have a butt shot! No much more doing here.....

Great bottom shots with a sense of humor. :)) love the red faced one

He seriously came out from building to drop one off that branch, he should be red with embarrassment, alas his natural look.

Lovely images, Joan, funny and entertaining post - I love the duck in the first image, it remembers me on the swans in the reservoir where I often go for a walk 😊


!WINE makes a delicious dinner with !PIZZA :)

Little white ducks very rare to see, swans nowhere to be found that I know of.

Was fun thinking about how often these guys look you straight in the eye and drop one, gotta keep looking up!

!WINEX greatly appreciated with the !PIZZA at days end, hope you had a not too busy one, almost weekend again!

I don't think I have ever seen a white duck in nature myself.

As long as they are not straight above you when they do their business it's funny, but always looking up if something's falling down is certainly a great idea 😁


Maybe you like a !PIZZA fresh from the Oven 😋

Research revealed white ducks imported for farming, possibly escapees with two on the pond at the time.

Some crazy told me it brings you good luck to be hit, sure would not like to be underneath bigger birds like Hadada!

Have a great Friday !WINEX

True, now that you are saying this I remember that I might have seen some at at farms, but thesecould also have been white geese because it's a long time ago 😁 !LOLZ

Oh no, I was hit by such things on my head before but never had luck afterwards 😉

Friday was a very busy 24-hour shift till this morning, so I didn't go online, but now it's Saturday and I'm wishing you a great weekend 😊


Have a !PIZZA from me, served with !LUV

White birds in the wild are normally Egrets large and small, white swans, goose and ducks must be from the North.

"If a bird poops on you or anything you own, it's said to be good luck!" not so sure about the mess you clean up! Old Granny tales...

Have a great weekend after the long haul of hours in the office !LOLZ

!LUV with !PIZZA dinner to follow.

I wouldn't buy anything with Velcro
It's a total rip-off.

Handsome fellow all dressed up ready to enchant, birds mix colours we could only dream of, perhaps that is why so many outrageous clashes in design look good.

Thanks for the token 🤗

Hello dear friend @joanstewart good morning
What a beautiful post, I love the fun shots you have taken, I always admire the variety of birds that are in your town
I really appreciate that you shared these beautiful shots
Have a beautiful day

Thanks for enjoying a chuckle with me, many photographs no matter how you try will give you a rear glimpse inclusive.

Thanks @ackhoo trust you and the @qurator team are all keeping well. Happy Friday greetings coming your way with sunshine smile today 🌞

Only animals that dress are humans!

That's a funny thing.
Duck bottoms seem to always be up in the air. I always wondered how they keep their balance for so long while in that position.

Hanging onto the bottom !LOLZ well positioned letting you know what they up to.

Humans are strange animals, dressing up one know in state of emergency how hampering that can be. Then some think theirs doesn't smell, or go to outrageous expense as to the look of the room, does it make any difference as to what you have to do?

Does refusing to go to the gym
count as resistance training?

This is really really cool photography.
I was very amused to see it.

Good to hear you had a little fun reading this one, yes we forget to smile sometimes.

Haha, very joyful post and again the proverb is spot on. 😄

Smile for awhile, life is good when we look on the bright side. Have a wonderful day @nelinoeva

Always look on the bright side of life🎶🎶🎵🎵🎼

so many beautiful birds

the kid in me always chuckles when I see a duck like that LOL

Need to let the kid out more often, sure feels good!

Ohh yes I seldom restrain my inner kid lOL

Good selection. Kingfisher...oh, I love these guys!

Most faithful visitor daily to come greet, favourite perch right outside my window where he dives to get whatever moves below.

I liked the first one the best.

First one epitomizes caption offered to share.🙃

Hi @joanstewart I love your collection of birds especially the duck.

A rare sighting here in South Africa, must have escaped a farm to freedom.
