Awww adorable 🥰

rasfrazzel.bsky.social•4 days ago

I like to call those “Blueberry Thieves”, because they steal all the blueberries off my two little bushes before I even get a chance at them!

beentsy.bsky.social•4 days ago

Ooo, my fave bird. So tiny, so round!

rebeccagrambo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Borb! 🎾

They have to be the coolest birds...next to juncos.

deblevy.bsky.social•3 days ago

My gosh, those are cute little birds.

melodygen.bsky.social•4 days ago

These are the most delightful birds! One of my favourite!

mikemelton.bsky.social•4 days ago

Mine, too!

ccolter.bsky.social•4 days ago

He's so FAT!♥️♥️♥️♥️

mikemelton.bsky.social•3 days ago

They're 99% feather. Their floofiness keeps them warm.

beedut.bsky.social•4 days ago

That's a load of Bushtit right there.

notacupoftea.bsky.social•3 days ago

That's a hekkin floof! It's beautiful!

"It's so fluffy I'm gonna die!!!"

salliforth.bsky.social•3 days ago

So fluffy! was my first thought

randyf.bsky.social•4 days ago

I love to see a flock of sub-golfball-sized Bushtits flitting around in little flocks. They are so noisy and energetic. ❤️

elizabethh.bsky.social•4 days ago

So cute and so not aerodynamic. 😆

mikemelton.bsky.social•4 days ago

They really don't fly very far so the aerodynamics aren't so important for them. They spend their whole lives in a relatively small area with their little families, flitting here and there.

elizabethh.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh yes I know, they come in waves here. They are part of my "no sit still" class of birds. 🙂

mickeya.bsky.social•4 days ago

Like my kids then. 😖

smallbirb.bsky.social•4 days ago

so much fluff to survive the winters!

petersealy.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wonderful capture!

mikemelton.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thanks, Peter!

tweetledumb.bsky.social•3 days ago

Better a BushTit than a TrumpTit

barry100afc.bsky.social•4 days ago

?? is it

carriem-p.bsky.social•4 days ago

Too cute! 🥰

robrtdavsn.bsky.social•4 days ago

So deserving. They go about their lives largely unnoticed by all of us.

Are they edible? He looks like a sweet treat

joycomes.bsky.social•4 days ago

😊sweet

energy171.bsky.social•3 days ago

Gorgeous. That having said, such is life that I read that as "bullshit"

sirflufffyvonmelt.bsky.social•4 days ago

He is thinking hmm ima get that worm waaaait for it

x-the-owl.bsky.social•4 days ago

Was that bird named by George Carlin?

dunfew.bsky.social•4 days ago

this one needs balls for sure

shroom-cat.bsky.social•4 days ago

I read this as Male Bullshit as first 😭

rfb71.bsky.social•4 days ago

I did too, watching too much news

shaynenaura-ox.bsky.social•4 days ago

This is a great bird but I swear to god when I was scrolling through my tired eyes read the name as, "butshit"

r08tam.bsky.social•4 days ago

Not just me then

atlshaun.bsky.social•4 days ago

read this way too fast

dpuelle.bsky.social•4 days ago

I read this as Male Bullshit. Which would have been a lifer.

merinnan.bsky.social•3 days ago

So did I, and was very confused for a moment about why the pic was of a cute birb until I reread the caption

jrosenbaum.com.au•12 hours ago

I read your post, looked at the post and read male bullshit. Soooo 🤷🏼

mikemelton.bsky.social•4 days ago

Really? Male bullshit really is pretty common.

hehastogo.bsky.social•3 days ago

Cutie

robertburke.bsky.social•3 days ago

That looks exactly like a UFO I saw in 1971.

gridflay.bsky.social•4 days ago

For this next problem set, assume a spherical bushtit of uniform floof...

hippodala.bsky.social•4 days ago

"Bushtit" is NOT what I saw on first glance.

justme113.bsky.social•4 days ago

Same! 😂

floydadatxjoe.bsky.social•4 days ago

Male ..woman? It is a joke......I know, I am terrible at stand-up.

crytzerfry.bsky.social•4 days ago

Fluff-ball o' plenty! so cute.
