Truly the borbiest of all the borbs. Great image. The light on those feathers-gorgeous.

marinamueller935.bsky.social•17 days ago

Get outta town! Someone stuck feathers on a snowball 🧐 Seriously, this is smile inducing material 😊

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

Feathers on a snowball! 😂 That is the perfect description!

marinamueller935.bsky.social•17 days ago

😂

wildmurr.bsky.social•17 days ago

And, perhaps it's the camera angle...

wildmurr.bsky.social•17 days ago

Hey...give the guy a break. He's just fluffy. It's cold.

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

I mean no disrespect! I’m certain the birds were warmer than me out on a windy jetty in winter

kevin.wertman.org•18 days ago

Laughing out loud here! What a #borb

glengrambo.bsky.social•18 days ago

Outstanding!

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

How is it so perfectly round? It's truly impressive

glengrambo.bsky.social•18 days ago

A perfect sphere!

ok2panic.bsky.social•18 days ago

Borb Butt checks two boxes! That’s a keeper! 😂

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

I've got to pull out the top tier photos to keep us going these days!

ok2panic.bsky.social•18 days ago

Exactly.

glengrambo.bsky.social•18 days ago

🤣 absolutely!

clinto.bsky.social•17 days ago

It follows @saskajanet on BlueSky...she's an influencer 😉

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

Ah, that explains it. “I hope she notices me!” 😂

rebeccagrambo.bsky.social•18 days ago

🎾

clinto.bsky.social•18 days ago

Yep - passes the @saskajanet tennis ball test with FLYING colors!!!

tthiking.bsky.social•17 days ago

a perfectly round borb! what is this bird?!

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

I can’t believe I didn’t identify them! It’s always when I mess something up that the post goes to a lot of people. 😅 It’s a Sanderling!

tthiking.bsky.social•16 days ago

oh! took a 2nd look and see their beak! sanderlings are so adorable from your photos and videos. i tell you - when things are tense, i pop over and look for all you nature photographers

gettoknownature.bsky.social•16 days ago

I keep diving into my archives to cheer myself up.

mercilesspepper.bsky.social•18 days ago

haha, nice try. I know a christmas ornament when I see one

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

Right? It doesn't look real!

fernmonkey.bsky.social•18 days ago

That is a beautiful roundboi, a perfect borb

#BurdButt
Thanks for the smile. Needed it!

birdsblooms.bsky.social•18 days ago

Perfection! 😍

mimibaltimore.bsky.social•16 days ago

Perfection in borb has been met. I bow!

amatsuki.bsky.social•18 days ago

I don’t see a bird! 🏐

lfillingham.bsky.social•18 days ago

I'm not sure ass shots are fair game.
Speaking as someone who would not want a shot of myself in a similar pose circulating on here.

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

I guess I should be getting signed waivers before posting 🤔

themoosh2025.bsky.social•18 days ago

That is adorable!!!

papito.bsky.social•18 days ago

Absolute Unit. Little dude is probably a legend amongst peers

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

"I have achieved peak round!"

tripupstairs.bsky.social•18 days ago

The zoom on those feathers 😍

radishdoodles.bsky.social•18 days ago

@aplante.com

perfectorb.bsky.social•18 days ago

I strive to be this orbital

ok2panic.bsky.social•18 days ago

😂

drsusan.bsky.social•18 days ago

BORB!!

betsycooley.bsky.social•17 days ago

Also, the design of the feathers and the earth tone shades are really pretty, in addition to the perfect roundness!

gettoknownature.bsky.social•16 days ago

The light was really beautiful that winter day!

betsycooley.bsky.social•16 days ago

It was a great photo and really did justice to that beautiful little borb!

gettoknownature.bsky.social•16 days ago

Thank you!

betsycooley.bsky.social•17 days ago

What a lovely, round borb!

queengwenevere.bsky.social•18 days ago

A near perfect borb 💙

timbert.bsky.social•17 days ago

More proof of what I have always said: sometimes the backside of birds is more interesting as the front!

marnidarr.bsky.social•18 days ago

#BorbBirdButt 😍

dylanburgess.bsky.social•18 days ago

Nice angle 😉

gwen4braves.bsky.social•18 days ago

Why, thank you! I love this! 🤩

ellyrieve-lvk.co.uk•18 days ago

this is well and truly one very round borb

shademar.bsky.social•18 days ago

I never realized Borbs bud like yeast!

watchinthesky.bsky.social•18 days ago

So round Janet didn’t feel the need to confirm???

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

I think she’s at work. 😅 But also I think this roundness speaks for itself!

watchinthesky.bsky.social•18 days ago

Oh, it definitely does!

czoernie.bsky.social•17 days ago

That's actually a tennis ball covered in feathers.

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

I believe you may be correct

czoernie.bsky.social•17 days ago

😂

betsycooley.bsky.social•17 days ago

Did you see the post where someone photoshopped a tennis ball on top of the feathers, to show just how round it is!!!

czoernie.bsky.social•17 days ago

Yes! It cracked me up! 😂

kittyvons.bsky.social•18 days ago

I just posted a video of my 1 as a kitten bc we all need some help through cute anything. So thanks for the flying light bulb.

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

You’re welcome. And your kitten video is cute!

saskajanet.bsky.social•18 days ago

I knew before I got out the tennis ball. Borb perfection!

gettoknownature.bsky.social•17 days ago

Thank you for the tennis ball stamp of approval!

saskajanet.bsky.social•17 days ago

It was definitely not needed since bird is obviously a sphere, but I just couldn't resist. It was so SATISFYING to feel the geometric perfection 🤣

wendithajune.bsky.social•17 days ago

Sir Mix-a-lot in the house: I like big butts and I cannot lie. Those other birdies can't deny...

ponyco.bsky.social•17 days ago

betsycooley.bsky.social•17 days ago

Wonderful test, Janet!

watchinthesky.bsky.social•18 days ago

There we have it!!

jeope.bsky.social•18 days ago

A total eclipse!

saskajanet.bsky.social•18 days ago

😂

frwildflowers.bsky.social•18 days ago

I can see you’ve done this before. 👍

saskajanet.bsky.social•17 days ago

It's true

ragle.bsky.social•18 days ago

I seriously thought that was one of those etched glass orbs with a backlight.

gettoknownature.bsky.social•18 days ago

Right? It does not look like a real bird

tchurchillart.bsky.social•17 days ago

That is the cutest bird butt ever. 10/10

bettybarcode.bsky.social•17 days ago

Truly excellent avian spheroid!

kathyfetter.bsky.social•18 days ago

I love how the light illuminates these round little guy’s feathers!

chrispyapple.bsky.social•17 days ago

Can confirm with certainty that this is one round birb!
