Every day on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, we share a photo of the day — a superb image from the more than 22,000 pictures in our Reader Galleries. Our selections from the second half of May 2022 includes several species featured on the World Migratory Bird Day poster, a stunning image of a pair of Green Jays, and an out-of-range White-faced Ibis. Enjoy!
