From yesterday. The Eurasian teal is one of our winter guests. This is the male. 🪶

Crested tits in the forest this morning. They’re about as hard to catch as the goldcrest. Busy little bodies. 🪶

#Pipit defending its nest from the female #cuckoo. 🪶

I’m the king of the world! 🪶 #Bluethroat

This would be a good one for the #Lunchtime too, but it was 6.15 in the morning. 🪶 #tern #visdiefje

I’m totally invisible. #BeardedReedling 🪶

🦉 Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia): This Owl photographed by Jay Spring in California looks like it had a busy night! #owl #owls #bird #birds #wildlife #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #california #usa #nature #birdphotography #bluesky

Predator and prey, captured in a single frame. Ferruginous Pygmy Owl – tiny but fierce – with its catch, a European robin. 🦉🪶 #birdphotography #owl #wildlifephotography #nature #birdsofprey #ferruginouspygmyowl @birdnote.bsky.social @mybirdcards.com @abcbirds.bsky.social @bci-journal.bsky.social

Alan’s theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #Lunchtime. I chose this hawfinch feeding its offspring. 🪶

You will buy mealworms. You will buy mealworms. #FestiveDailyRobin #ukbirds #birds

One of the sweetest birds I know, the long-tailed tit. 🪶

Shout shout, let it all out 🎶 🪶 #bluethroat

I think this might be my first time casually posting a photo of a Eurasian Bullfinch? It was quite dark, so the image turned out a bit noisy—but the bird itself was beautifully colored. 😊🪶 ISO6400😨…USOではありません（ダジャレやめい #nature #photography #animals #wildlife #EurasianBullfinch #ウソ #birds #野鳥

Yep, they’re at it again. 😡

#EuropeanGoldfinch 🪶

It would be nice to have a #sunrise like that again. Maybe tomorrow.

Yesterday I posted the raven, today it’s the #wolf. I live in the middle of wolf country, but I only ever saw one from afar. A load of photographers invaded the forest recently because of wolves. I heard from a friend it was just awful. The area was finally declared off limits to humans. #mammals

Well, it is #TwosDay and #YearOfTheKestrel in the Netherlands, so how about two #kestrels? 🪶

#HolidayRobin #EuropeanRobin 🪶

#buzzard #buteobuteo #buizerd 🪶

I am surrounded by forest and wetlands, so fat chance of a bird on a #rock for Alan’s #BirdOfTheDay. But I can provide an alternative #LongBeak on a tiny bird 😜. 🪶 #kingfisher #ijsvogel

A Red-tailed Hawk bringing a new stick to the nest.

A light dusting at Glencoe

The flying companions of the Dutch wolves, the #Raven. 🪶

I posted the male Lesser spotted woodpecker before. This is the female. They’re the size of a sparrow and lack the “red trousers” of their bigger cousins. 🪶 #KleineBonteSpecht

I still can’t find a dunnock for BirdOfTheDay so here’s a #HolidayRobin instead. #EuropeanRobin

They call me mellow yellow 🎶 #BlueHeadedWagtail 🪶

Tiny blue tit sitting on our sun shade. They often sit there to eat their seeds, it’s nice and quiet. 🪶

Fluffy #cygnet. 🪶 #MuteSwan

Now there’s a bird I’ve only seen once: the Lesser Whitethroat. 🪶 #Braamsluiper

Mum and baby #hawfinch. 🪶

#Kestrel having breakfast. 🪶

Whatchadoingdownthere? 🪶 #GreatSpottedWoodpecker male

And a Wren with mischief in mind. He’s the king of winter after all. 🪶 #EurasianWren #Winterkoninkje

Good morning peeps. “We solemny swear we’re up to no good”. Two Blue Tits amongst the whatchamacallits. 🪶

He’s had enough of our bull-shift hoomin time change constructs.😆 Good luck to all the pet parents out there…gonna be a rough couple of weeks! 🫠 #fallback #timechange #daylightsavings #chattycat #dinnertime #hangry

🤣🤣🤣 I’m not that bad. My significant other is 🤣🤣🤣

Sunday post. Spoonbills in flight. Andalusia Spain. #sunday #silentsunday #stunday #birds #nature #sky #clouds #photography

Fighting for “who gets the girl”. 🪶 #BlackTailedGodwits

I once said Long-tailed Tits might look cuter from afar — but this close-up proves cute is just cute 😊 🪶 世にこれだけシマエナガが溢れていてもやっぱりかわいい😍距離とか関係ないんや…💦 #nature #photography #animals #wildlife #Long-tailedTit #シマエナガ #birds #野鳥

I can’t find the pic I’m looking for Alan’s theme #underrated, but I found this bunch of baby Greylags. Not everyone likes geese, but I do. Even when they hiss at me to protect their family. So maybe they will fit the bill. The little one agrees. #BirdOfTheDay 🪶

#Bluethroat 🪶

Upside down Blue Tit. 🪶

Give us a kiss 💋 #mammals #RedDeer #edelhert
