Another duckling on the park fish pond, covered in #WaterDroplets #BirdOfTheDay #Norwich All eleven of these ducklings continue to thrive, despite no adult female being on the scene!

The chives are looking beautiful in the garden this week. They’re such a good value herb - for your salads, and the bees’ snacks! #Flowers #Nature

Beautiful Morston in North #Norfolk I always hear many birds here, but they are expert at hiding! It is from here that you can book a boat trip to see the seals at Blakeney Point.

Good late afternoon from Ireland. Going to give Rob a hand with #BirdOfTheDay for a while. Hope everyone is well. I know it’s Mother’s Day in lots of countries. Wishing all you mums a great day and thinking particularly of those that have lost their mothers.🙏🙏 #Paridae #birds #photography #ECK

Swainson's Thrush (Catharus ustulatus) in a native Beautyberry shrub (Callicarpa americana) for #BirdoftheDay theme #Dappled #birds #nativeplants #Florida #naturephotography

I’ve been a bit reticent about posting this, but I can promise that the pigeon didn’t suffer as it flew into the window at speed, while flying off and so died instantly. It was an incredible thing to see a sparrow hawk so close to us in the garden though! #Dappled #BirdOfTheDay

Bit late today, but my #BirdOfTheDay #Parenthood contribution! #Norwich

#BirdOfTheDay #BestOfTheMonth Local park duckling.

Sharing one of my most loved possessions for #BirdOfTheDay #BeautyInBrown It’s by a local artist called Jerry Waide, who sadly died a few years ago. I fell in love with it instantly. The cobwebs shimmer in the right light too. The wren - my very favourite bird!

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WellTimed, any bird captured in an interesting moment. A beautiful dove showing off the white markings on its wings Patagioenas picazuro 🇧🇷 Pomba-asa-branca 🇬🇧 Picazuro Pigeon #birds #birdsoftheworld #nature #naturelovers #NaturalBeauty #Birding #WildlifePhotography

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #CamoOrContrast, birds that blend in or stand out in their surroundings. @simmcewen.bsky.social

I took this photo of some of the ducklings feeding on the fish pond at the park today. With the brown & yellow ducklings, the red of the lily pads, the yellowing leaves and the blue sky reflecting in the water, I thought the mix of colours was rather beautiful! #Birds #Nature #Norwich #BirdOfTheDay

I’ve only got three pictures that fulfill the #BirdOfTheDay #DucksOutOfWater theme. They are all of this female mallard I took whilst I was on a boat trip on the #Norfolk Broads. I’ve posted 2 of them before. This is the third!

#SmallBirdSaturday #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Woodland , birds you might find in woodlands near you. The alt is #juveniles any young bird captures. @balail.bsky.social

I’ve never managed to take a decent picture of a woodland bird, in a woodland, so I submit this fledgling great tit in the garden instead! #Woodland #BirdOfTheDay #Fledglings #Birds

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BirdButt, birds showing off the rear end to the photographer. I always want to get an image of a bird in flight, but maybe I should be more specific. (Long-eared owl near Minneapolis) #photography #owl #wildlife

#BirdOfTheDay #ManMadePerch This made me chuckle yesterday. The gull looked right at me while a pigeon photo-bombed the picture! #Norwich #Gulls #Pigeons

So chuffed! Bernard came back last night! He’s a hedgehog who had terrible ringworm all over his nose, but was fixed by a hedgehog rescue lady. He was marked and then re-released into our garden last summer, but soon disappeared. Now he’s back and looking really well! #Hedgehogs #Nature #Norwich

A better sunset at the #bluebells tonight - this time at Dockey Wood, part of Ashridge National Trust, not far from me. The double sun stars remind me of the Pink Floyd song "Two Suns in the Sunset" - I hope it's not a bad omen... 😬 #CanonR5markII #Berkhamsted #LocalPhotography

Sometimes the Cormorant is black in colour. At other times, brown or with a hint of indigo. If lucky, you will see all of these colours at the same time. Then, there is the structure of the feathers. A cormorant. #UKWildlife #BirdOfTheDay #Feathers #Birds #Photography #ECK #WildlifePhotography
