#Bird
House Sparrow from the garden in some nice evening light. Always nice to see them. They may not be the most colourful of birds but they are still beautiful in my opinion. #house #sparrow #bird #birdlovers #rspb #garden #nature #naturelovers #wildlife #wildlifelovers #cornwall #photography

One of the things that has made our place so much better is ....
a #bird feeder !
It's just amazingly fun to see all these little birds every day.

This #KiltPin features pressed glass beads with an etched #bird design, along with green and red glass and twisted gold-plated tube beads. In the center, a gold-plated feather charm. The colors would be great for summer, fall, or winter. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1243063990/bird-chandelier-beaded-kilt-pin?click_key=5ee483fc4698e1535e595c296a82b378c7d3a829%3A1243063990&click_sum=aebcb212&ref=shop_home_feat_3 #jewelry #handmade

After having eluded me for months I was finally able to photograph a Green Woodpecker again! Always a delight to see them :-)
I believe this to be a male due to the red stripe below the eye.

Saw this duck on my walk today — is this just a regular mallard? Male during moult? Juvenile?
The really bright-yellow beak caught my attention.

In a place like an aviary family trees can get hard to figure out, especially if foxes are known to find their way in. Anyway her macaws relatives were reassuring her as I painted, that she’ll eventually find a good partner that looks just like her.

Grauwe Klauwier - Red-backed Shrike
Ik was op zoek naar de Grijze wouw die hier gesignaleerd was maar die vogel was gevlogen. Dit mannetje Grauwe Klauwier maakte alles goed. Als je goed kijkt zie je dat ie net een prooi heeft gevangen.

One of the artificial lakes here has been drained, presumably to have it cleaned.
There's tonnes of trash and even some shopping carts at the bottom of it. One of the local coots seems to like one of the carts and made its nest on top of it.
Anyway, I did not expect there to be any other kinds wildlife there at the moment - but it seems as if the Black-Headed Gulls love this very shallow lake with lots of dirt islands in it!
So I went there yesterday evening and tried my hand at some flight shots. I'm still pretty bad at it, but I got a few that are okay.

I thought I would never see you again.
But each day you visit my world.
In the sweet song of the birds you whisper.
Every sunrise is a reminder of your light.
The gentle wind caresses me and we dance.
And each night the stars shine with your love...

I was playing a game and heard a lot of loud cawing outside that sounded a bit "off", i.e. not like the cawing of the regular crows.
Therefore, I decided to look outside and saw this rook perched on a cable right next to my window!
Its beak is probably slightly open because of the heat. If I remember correctly, this is how bird's try to dissipate heat (their form of "panting", I guess) since they cannot sweat.

It’s Norma, and she’s started trimming my nails for me. She patiently moves along from finger to finger. She has learned what hurts and what doesn’t hurt. And she listens for me to say ‘careful’ and she backs up. Pretty amazing little creature! And she takes such good care of me! I’m pretty darned lucky! #pets #pet #birds #bird

It should be realistic but I feel something slightly went wrong.
I found photos of this #bird described as Himantopus mexicanus.

It's not often you come face to face with a giant bird made almost entirely of plastic cutlery and wooden barbecue sticks.
From an art exhibit at Brighton Fringe a few years ago.
I usually follow back, and really appreciate and often follow those that boost/likes.


I've had such an amazing day! I've sold 13 massively large prints! I've made more today than I did last month 30 days of print sales. Food is secured for the next 4 months. Life is good. So here is a fun pelican to make YOU smile. :)

Birds have been scarce around here as of late, maybe because of the good weather and the rather large amount of people that are out and about.
So here's a blackbird I saw chilling on an old and cut off tree trunk. Not a "special" bird but they're nice regardless! :-)

Not my favourite photo, but one of my favourite birds — the Great Spotted Woodpecker!
This is a male one as can be seen by the red patch at the back of his head. Females' heads are completely black.
They have a very cute "kik" type of call.

They're one of the most talented singers around here and also one of the most (if not the most) commonly seen bird as well. @amselfreund has a lot of recordings of their songs on his account if you're interested! 🙂

A falcon mid-flight at the Adlerwarte Berlebeck (a center for birds of prey / falconry) in Detmold, Germany.
Unfortunately I was too busy trying to get some in-flight shots that I didn't listen to what the actual species was. Maybe someone has an idea what it could be! I just remember it being some type of falcon (Falke). Really fast bird!
