Die Amsel macht sich die Schwanzfederspitze nass, hüpft dann schnell auf den trockenen Rand. Ich mag diese Amsel.

The long-awaited third game in the space-based RTS series has already been delayed once, from late 2022 to the first half of 2023. Now Homeworld 3 has had its release delayed once again. #Homeworld3 #Blackbird https://www.neowin.net/news/homeworld-3-gets-delayed-once-again-this-time-to-february-2024/
This little feather ball ran over my foot while I was in contemplation mode..
Day made. ❤️🥰

Who’s ready for another round of #TipsoftheTrail?
Today I’m encouraging experimentation and while this can apply to all aspects of photography I want to highlight the importance of it in relation to composition.
Composition can be difficult, especially in wildlife photography where the subjects are moving quickly. However, while you may not be able to get the most perfect composition everytime, it is something you should experiment and have fun with.
I’ve ben doing this recently and have captured the following two photos.
1) Two #Yellowhammer birds almost symmetrical, one in focus, one not, sitting on a farm fence.
2) A singing #blackbird but extremely small in frame.
Neither are ‘typical’ wildlife shots but after getting the more usual composition-based images, I decided to experiment. I moved position, zoomed out and tried positioning the birds in different areas of the screen.
When I got home and reviewed my images, I was pleasantly surprised with these. They turned out even better than what I was hoping for.
So…in short, when it comes to composition…experiment and have fun. You never know what you might capture.

Red Tipped Blackbird trying to drive off a swan. Last week, the blackbirds made a Great Blue Heron leave. Today, two swans and some babies . The mom was off to the left and the blackbirds weren't interested. They were definitely interested in the big guy.

This #Blackbird posed too beautifully not to photograph.
As you can see in the back.... a blue sky.. so this was definitely not taken here in our wet Netherlands ☂
I was fortunate and enjoyed a few days of sun on the Spanish Coast near Alicante

Today’s #TipsfortheTrail is all about #eyes.
When photographing animals or birds - especially close up - it’s important to get the eye clear and sharp as this is what draws the viewer in and connects anyone looking at the image to the subject.
It can be a difficult thing to master although from what I’ve seen about the latest autofocus systems it’s been made a lot easier. However, if you are on an older system that does not have eye tracking it is an important skill to learn and one that will certainly help improve those images where you have a close up of an animal.
I was able to take this image of a blackbird with my #LumixG9 and it must be the most clear and sharp eye shot I’ve taken. It instantly draws me in!
Give it a go and let me know how you get on!

Puddle Jumping
Well more like plant to plant jumping really. This little female Red-wing Blackbird is jumping from plant to plant in the middle of the water in search of food as she goes along. Out of all the shots I got of her going to each one this is the only one in action that really looked any good.

I've been getting a stare from this fledgling - a baby blackbird I think - standing on really huge feet, at the foot of the hedge. Looks very vulnerable

Endlich habe ich sie auch mal mit der Videokamera erwischt und rangezoomt. 🤩
Ich komme mir hier vor wie Heinz Sielmann. 😂
I finally managed to get them on video and zoomed in. 🤩
Ein weiterer Tag, ein weiteres Foto. Man kann jetzt schon deutlich die Federn sehen. 😊
Another day, another picture. You can clearly see the feathers now. 😊
@wesgeorge that bird’s a wild ride for sure. I’m sure you’re aware of Bill Weaver’s story, but posting here just in case: http://www.chuckyeager.org/news/sr-71-disintegrated-pilot-free-fell-space-lived-tell/ #blackbird #sr71
Seit zwei Tagen gräbt Herr Amsel freundlicherweise Löcher in den Balkonkästen, so dass ich gleich einpflanzen kann, sobald es endlich wärmer wird.

Have opened the bedroom window to air the room. Am thankful that I am still able to hear the song of the blackbird.
Sadly accompanied by the honk of some gulls but beautiful nonetheless.

Saw Mr #Blackbird this morning racing along the top of the wall in his 'demented vicar' posture. Invariably makes me chuckle. Plus a single sparrow. Much, much milder. #Shropshire #ClimateDiary

Zoe is a Common Blackbird.
Zoe's song is a serene masterpiece.

Love blackbirds.
Such understated creatures.
A female blackbird breakfasting among the fallen leaves here on the sanctuary this morning.
Again - this is why we need to back off nature and leave her be.
Leave fallen leaves where they fall. They’re supposed to be where they fall.
They’re vital.

Remember when Microsoft tried, over and over again, to enclose the internet, first as a dial-up service, then as a series of garbage Windows-based Flash-alikes. Remember #Blackbird?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackbird_(online_platform)
But standard protocols exert powerful #NetworkEffects on corporations. When everyone is adhering to a standard, when everything can talk to everything else, then it's hard to lure users into a walled garden.
