Apt day to get my first Mallard ducklings of the year on South Walney, 3 of the 11 in this brood.
#birds #BirdsOfMastodon #nature #wildlife #darktable
Three Mallard duckling spaced across the frame, seen through the vegetation at the edge of a pool, the leftmost one has a raised head, whilst centre and right have their heads in the normal position. They are reflected in the still water towards the camera, as their wakes spread out behind them in the blue water.

My fave woodpecker, the Green Woodpecker.

Saw a pair today grabbing insects from the short trees and shrubs.

Mood : Monday morning
#BirdsOfMastodon
Male Red-winged Black bird (black feathers with tiny white specks and orange-y shoulders) perched on a tiny branch ending with brown dry flowers. They are largely opening their bill to sing loudly. One eye is looking at the camera. Background is out of focus light blue sky with branches bearing light green buds.

Eine Inkaseeschwalbe (Larosterna inca) steht direkt vor dem Betrachter und wendet ihm den Kopf zu. Der Schnabel ist leicht geöffnet. Die Inkaseeschwalbe ist an ihrem schiefergrauen Federkleid, den nach außen gebogenen weißen 5 cm langen Federbüscheln am Schnabelgrund, dem weißen Federrand an den Flügeln sowie am knallroten Schnabel mit gelben Mundwinkeln und den knallroten Füßen zu erkennen. Sie ist 39–42 cm lang und etwa 190 g schwer.
Wie zuvor, aber man sieht die rechte Seite des Kopfes.

this purple gallinule was at Hughe's Hollow today, in Maryland.

VERY rare sight, and he was so close!

#BirdsOfMastodon #birder #birbs
a colorful bird which is about chicken sized, but with long yellow "good for swamps" legs, wide feet, and a candy-corn looking orange and yellow beak. Purple / teal / blue on the breast. never seen one, and it was less than an hour away!
this was the first image I snapped of our rare friend (and very rare in Maryland!) I ended up taking thousands of images, but I haven't gone through them yet! profile view of his orange and yellow-tipped beak, poking out from some reeds in his comfortable happy place (a swampy environment) however he's a bit off on lattitude.

Ich glaube, da hat jemand vor, sich mit fremden Federn zu schmücken.
Euch einen schönen #Donnerstag.
#Fotografie #Photography #Vögel #Birds #BirdsOfMastodon
Ein Australischer Zebrafink (Taeniopygia castanotis) sitzt frontal vor dem Betrachter auf einem Ast. In seinem Schnabel hält er eine große weiße Feder an ihrem Kiel. Der wild lebende Zebrafink wird bis zu elf Zentimeter lang und rund 10 Gramm schwer. Das Männchen hat ein schmales schwarzes Brustband, einen rotbraunen Wangenfleck, rotbraune Flanken mit runden oder ovalen weißen Punkten und einen besonders intensiv roten Schnabel. Die Kehle zeigt die typische Zebrazeichnung bis unter den Schnabel. Die Schwanzfedern sind schwarz und werden durch die schwarz-weiß gebänderten Oberschwanzdecken größtenteils überdeckt.

While on a bird tour this weekend, a lone killdeer kept pacing back and forth in front of a couple of the vehicles. Eventually, it realized it could get closer.

Back to its nest.

#CarsonLakeAndPastureWMA #ChurchillCounty #Nevada #Birds #Birding #BirdWatching #Wildlife #NaturePhotography #WildlifePhotography #BirdPhotography #BirdsOfMastodon #Killdeer
A small killdeer stands protectively over three small eggs. The large plover, with its white belly and brown back and distinctive white and black neck rings, watches the audience with its red ringed eye. The three small eggs blend into the gravel covered ground, the darkly speckled grey shell nearly invisible.

Ja, #moin, ihr Schnucklettys!
Ich habe gestern im #BotanischerGartenRostock diesen svaggy #Grünspecht fotografiert. Ich soll euch von ihm einen naisen Tach wünschen (hat er mir zugemorst…)!☝️
[Außerdem wollte der an der #Birke rumballern. #Birken sind ja urst meine Lieblingsbäums. Wollte ich noch dazu euch wissen lassen.]

Ein Birkenstamm, an dem in der Sonne von Betrachtungsperspektive aus links ein Grünspecht klammert. Der Specht hat grünes Vogelfell (a.k.a. Gefieder), einen hellen Bauch und Gesicht, eine schwarze Gesichtsmaske, einen roten Hut (sieht aus wie 'ne Kappe oder ein Iro) und er ist unten so gepunktet rennflaggenmäßig an seinen Stützschwanzfedern an der Seite. Er sieht aus, als ob er gleich kloppbereit ist. Sonst sieht man Birkenzweiglein und im Hintergrund andere Birken. Ich mag Birken ja urst. Spechte aber auch.

A couple of weeks ago I had a beautiful foggy morning to shoot waterfowl and I am very happy with the way this shot turned out! I hope you like it as much as I do.

Vertical format. The water line is about 1/5 from the top. On the water line is a lone silhouetted duck on the left and facing right. There is a lot of fog on the water and above it is pitch black. Below the duck is more fog blending into a reflection of the trees in the background with the golden glow of sunrise extending to the bottom.

Todays waddle was magic. It started slow and bit colder than expected, but then I spotted
My first bluethroat of the season. And this fellow was in a good singing mood, flying around. I sat down and waited, until he popped up in bush behind me singing. 😍

Hallo kleine #MittwochsMeise. Du brauchst dich nicht verstecken. Es weiß doch so und so jeder, daß du eine von meinen bist.
Euch einen schönen #Mittwoch.
#Fotografie #Photography #Vögel #Birds #BirdsOfMastodon
Eine Kohlmeise (Parus major) im Geäst eines kahlen Obstbaums. Sie sitzt dem Beobachter frontal gegenüber, wird aber durch Zweige vor ihr teilweise verdeckt. Der Vogel hat einen kurzen schwarzen Schnabel. Die Federn am Kopf sind schwarz und an den Wangen und Ohrdecken weiß. Der Rücken erscheint grünlich, Brust und Bauch gelb. Der untere Rücken, die Flügeldecken und der Schwanz sind blaugrau. In der Mitte der Unterseite des Rumpfes befindet sich ein schwarzer Längsstrich.

Male Greenfinch from the garden this morning.
#birds #BirdsOfMastodon #nature #wildlife #darktable
A male Greenfinch seemingly hanging in flight, heading from right to left of frame. The wings are fully spread below the body on the down stroke with the closest wing showing detail of the colour change from grey with some yellow edges of the primaries through to the greener tones of forewing and back. The background is a blurred diffuse beige that tends toward green at the lower left.

Ich habe mir vorgenommen, geradlinig auf das nächste Wochenende zuzusteuern.
Ach Mist, da muß ich ja arbeiten.

Ein Graureiher (Ardea cinerea) seitlich im Flug aufgenommen. Die Flügel sind halb nach oben gestreckt und werfen einen Schatten auf einen großen Teil des Rumpfes. Der Kopf ist an den Körper zurückgezogen; die Beine sind gerade nach hinten gestreckt. Das Gefieder des Graureihers ist auf Stirn und Oberkopf weiß, am Hals grauweiß und auf dem Rücken aschgrau mit weißen Bändern. Er hat schwarze Augenstreifen sowie drei lange schwarze Schopffedern, die einen Federbusch bilden, eine dreifache schwarze Fleckenreihe am Vorderhals sowie schwarze Schwingen. Der lange Schnabel ist gelblich und geht auf dem Schnabelfirst ins Bräunliche über. Die Wachshaut ist gelb und wird Richtung Auge grünlich. Die drei langen Vorderzehen sind am Stelzenbein weit auseinander gespreizt und verhindern das Einsinken in den weichen Untergrund.

It's been a rough week, and it's only Tuesday afternoon. How about a pretty picture of a Canada Goose from Thursday's sunset down at the ol' Benstein Boardwalk?

March 13, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan.

This season has been tough for shooting waterfowl. Since November I have been plagued by boaters, kayakers, police, droughts, ice and mud like quicksand but didn’t give up. LOL. I got this shot of a Female Common Merganser on Tuesday and I really like it. I hope you do too!

Wide frame. Female Common Merganser is swimming in the lower third from the right to left into the frame with its eye roughly halfway into the frame horizontally. The background is glowing golden with gold bokeh balls. There is a soft reflection on the water. The merganser has a pinkish bill, bronze head, white neck and silver back.

A Crimson Rosella, quite fascinated by something on the ground

#BirdsOfMastodon #Birds #Rosella #NaturePhotography
A startlingly red bird, with semicircles of black on its back feathers, and bright blue on its wings, tail, and below its beak. It perches on a thin twig, bent forward to look down at something below it on the ground

I was down in Florida for a few days to escape the cold weather. There were so many burrowing owls there, but it's really difficult to get a clean shot due to buildings, cars, fences, etc... I do like the way this one turned out though.

Inspired by the great classical work "Lark Ascending" by Ralph Vaughan Williams, I call this photo "Woodpecker Ascending". Female downy woodpecker, composite of 4 images. Clifton, Virginia, USA 21NOV2024 #birds #BirdPhotogaphy #BirdsOfMastodon #naturephotography #Nikon #NikonZ8
A composite showing the same black and white woodpecker but in 4 different positions overlayed in a single image. At bottom right it is perching on a branch looking up and to the left. Just to the left and up the bird is in flight with its wings at about 45 degree angles. Further up and to the left, the bird has its wings spread all the way wide, and finally, furthest to the left near the top the bird has its wings tucked all the way back against its body.

An average adult pelican pouch can carry up to 11 liters/3 gallons of water or up to 11 kg/24 pounds of fish, more than their stomach. So they’re kind of lunch boxes with wings. #birds #birdsofmastodon #nature #ecology #wildlife #photography #NotMyPersonalPhoto #biology #sunset

Today is kingfisher day. Started with seeing two flying around with spring in their head. Later during the waddle I saw three chatting.
