Love the way these magical creatures slowly apparate from within the vegetation as the sun slowly disappears. Exactly like magic. You don't see anything and the next moment, you see them staring straight at you with their bloodshot eyes ;-) #bird #photography #BirdPhotography

Sparrow and Blue Sky

This is a chipping sparrow (Spizella passerina) one of the species that I photograph the most.

I've had several inquiries about how to get a print of some my photographs. This is a hobby for me, so I haven't been equipped to handle those requests. But I enjoy what I'm doing and want to share my photographs.

So, I set up an account and website with pixels. My website is:

swede1952-photographs.pixels.com

If you want a print of one of my photographs, you can get it there, If I haven't loaded it, let me know which one it is, and I'll gladly load it there for you.

"The image shows a sparrow perched on a tree branch. The bird has a light brown and white plumage with a distinctive reddish-brown streak on its head. The background is a clear blue sky, and the branches of the tree are visible around the bird. The bird appears to be calmly resting on the branch, and the photograph captures the details of its feathers and the texture of the tree bark. The image is interesting because it highlights the natural beauty of the bird and its surroundings, showcasing a moment of tranquility in nature. The photograph is signed with "© Swede's Photographs" in the bottom right corner." - Copilot

"The image shows a close-up of a male house finch. The bird has a distinctive red coloration on its head and chest, with brown and white streaks on its wings and body. The background is a blurred green, making the bird stand out prominently. The finch's conical beak is closed, and its toes and talons are visible, spread wide above a black metal object on which the bird is about to land on. The details capture the texture of the bird's feathers and the intensity of its gaze. The photograph is signed "© Swede's Photographs" in the bottom right corner." - Copilot with edits


Quietly taking photos of mushrooms in the lawn & a noise behind me makes me realise one of our regular wee birdies has got fed up waiting for me to go & has started lunch. I could quietly wait out there with my camera trained on the feeder for ages & they will stay away. Apparently I'm less threatening when examining the grass.

A photo of a small bird, possibly a coal tit, something like that anyway, flying to a bird feeder full of seeds. It's coming into land, beak open, wings blurred and flapping, looking like its going in for a ferocious attack. To be fair I'm sometimes like that with a late lunch too.


Some days you just need to say "f*ck it" and take your falcon grocery shopping.

Blue Jay

Here is a photo of a blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) that I took in October 2023. I haven't seen any of these birds in a few weeks, I know that they are still around though. Perhaps they are deeper in the forest. My guess I'll see them more when it starts getting really cold, especially it snows. Yes, it occasionally snows in Louisiana.

"The oldest known wild, banded Blue Jay was at least 26 years, 11 months old when it was found dead after being caught in fishing gear. It had been banded in the Newfoundland/Labrador/St. Pierre et Miquelon area in 1989 and was found there in 2016." - allaboutbirds.org

This blue jay perches on a black metal shepherd's hook with its back facing the camera. The bird has its head turned towards the camera obviously aware that I'm there.  Its black beak has the shape of a pointed wedge.  There is a black mark at the base of the beak shaped like a wide letter "H."  The crest on top of its head is flattened and blue, but its face is white with black markings.  Its back and wings are blue, and the flight feathers are elaborately decorated with checkers of blue, white, and black.  Its tail feathers are blue with horizontal black stripes at mostly even intervals, its breast is white, and its legs and feet are gray.

"Large, crested songbird with broad, rounded tail. Blue Jays are smaller than crows, larger than robins. White or light gray underneath, various shades of blue, black, and white above." - allaboutbirds.org


"I mean, that cat has the smelliest butt ... why are looking so worried. He's not here. Right? Right?"
