Silvereye, Zosterops lateralis, a common small insectivore of the Canberra region. Common or not, they're still beautiful - and I've even had the privilege of holding one in my hand - when it flew into a window and was stunned. I held its immaculate little presence in my hand, protecting it from harm (and pets) until it recovered sufficiently to fly off. Wonderful.

#Poetry #Birds
'The Heron', by Paul Farley One of the most begrudging avian take-offs is the heron's 'fucking hell, al right, all right, I'll go to the garage for your fucking fags' cranky departure, though once they're up their flight can be extravagant. I watched one big spender climb the thermal staircase, a calorific water spout of frogs and sticklebacks, the undercarriage down and trailing. Seen from antiquity you gain the Icarus thing; seen from my childhood that cursing man sets out for Superkings, though the heron cares for neither as it struggles into its wings then soars sunwards and shrugs its huge overcoat across the earth.

"An evening
starred with starlings...
Were that wordplay
it also brings out
truth,
so blackly twittering,
an unheard-of-ness
in the labyrinth.

It must
be Autumn: a furrowing
of the brow,
the birdcloud
rising
from fouled treetops

to take
northwards, an
incomprehensible direction."

'Birdcloud', by John Hartley Williams

(In past centuries it was believed that migrating birds would winter on the moon)

"There is no leaving for them
in such shifts south,

best weather is their territory,
their existence its insects

swallowed like distance.
For us, just a surging

of sky-piercing shapes,
pointed birds in search of moon-food,

and the weighty northern day
bereft. But from these beliefs

and from their visiting wings’
return were angels made."

'The Nowhere Birds', by Caitriona O'Reilly

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. 😍

#GutenMorgen Fediland. ☕
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.

"The owl wafts home with a mouse in its beak.
The moon is stunningly bright in the high sky.
Such a gold stone, such a brilliant hard light.
Such large round eyes of the owl among the trees.
All seems immortal but for the dangling mouse,
an old hurt string among the harmony
of the masterful and jewelled orchestra
which shows no waste soundlessly playing on."

'The Nightingale Near The Lawn', by Harold Monro

@handmade_ghost bet I can guess your favourite line 😉
#Poetry #Nature #Birds
Here is the soundles cypress on the lawn: It listens, listens. Taller trees beyond Listen. The moon at the unruffled pond Stares. And you sing, you sing. That star-enchanted song falls through the air From lawn to lawn down terraces of sound, Darts in white arrows on the shadowed ground; While all the night you sing. My dreams are flowers to which you are a bee, As all night long I listen, and my brain Receives your song, then loses it again In moonlight on the lawn. Now is your voice a marble high and white, Then like a mist on fields of paradise; Now is a raging fire, then is like ice; Then breaks, and it is dawn.

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.
Habt einen schönen #Montag. Kommt gut in und durch die neue Woche.

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.

Another clue that the California towhees are not tree birds… this one was so unstable looking. Not helped by choosing a bud rather than a branch for one foot, and different branches for each foot too.

I did post this image a long time ago but I came across it again. The image shows a large fat tube on a wire. About seven birds hanging around waiting for their turn to eat. Very popular food.

New addition! 🌍 Black crowned crane (Balearica pavonina) #AfricanBirds | #BlackCrownedCrane #BalearicaPavonina | #CrownedCranes #Cranes #CraneFamily 📷: Photo by ZeeCee🦜 #birdsoftheworld #birds
🌍 Black crowned crane (Balearica pavonina) The black crowned crane is a striking bird with a predominantly black body, highlighted by distinctive white wing patches and a golden crown of stiff feathers. They also display red and white cheek patches. These cranes are found across sub-Saharan Africa, favoring wetlands, grasslands, and savannas. They are often seen in pairs or flocks. Their behavior includes elaborate courtship dances, and they are known for their loud, booming calls. They forage for seeds, insects, and small vertebrates, and uniquely, they can roost in trees. Two subspecies are recognised. Conservation status: Vulnerable (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by ZeeCee via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/bird-crane-ornithology-species-6659337/ GBUD

This White-breasted Nuthatch was flitting about the yard this evening.
A small bird perched on a river birch branch. The bird is partially obscured by one of the many small branchlets. Blue sky behind the bird and branches.
The same bird on the top of a large limb in the black walnut tree. This is a side view of the bird showing his light-colored breast and stomach. The tree limb has furrowed bark and a good amount of small orange and gray lichens. Blue sky behind.

The grain of the wood, the glint from the beaten metal post cap, and the textures of the plumage of this double-crested cormorant all spoke to me and said "How about trying this as a B&W image?". So here you go. What do you think? Lake Fairfax Park, Reston, Virginia, USA 18-MAR-2025 #birds #birdphotography #naturephotography #photography
A monochrome image of a double-crested cormorant perching on top of a large wooden post on a pier. The post has a shiny beaten metal cap. The bird is half-turned away from the camera with its wings spread as if it was about to take off. [It did in fact take off moments later.]

diese jungen turmfalken in meiner unmittelbaren 'nachbarschaft' zu sehen (wortwörtlich, das ist das dach des nachbarhauses) hat mich sehr erfreut :)
ich hoffe sehr, dass sie auch dieses jahr wieder eine brut erfolgreich hier großziehen können.

2 junge braun-beige gemusterte falken sitzen auf einem gewellten ziegelroten und flechtenbewachsenen dach, an der kante, sie haben mich bemerkt, haben sich uns halb zugewandt und gucken direkt in die kamera. bis gerade eben waren es noch 3, einer ist aufgeschreckt. sie sind noch recht fluffig und etwas gedrungen, das ist wohl ihrer jugend geschuldet. im vordergrund stört ein katzennetz unscharf im bild.
