[Theme] Show Birds

[Bent Hjarbo]

I spent the first two days of this week hoping to catch murmurations of Starlings at Ham Wall nature reserve in Somerset, UK

I finally did see some, but the first day was largely fruitless for photo opportunities....
...apart from a few times, such as when this Jay flew right in front of me!
I had barely enough time to frame and press the shutter, much less to check the exposure (sadly, overexposed)

One shot came out a little better than the others though

Very nice

Like much of Europe, Worcester in the UK has seen flooding.
The River Severn there is usually full of Swans.
When their habitat gets disrupted, they start to take over the town!

Tawny Owl relaxing - probably the female is lying on their eggs further down in the hollow tree.

Thank you for these, Ken. In southern Ontario, the red-winged blackbird is the harbinger of spring.
