Allows Edits? YesLast summer we had a throwdown on the birds in our backyard – appropriate because of the lock-down situation that confined most of us. The participation was good – a lot of gorgeous bird images were posted in the thread as well as the following threads with the same name.
I suggest that we start with a new thread where we left it last year.

Some really nice bird photos Patrick. Interesting how some of “your” birds look like “our” birds and some do not. The Rock Dove looks just like the ones around here. But the Robin looks completely different.

Thanks Elin. 🙂 Radial blur filter in ON1 Photo RAW. Also “Big Softy” vignette filter, added a little magenta with a color filter and a bit of dodging to lighten the birds face.

Allows Edits? YesToday it is the first day of summer, according to the old Nordic calendar. The day is celebrated as a national holiday with childrens parade etc, even though the weather is more often than not freezing and snowing. It is a tradition for people to wish each other “happy summer”. Today it is relatively warm but raining cats and dogs and the starlings are busy drying feathers. A few grebes have arrived at the lake but are quiet and taking it easy. This morning I saw a eurasian wigeon – a migrant rarely seen here in the SW of the country.

Two lovely bird photos to start the summer season , love the colours on the wigeon , that starling looks lively and lovely framing on it 🙂
My plan today is a visit to a local river , our weather today is very bright sunny day and hope to spot a dipper or little wren along the river bank hopefully the wooded areas can soften the harsh light a touch .. Have a lovely day whatever your doing and thanks for posting 🙂

There is a few kingfishers on a local river and again all i have seen is a flash of blue zooming past , i have been picking up tips on getting a shot of them i just need to get the time to put my plan to work.

I’e only ever caught the flash of a kingfisher, too. My partner often sees them when he’s fishing. Be good if you’re plan works out, and you get a shot! 🙂-

You have no idea how big these birds are until one flies by your window and lands in your pool. It turned into a game as I tried to get it to leave before fouling (excuse the pun) the water. Run here, swim there, back and forth for 10 minutes or so before it tired of the plot. My neighbours must have had a good chuckle. My nephew calls these Canadian Cobra Chickens.

Allows Edits? YesLol 🙂 First the duck and then this giant – makes one wonder what comes next – a Northern Gannet ? There must be some feature of your pool, apart from the water, that they find attractive. Great shot 🙂

Allows Edits? YesPlease forgive me as this is not a Yard bird , I got my bird but not the shot i want ( I’ll be back for that one ) i used up a whole weeks worth of fieldcraft to find the area it was using once i found a perch with what looked like bird dropping on the lower branches i sat it out , when it arrived it went to the branch in the image which was not the perch .. Crafty 🙂
Not a comp winner but it was my first kingfisher and felt well happy with my efforts Composition was hampered with the close branches behind the bird … ISO 2000 – 1/100 – 600mm -Handheld.

Allows Edits? Nothanks elin. it was diving in the water and popping out a few feet away from where it entered. that’s why this is a little bit out of focus. the next frame is in focus, but the water droplets lost the heart shaped pattern. as the tern came out of the water it would level itself and turn around to discard the water droplets. it was hard to see the turning movement while i watched because it was pretty quick. but luckily the camera caught it.

Allows Edits? YesLovely shot Tersha , they have such a tough beak for a little bird .. my yard has gone very quiet over the last few days in fact the last few days i have hardly heard any bird song .. I have a feeling the the adults are teaching the youngsters the necessities of survival right now added to that there is an abundance of food at this time of year.

YesThank you Elin , i have a pair that visit now and again and when i came home yesterday i spotted a a bird roughly the size of one of the doves laying dead in my garden when i went to look it was a young gull that must have only left the nest recently .. lots of plucked feathers on the grass so it could have been a sparrow hawk or kestrel that done the damage

ElinL, it looks like the bird is sitting in front of Click´s Pyramid, before the perpective correction.
I like the matching colors of the bird and the rusting Fence. (didn´t you have enough time during the lockdown to de-rust and paint? (Just kidding!) )

Allows Edits? YesThe horned grebe is a very territorial bird, which poses a problem to the peaceful mother ducks innocently swimming on the lake with their flock of ducklings. Of course they should know because the grebes have had their very well defined territories for several weeks now, but obviously they tend to forget. The grebe attacks are terrifying and split the families with the risk of the ducklings not finding their mothers again…..

Every day I try to remember to put out sugar water on our deck for the Tuis who come looking for it. Most days I remember. The sugar water is a great substitute for the nectar that they get from the flowers. We never tire of seeing them every day. They are very territorial, so quickly chase off other Tuis who come to feed – if our one sees them. You will see the white bundle of white hair that they all have at the front of their necks.

Ah, yes, Elin – sorry about that, must have been a “Senior moment”! Had noticed my error not long after the time that I could not edit, so meant to say something in a later post. Mischief ?, I guess so, a couple of times when I have been putting out their sugar water our regular Tui has swooped in just above my head to tell me that he was inpatient and to hurry.
Thanks for your comment too, Patrick. They only exist here in New Zealand/Aotearoa.

Here is our other favourite visitor, it is a Kereru (Maori word, the English version is Wood Pigeon, much more boring name!). I always say Kereru now. We love, what unfortunately are, the less frequent visits of this chap. He (she?) perches on our stand, attached to the glass balustrade. He ruffles his feathers up from his neck (impressive), then he does a number of hops, usually three, but sometimes more. Quite often he will then move our bell attached to the stand (but without any clapper) with his tail. What this ritual is about, we do not know. Perhaps it is the equivalent of me going to Iyengar Yoga? Still, it is a great spectacle! Magic!!

Allows Edits? YesSounds like a very interesting experiment – hopefully a success. Majestic to look at, – a certain distance is preferable. They attack anyone coming too close to their nest. We once rode just past one we didn´t know about and a parent went after us. The horses were not happy. Grateful that I had a helmet on.

YesSweet shot Tersha gorgeous birds , i don’t remember ever seeing any for myself in my area , the coloring on the mid section on the wings look so much like goldfinch , the feathers at the back of the head look like sparrow and the underside chest is like a song thrush pattern amazing what nature creates 🙂
