I Gotta Feeling, Someone's Watching Me 🎶I don't know why I kept this image. The birds are completely out of focus, but they are arranged in-line like a council of elders looking down on me. What are, are pigeons waiting for me to go inside so that they can hit the feeder.

"The scene captures a natural setting, with a focus on a sturdy tree branch. Several birds are perched on this thick arched branch, their silhouettes outlined against the bright blue sky. The foliage surrounding the birds is dense, with an abundance of leaves providing cover and shade.</p><p>Unfortunately, due to the backlighting and the birds’ positioning, it’s challenging to discern specific species or plumage details. However, we can appreciate the collective presence of these avian visitors, showcasing their social behavior and habitat preferences.</p><p>In summary, this image portrays a serene moment in the avian world—a congregation of birds seeking refuge on a sunlit branch, framed by the vibrant sky.

https://ecoevo.social/@BathNature/112400607200943512 BathNature@ecoevo.social - My latest #Robin friend, Bramble. Bramble is just over 5 weeks old & is now fully independent. For now, Bramble is hanging around close to the nest site, but will shortly begin to wander further afield in search of a territory. Bramble is now adept at catching food, including flies & fast-moving spiders, so stands a good chance of survival.

They're prepping to migrate back north for nesting. I don't welcome them back because they'll eat Monarch butterflies in their courting rituals where males feed them to the desired females.

Wind Rider: The Majestic Flight of a KiteCharlie and I were sitting outside this morning. I was drinking coffee, watching for birds, and taking care of some business on my phone. Suddenly, dozens of Mississippi Kites (ctinia mississippiensis) appeared in the sky, riding the thermals, circling, slowly moving south or east. They were pretty high, and a few passed over, I was able to get a couple of recognizable photos so that I identified the birds.

I don't post all of the photos that I post here to my Pixels gallery, but I post the photos I like best. Some don't make the cut. I most likely will not post this one to the gallery. I usually wait a couple of days to see how I feel about it then.

"A single Mississippi kite is captured in mid-flight against a pale sky. Its wings are fully spread, displaying an impressive wingspan. The detailed feathers create a natural gradient effect, with varying shades of brown and grey. The kite’s compact body and focused eyes give it an intense look as it soars effortlessly, embodying grace and freedom. The photo is credited to “© Swede's Photographs.” - Copilot
"The image predominantly features a clear, expansive sky as the background. Against this canvas, multiple Mississippi kites are visible, scattered across the sky. These elegant birds are captured in mid-flight, their wings spread out wide. Each kite occupies a different altitude and angle, creating a dynamic view of their soaring motion. The overall mood of the image is serene and natural, as if the birds are dancing with the wind. " - Copilot

https://mastodonapp.uk/@BjornIdle/111724098062692622 BjornIdle@mastodonapp.uk - NZ Robins are not seemingly scared of people. This one swooped down next to my foot (30cm or 1' away) and poked around in the grass for insects.

A natural model, it even stood still and looked right at the camera while I took its photo. Yes, that's me reflected in its eye, crouched down with my camera. I could probably have got a macro shot...
