This guy just landed on a stump of an old tree in my backyard. Then he posed for me . I think he is a Cooper's hawk.

Stu mowed the leaves into a large pile in the backyard and Shizandra walked through them. Her legs were surrounded by leaves.
With the temperatures rising in Sydney today, the bees are feeling the heat. I think they are preparing to swarm.
Much better than a peeping tom, this tom turkey was caught strolling across the backyard in a light, early springtime snowfall pretty much like he owned the place, which of course he does. We share the acreage at the homestead here with all sorts of creatures because, after all, they were here long before we came along. We are the invaders, the last ones in (so far), and maybe even the interlopers, depending on your point of view.
Turkeys, toms and hens, are frequent passersby on the backyard property and, usually, they come in a flock of 7-10 birds who live and roost in local trees just up the lane. They generally squawk to announce their arrival, lest they sneak up on something that would rather not be interrupted. Very thoughtful neighbors, the birds. Among the best actually, although it is certainly a close competition.
Three exposures with light-painting from my headlamp, 4 hours of thirty second exposures with my Canon Fisheye 8-15mm f/4L. Processed using StarStax software. The corn adds a nice touch in my back yard. #heavenonearth visit me on the web www.johnbeatty.photos
Most of the time I stay at home and I will find any possible subject like this little flowers in my backyard.
I try converting it to B&W and I like B&W.
Your comments are much appreciated.
This photo is literally a flower in the backyard of the townhouse that we used to rent out. It was taken in June of 2021. I can't remember why I was wandering back there, as there isn't much except for weeds and blackberry bushes. Regardless, I saw these tiny little flowers and loved the texture on them. I grabbed my camera gear and started shooting. I think I took a few thousand photos of these little guys but all of them were pretty boring. For some unknown reason I decided to place my camera in the middle of a tall set of weeds and shoot through them. Viola! This gave me the bokeh, the texture, and the isolation that I wanted. Of course, I took a focus stack and this one ended up being about 39 photos from the front of the pedals to the back of them. Just another simple flower photo so I hope you enjoy!

Every time it snows I get this view right out the back of my house. Definitely getting more of this guy.
Largely ignored because of it’s proximity to me, I’m finding with a simple shift in mindset that there is plenty of interesting things near to me than previously considered.

Not sure what type of hawk this is but he was just hanging out in our backyard the other day. It is poor quality pic b/c I took it through the back door and the screen b/c I did not want to scare him off.

This male Rufous Hummingbird has ruled the backyard all summer chasing birds of all sizes on their way. Some take heed while others just ignore him! He is gorgeous out in the sun but rarely do we see him as when we are outside as he retreats to sit in the shade of one of the big spruce trees guarding his prized feeder. So it was time to set up the flash and take pictures which he didn't seem to mind at all! Eventually I will get him out in out in the sun............. maybe?
The Grackles seemed even more agitated today than usual after the rain stopped. All that posturing made for some tense moments at the Goodie Bowl, even though the contents had to be a little soggy.
All that drama also made for some interesting bird watching and made me grab my camera, too.
