I see lots of these blooming in all sorts of places now. People have become aware of how important these are to pollinators, especially the beloved Monarch butterfly, so they are treated differently than just a few years ago.

'I SEE YOUR TRUE COLOURS SHINING THROUGH.'
This female showed at her best when she perched on top of a Hawthorn hedge. In better light, she showed her true colours and I could better appreciate the amount of brown feathers on her crown, nape and ear coverts.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
Another common blue photo. This one was a bit more active than the most and whilst I was watching it it spent a bit of time climbing up and down a few blades of grass

It is very comical to watch these ducks landing 😂
At this particular spot, you will get multiple occasions to get shots like this one even with a shorter lens. This photographs was taken with a 100-400mm lens on a full frame camera. Yes, I will describe in detail where you need to be situated to get such photograph in my upcoming guide to photographing waterfowl in New England region - www.greggard.com/location-guides/common-eiders-new-englan...
Thank you in advance for kind comments!

This image shows the long toes of Common Gallinule. This individual was the first of its species that I saw in Canada. That was in April, 2024, at Cranberry Lake in the Woodlawn neighbourhood of the city of Dartmouth, Halifax County. (I lived in various places in Nova Scotia over the years, but mostly before I really got into birding in the mid-1980s, and I never saw anything like this back then.)
The Common Tern drinks on the wing, dipping its bill in the water with its wings held up. They can drink saltwater or freshwater—like many seabirds, they have nasal glands that excrete excess salt.
The common moorhen (Gallinula chloropus), also known as the Common Gallinules, waterhen or swamp chicken, is a bird species in the rail family (Rallidae).
The common moorhen are medium-sized marsh birds with long legs and toes. In profile, note the small head, thin neck, and small, thin bill. Swimming birds frequently hold their wings up, such that the wingtips stick up on the back. They are mostly charcoal gray birds with a white stripe down their sides and white outer tail feathers. Adults have a bright red shield on their forehead and a red bill tipped in yellow. Immature birds look similar to adults, but lack the red shield and bill.
This beautiful common Moorhen was captured busy feeding at the Hyena Dam, during a photography safari on an early morning game drive in Nairobi National Park, Kenya.
Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

The Common Duiker is usually seen at dawn and dusk in open scrub country.
