Diving for fish in Holyrood.

Common Darter (Sympetrum striolatum) seen at Park Lime Pits, near Walsall, England on the 30.7.20

I was so excited to see this Loon because I haven't seen one for a very long time. Taken on a short trip to Fairmont, British Columbia.

 

Many thanks for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Rarely have I seen the female Common Yellowthroat so clearly out in the open, it was not for long.

Common Starling / sturnus vulgaris. Northumberland. 18/06/24.

 

'STRAND LINE SCAVENGER.'

 

This Starling had an easy time finding food along the strand line of a Northumbrian beach. Judging by its dull coloured beak, I think it was an older, non-breeding bird.

 

BEST VIEWED LARGE.

I've spent a lot of spare time photographing butterflies this summer as its been an amazing year for them and I waited along time for these shots.... Common blue covered in dew. This one had actually cleaned some of the droplets away from its eyes and surrounding area.

Common Greenfinch

≠==================≠

I was introducing myself to a Black-shouldered Kite, when a Greenfinch came in for look.

Satisfied I was not able to talk finch, it quickly sped off.

First trip of 2022 was to WWT Slimbridge on 5th Jan. Weather was fine and there was plenty of Bird activity.

It was also really great to catch up with fellow photographers some of who i hadn’t seen for 2+ years or more. I also met some new photographers. It really was a good start to the year.

 

A male Common Pochard flying low over the waters of the outer fields.

 

The Common Pochard is a medium-sized diving duck.

 

In winter and spring, male Pochards are very distinctive. They have a bright reddish-brown head, a black breast and tail and a pale grey body.

After a very long time searching my local spot I finally managed to get a snap of the elusive and stunning female common blue.

Finally caught up to the Common Yellowthroat on one of my outdoor ventures. I found the female easier to photograph as she wasn't moving around so much. The male, on the other hand, just couldn't sit still.

Having fun getting up close with the MPE-65 to the many wee beasties at Ivinghoe Beacon last week.

 

As always this is single frame of a live creature shot in the wild.

Spent the morning searching storm drains with my youngest. It was fantastic to see his excited face when we fished them out.

The second generation of the smaller butterflies is starting to emerge a Summer Leys and you don't get much fresher than this individual. This hopefully means plenty of macro photo opportunities for the next month or so :)

A common waxbill in amongst the vines of Spier vineyard near Stellenbosch. These birds are native to South Africa, but have been introduced to parts of Europe. Saw a small flock today on the banks of the Ria Formosa near Faro, but didn't manage to get a shot off.

 

I love the bandit mask worn by these birds.
