La real es la más poderosa de nuestras águilas y una de las aves de presa más extendidas a escala mundial.
En España está extendida únicamente por la Península, donde ocupa la mayor parte de las áreas montañosas o de relieve quebrado y montuoso.
Es una rapaz esencialmente rupícola, que instala casi siempre sus nidos en cantiles rocosos, aunque en ocasiones también lo hace en árboles. Su dieta es muy variada, e incluye una gran variedad de mamíferos, aves e incluso reptiles, y también carroña.

We were very lucky to spot this black rhino early in the morning in this part of Masai Mara. The guides mentioned that this is not their usual territory. Apparently there is only about 54 of them in Masai Mara and it is an endangered species.
The black rhino is the rarer and smaller of Africa’s two rhino species. We distinguish it from the larger white rhino by its shape, diet and temperament. It is no more ‘black’, however, than its relative is white. Both species acquire their colour from the mud in which they wallow, so vary from brown to grey.
The main distinguishing feature is the shape of the upper lip. The Black Rhino has a pointy tipped upper lip whereas the White Rhino has a squarish upper lip.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites, awards and favs...it is always appreciated.

Tangara labradorides labradorides
(Metallic-green tanager / Tangara verdinegra)
Metallic-green Tanagers inhabit humid montane forests in the Andes in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. They are mostly blue-green in color, although strongly they appear to be blue or green can change, depending upon light conditions.
Their diet consists almost entirely of arthropods and fruits. Metallic-green Tanagers are usually found in pairs or small groups and often join flocks consisting of multiple tanager species.
There are two recognized subspecies of the Metallic-green Tanager (Storer 1970):
-labradorides Boissinneau 1840; type locality Santa-Fé de Bogota [Colombia]
Occurs in western and central Colombia and in western Ecuador (Storer 1970, Hilty and Brown 1986, Ridgely and Greenfield 2001).
-chaupensis Chapman 1925; type locality Chaupe, Cajamarca, Peru
Occurs in southeastern Ecuador and in northern Peru (Storer 1970, Ridgely and Greenfield 2001, Schulenberg et al. 2007).

The robin (Erithacus rubecula) is a species of bird in the flycatcher family (Muscicapidae). It inhabits North Africa, Europe and Asia Minor as well as the Mediterranean islands. Its diet consists mainly of insects, small spiders, worms and snails. Its song begins about an hour before sunrise and can be heard until dusk almost all year round. The species is currently considered to be endangered.
The robin was once again "Bird of the Year" in Germany in 2021 (after 1992).
Because of its often short flight distance, its appearance and its frequency, the robin is a special sympathetic bird. In the legends of Christ, it comforts Jesus at special moments and when he is dying. It is also associated with Christmas as the unofficial national bird of Britain. It played an important role in the discovery and scientific recognition of magnetic sense.
Das Rotkehlchen (Erithacus rubecula) ist eine Vogelart aus der Familie der Fliegenschnäpper (Muscicapidae). Es besiedelt Nordafrika, Europa und Kleinasien sowie die Mittelmeerinseln. Seine Nahrung besteht vor allem aus Insekten, kleinen Spinnen, Würmern und Schnecken. Sein Gesang beginnt etwa eine Stunde vor Sonnenaufgang und ist bis in die Dämmerung fast das ganze Jahr über zu hören. Die Art gilt derzeit als ungefährdet.
Das Rotkehlchen war in Deutschland (nach 1992) 2021 erneut „Vogel des Jahres“.
Wegen seiner oft geringen Fluchtdistanz, seines Erscheinungsbilds und seiner Häufigkeit ist das Rotkehlchen ein besonderer Sympathieträger. In Christuslegenden steht es Jesus in besonderen Momenten und im Sterben tröstend bei. Zudem wird es als inoffizieller Nationalvogel Großbritanniens mit Weihnachten in Verbindung gebracht. Es hat bei der Entdeckung und wissenschaftlichen Anerkennung des Magnetsinns eine wichtige Rolle gespielt.

This species is North Americas' largest and most widespread plover. It is the one member of the "Shorebirds" family that can adapt to a drier habitat so can thrive on gravely or sandy shorelines, edges of creeks or ponds or in open agricultural fields, lawns, golf courses or old abandoned industrial sites.
Being a plover they employ the typical run-and-stop foraging technique. Their diet consists of insects including spiders and grasshoppers, earthworms, snails and crayfish. They are noted to be very proficient swimmers even in fast moving water for a species that appears to favor a dry habitat.
They are also noted for their very loud alarm calls as well as their injured wing act while bobbing up and down in an effort to lure predators away from their nest sites.
This pair of young chicks are two of a litter of four feeding in a barnyard where the recent rains have created puddling for them to play and forage in.
Es un ave diurna, aunque ocasionalmente caza insectos en las noches de luna, o cerca de luz artificial. Se alimenta principalmente de invertebrados terrestres, como arañas, lombrices e insectos. En otoño e invierno, complementa su dieta habitual de invertebrados con bayas y frutas. También come las mezclas de semillas colocadas en alimentadores de pájaros.
California Ground Squirrel (Spermophilus beecheyi)
As far as I can tell, this one left the safety of ground cover to warm in the morning sun.
Emigrant Lake - Jackson County - Oregon - USA
"The California ground squirrel can be found in south central Oregon, western Washington and most parts of California... The majority of the California ground squirrel's diet is made up of plant parts like leaves, stems, flowers, seeds, berries and fruits. Occasionally, it will eat insects and small animals... The California ground squirrel is diurnal, that means it is most active in the daytime. It lives in colonies, but the squirrels tend not to socialize with each other. Several squirrels may share a burrow, but they each will have their own entrance. Burrows are made under a tree, log or rock. The California ground squirrel can climb trees, but it spends most of its time on the ground."

The tide was receding leaving an amazing assembly of worm casts and tiny depressed feeding pits. They are made by lugworms who have U shaped burrows beneath the sand and seabed. They eat microorganisms and organic debris. They are eaten by curlews, oystercatchers and godwits – plus crabs and fish! Some escape and live for several years.
To celebrate Australia Day, January 26th, today's theme is Australian wildlife living around or close to my home.
The koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), sometimes inaccurately called a koala bear, is an arboreal herbivorous marsupial native to Australia. Koalas spend most of every day sleeping because their diet consists of leaves from Eucalyptus trees which are quite toxic.

The Green Honeycreeper (Chlorophanes spiza) is found in the tropical New World from southern Mexico south to Brazil, and on Trinidad. It is the only member of the genus Chlorophanes. The green honeycreeper is 5–5.5 inches (13–14 cm) long and weighs 14 to 23 grams, averaging about 19 grams. It is less heavily dependent on nectar than the other honeycreepers, fruit being its main food (60%), with nectar (20%) and insects (15%) as less important components of its diet. The green honeycreeper is 5–5.5 inches (13–14 cm) long and weighs 14 to 23 grams, averaging about 19 grams. It has a long decurved bill. The male is mainly blue-tinged green with a black head and a mostly bright yellow bill. The apparent color of the male changes from blue-green to green-blue according to the lighting.

The tawny frogmouth (Podargus strigoides) is a medium sized, big-headed, nocturnal bird native to the Australian mainland, including Tasmania, and southern New Guinea.
Tawny Frogmouths are often confused with owls due to their nocturnal habits and similar colouring, but are actually more closely related to the nightjars. Like owls, the leading edges of the primary feathers are fringed to allow for silent flight.
Tawny frogmouths are medium sized, big-headed birds that can measure from 34 to 53 cm long. The plumage is silver-grey to mottled grayish-brown, patterned with white, black and rufous mottles and streaks which provide excellent camouflage while the bird is perched. The eyes are large and yellow and the wide bill is olive-grey to blackish with distinctive tufts of bristles above the bill. There is little to no sexual dimorphism.
The Tawny Frogmouth occurs in a variety of habitats, including forests, woodlands, parks and gardens. During the day, they roost on tree branches camouflaged as part of the tree.
The Tawny Frogmouth's diet comprises large nocturnal insects such as moths, as well as spiders, worms, slugs and snails. Small mammals, reptiles, frogs and birds are also eaten. The Tawny Frogmouth pounces upon its prey from a perch.
This picture is taken in Burgers Zoo in Arnhem, the Netherlands.
De Australische uilnachtzwaluw (Podargus strigoides) is een nachtvogel uit de familie van uilnachtzwaluwen.
De breedhoofdige Australische uilnachtzwaluw is met een lengte van 34 à 54 cm redelijk groot. Het onopvallende verenkleed is zilvergrijs tot grijsbruin met een patroon van witte, zwarte en roodbruine vlekken, een ideale camouflage. De grote ogen zijn geel en de brede grijs tot zwarte snavel is omgeven door borstelharen. De geslachten zien er nagenoeg gelijk uit.
Uilnachtzwaluwen worden door hun uiterlijk, (schut)kleuren, gedrag en stille vlucht vaak ten onrechte aangezien voor uilen.
De vogel leeft op het vaste land van Australië, Tasmanië en zuidelijk Nieuw-Guinea. De soort komt voor in beboste streken, maar trekt ook naar parken en gecultiveerde gebieden.
Overdag slaapt de uilnachtzwaluw rechtop zittend op een tak. De vogel wordt actief in de schemering en gaat dan voedsel zoeken. Hij leeft van allerhande diertjes, als kevers, insecten, slakken, wormen, kikkers, hagedisjes en kleine knaagdieren. De uilnachtzwaluw gaat dit voedsel niet zoeken, maar wacht laag bij de grond zitten tot hij een prooi ziet en slaat dan bij verrassing toe.
Deze opname is gemaakt in de fazanterie van Burgers Zoo.

Part of a flock of about a dozen Bearded Tits collecting grit from the path to help digest their winter seed diet. I could hear all the pinging but was looking at the reed tops rather than the path. Unfortunately not much detail in this shot, but it gives a better idea of the behaviour than my other closer shots.
