Fluff is always eager to go outside unless it's "raining cats and dogs" of course! ;-) He doesn't mind a bit of snow now and then, though he is really looking forward to spring just like the rest of us!

Guess who !
Quite an unusual view on Fynn. He was enjoying a relaxed morning on the porch and his head must have been somewhere behind all the fluff. Fynn's coat on his tummy is a challenge when it comes to grooming. It's curly and tends to form lots of knots. Fynn hates it when I try to eliminate them with a comb or a brush. He hates it even more when I use scissors to cut them out although I swear that I have never touched his skin.
Keeping warm, female Wheatear on Hutton Roof, Cumbria.
Birds are warm-blooded, and have to keep a body temperature of about 40°C. Under their contour feathers are tiny soft feathers called down, which lie against the skin and keep the bird warm.
Down is great at keeping in warmth, with people using it to make quilts and duvets.
In cold weather, a bird also fluffs out its contour feathers to trap a layer of warm air.
You've seen this Costas Hummingbird before in a different pose. She came back to me three or four times.
There were a pair of doves that were busy preening themselves as I headed to my car. I took the opportunity to watch, learn, and shoot. One thing I learned is that they are very thorough when preening and if you want to get anything like a normal shot you better be ready and quick for when they come up for air because they return to business very quickly.
