A handsome mandarin drake seen with his partner at Bowbridge Locks in Stroud last week. This is the same individual that I photographed at Frome Banks nature reserve a few weeks ago.

Hi flickr friends - we have been on the road and finally were able to see our daughter and her fam. (it's been a year & a half) and this is their latest addition - Samson... lots to smile about : )

I look forward to catching up with you ♡

Here is the ringneck drake that was near, but not quite as comfortable as, the hen posted yesterday.

I know I photograph a lot of bluebirds, but who can blame me? They are beautiful birds, and they are in my backyard daily, giving me lots of opportunities to photograph them.

Male Oriole and a handsome lad too.

I love the detailed green on the Grater Scaup that came in close to shore on a nice morning

Now, two and a half years old.

He was a cute baby, see below.

Do you know what Emu The Handsome, Winnie The Poo, John The Baptist and Alfred the Great have in common? They all have the same middle name. Are you not emused?

From the comments: Attila the Hun, Eric the Wise, Eric the Wise Cracker, Dragon the Handsome, Jack the Knife, William the Conqueror, Vlad the Impaler, Dennis the Menace. Seems "THE" is a very common middle name.

Happy New Year everyone! Here is a shot from before the little ponds and pools froze over. A very friendly Green Winged Teal drake on a calmn day.

"I have bigger muscles than you :P" Does anybody have any name ideas for this colt?

You have to be in the right spot, and pelicans will swim by or jump on a stone without a care in the world. Unfortunately all the birds were close to each other, so one can see a cormorant wing, and parts of other pelicans.

Nothing prettier than a Tom Turkey strutting his stuff surrounded with greenery and wild flowers. Females were in the area while this male showed them some great moves.

I think he knew that I was snapping his photo...Thank you very much for viewing my photo ! I truly appreciate any faves, comments, and awards 🐦

I was so excited to finally get a cardinal shot.

Just thought I’d show you how Timmy looks now at 10 months of age. He’s a very sweet, caring and loving dog. Follows me everywhere, and I do mean everywhere ... LOL!

Wishing everyone a happy and peaceful week 🌹😊

He is handsome and he is the alpha male of the boer goats at a local park, the one who rules the roost. This goat is quite a character but very friendly too and he LOVES visitors.

This image of a handsome Mandarin Duck was captured in an urban park somewhere in London. Although this particular duck was free-living, his relative fearlessness probably meant he interacted regularly with humans.

This species of duck is native to Eastern Asia (China, Japan and Russia), where they are now rare, although a large and thriving introduced population can be found in the British Isles and Western Europe, with additional smaller introductions in North America.

The Mandarin Duck is a very rare winter visitor to Hong Kong. Over the last five years of constant searching, I’ve only ever managed to see a single wild pair in Hong Kong.

Thank you for your interest, views, faves, comments and awards ! This image was captured in London, UK 英國倫敦. (Better viewed on a larger screen.)
