Eurasian jay (Garrulus glandarius) inhabits mixed forests across Eurasia and North Africa. Known for its it caches of acorns for ‘planning’ for winter & mimics other animals & plays a key role in oak forest regeneration by dispersing seeds. #birds #nature #ecology #wildlife #biology #birdsofmastodon

Q is for Quadruped

A very rare example of a 4 legged Med Gull...

Ichthyaetus melanocephalus
Mediterranean Gull

At first glance, a very rare example of a small 4 legged Gull preening itself on a rock in the middle of a lake. Upon closer examination it is actually 2 birds preening and the nearest bird has its head tucked away out of sight and its body lines up almost perfectly with the 2nd gull giving the impression it is a single gull with 4 legs.

Blackbirds are great mimics. Just caught one doing a crazy bee impression over our chimney pots

A blackbird captured in flight, head-on, body, face and bright orange beak crisp, but wings outstretched and blurred by rapid motion, directly above a chimney pot. Sloping slate roof in distance as background

️ Ravens

I clearly have a soft spot for ravens and stars. I think it just fits!

Starry Raven Pocket Pal and Celestial Raven Mini prints are available in my website! https://evanskyarts.com/en

A little handmade felt plushie photographed on a black and wooden background, surrounded with decorative plants, and felt stars.
The plushie is of a black raven with dark blue wings, tail and feet. It is looking up with a white embroidered eye, and a soft pink blush. Three stars and a crescent moon are embroidered on its wing.

Digital illustration: a purple raven floating in space and surrounded with bright stars. It is keeping the biggest one safe between its wings, its body curled up around it. A sense of warmth and safety radiating from the scene.

Osprey (Pandion haliaetus, Fischadler, rybołów).

Side view of an osprey flying in a blue sky. Only one wing is visible. The bird has bird rings on its feet, one of which has a clearly visible code.

Morning sweet Friendlings

Had quite the photoshoot with the heron I met along the canal yesterday. Enough to post about them for all the coming week (don't worry, I'll spare you ). But here is just one more shot, to show you how very pretty they were from tip to toe

Time for coffee

A young heron tip toeing forwards along the grassy bank by a stretch of canal, in the dappled sunlight cast by the light tree canopy above

Ein Stieglitz (Carduelis carduelis) oder auch Distelfink, turnt in den mit Flechten bewachsenen Zweigen eines Baums. Der Betrachter sieht ihn von der Seite.
Der Stieglitz ist von schlanker Gestalt mit kurzem Hals und dünnen Füßen. Kennzeichnend sind eine kräftig schwarz-rote Gesichtsmaske, ein weißer Kopf mit weißen Halsseiten und abgesetzt ein schwarzer Nacken und Oberkopf. Die Flügel weisen eine deutlich abgesetzte, breite, leuchtend gelbe Binde auf. Sie sind bei der Nominatform überwiegend schwarz. Der Rücken ist hellbraun, der Bürzel weiß. Der am Ende schwach gegabelte Schwanz ist schwarz mit weißen Flecken im Spitzendrittel. Die Unterseite ist bräunlich an Brust und Flanken. Der elfenbeinfarbene Schnabel ist lang und spitz. In der Brutzeit ist er reinweiß, ansonsten befindet sich eine schwarze Markierung an der Spitze. Stieglitze haben eine Körperlänge von etwa 12 bis 13 Zentimetern.

Started learning to know birds by hearing their voices. that’s so cool and somehow this time it works much better for me than during my studies years ago.
