You don’t always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, let go and see what happens

Male Blackbird getting to grips with the hanging feeders. Many species are learning and adapting to different modes of feeding. My Blackbirds never used to do this.....!

A turtle “claw fluttering”, a mating ritual where a male rapidly waves his front claws near the female’s face to attract her.

Who says romance is dead. Instead of butterfly kisses, they should be called turtle kisses. "Girl, my man, he fluttered me so good yesterday, I couldn't see straight for an hour!"

Paris from above: where even the streets form a perfect star just to show off ✨

Eiffel Tower casually photobombing the whole city, Arc de Triomphe living its best geometric life.

Yeah Paris is definitely flexing again 🏙️😏

I can’t believe I was standing just below this hot crow. There was a whole family, calling noisily to each other. A juvenile?

We had a badger party last night (and we saw not one but two pine martens but they are more tricky to video). The lady at the local post office told staff off for buying peanuts to feed badgers and pine martens “because they kill red squirrels” 🙀😿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦡🐾💕#Hedgewatch

Long-tailed Shrike still showing well this morning at Eastleach Martin. Massive thanks again to @GlosterBirder for refinding otherwise Glos birders would be talking about this bird for years to come for all the wrong reasons 🙏🏻 #GlosBirds

Ospreys made an incredible comeback after DDT devastated their populations, but they’re still listed as a threatened species in Illinois. Protecting healthy waterways and habitats helps ensure their recovery continues.

#morninglistening to WilliamWalton's two Symphonies w/the @TheCBSO & KazukiYamada on @DGclassics. A good deal of Holst in Sy.1; always good to hear these works. Clever choice.

This is the 4th clutch of eggs laid by this pair of Tree Sparrows. The first clutch failed so it won't be the mythical 4th brood, but it is a great effort. Their tenacity drives me to keep working to save them. PS they prefer the old, wonky knackered boxes to new pristine boxes!

Anyone know the likely sub-species of the Gloucestershire Long-tailed Shrike? Its tail is very worn and seems to be moulting?

Spangled Kookaburra was a much wanted species for me, not uncommon around Wasur NP

The Magnificent Sunbird (Aethopyga magnifica) has high energy needs and feeds on nectar. It uses a split-tipped tubular tongue to squeeze nectar like a sponge. Females build pouch nests with spiderweb glue. Credit: Tres Marias Farm 04.2026, Gid Ferrer FB
