Just a guy with a D810 and a 70-300mm
I have no interest in politics.
Urban wildlife photography is my thing. I do parks around Toronto

Our biggest buck made an appearance today and his limp was noticeably better. Still limps downhill, but was moving much better on flat land.

A snowstorm does not stop this kingfisher from fishing at Roger’s Grove Nature Area in Longmont, Colorado.

A duck #scape with the gang —
I see Northern Shovelers, Northern Pintails and Green-winged Teals. Did I miss anybody?

A Northern Pintail drake flaps his wings at the edge of a calm bit of water where snoozing ducks of several varieties are resting. There are reflections in the foreground water and marsh grasses in the background.

Wild Scarlet Macaw

Sarapiqui, Costa Rica

We have a huge beach almond tree that macaws love. Mainly the Great Green, but also the Scarlet stop by for the almonds. This one stayed around for a bit. #macaw #scarletmacaw #cheeky #birds #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #costarica

Today I experimented with various camera settings during the shoot. In the end, less than 0.5% of the shots were usable. This is one of those rare survivors 😅 🪶
本日は意を決して実験的撮影をして来ました。結果は…まだまだ設定を煮詰める余地がありそうです（言葉を濁す🤣）

A close-up photograph of a Great Spotted Woodpecker, showing its head and upper body in sharp detail. The bird has a black cap and a red patch on the back of its head. Its beak is slightly open with a small piece of debris visible. The plumage features beige, black, and white tones. アカゲラの頭部と上半身を鮮明に捉えたクローズアップ写真。黒い頭頂、後頭部の赤い斑が特徴的で、嘴はわずかに開き、微細なゴミが付着している。羽毛はベージュ、黒、白の色調で構成されている。

Today's #FestiveDailyRobin - #HolidayRobin - A singing Robin from Forest Farm Nature Reserve - Cardiff - South Wales 😍 🪶 🦉 #birdingWales #ukbirding #ukwildlife #naturephotography #birdwatching #wildlife #birdphotography #robin #PhotographyIsArt
A robin can be described to someone partially sighted by focusing on its sounds, feel, and a simplified visual outline of its shape and colours. It is a small bird with a distinctive orange-red chest, a soft chirping song, and a round, plump shape. You can touch its soft feathers to give a tactile sense of the bird and its lightness. It has a cheerful and varied song that is often described as a series of liquid, fluting notes, like a sweet, bubbling stream. It also makes sharp "tuk" or "tick" sounds, especially when it's alarmed or calling to other robins. You can hear the soft rustle of its wings as it flies and the light patter of its feet on the ground. A robin's feathers are very soft and light. You could compare the feeling to a fluffy piece of wool or a very soft, downy material. It has a plump, round body with a short tail. Imagine a soft, plump ball with a short, stubby tail attached. Its head is rounded and small. It's about the size of a small fist. The most striking feature is the bright orange-red on its chest, which feels warm and stands out against the other colours. You can imagine a bright, warm spot of colour on the front of its body. The rest of its back and head are a soft, dull greyish-blue or brown, which you could describe as feeling like a soft, warm stone or a wet pebble after a rain shower.

Time for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of birds #LookingAtYou, and the Alternative are birds #OnTheRocks

I've gone with a Chaffinch, Goldfinch, Blue Tit & Reed Bunting looking at me from RSPB Old Moor in November.
