A sweet little Eastern Spinebill that came remarkably close to me at Mt Tomah on Friday.

Photograph of a small honeyeater looking at the viewer, surrounded by grevillea leaves. The bird is black, orange, and white, with strikingly red eyes and a long, curved black beak. The camera is focused on its face, with most of the rest of the scene in soft focus due to the subject's proximity to the lens.

The only thing better than one Böhm’s Bee-eater, is two of these beautiful birds!

📍Mbuyuni Farm Retreat, Morogoro, Tanzania.

#Tanzania #Birds #NaturePhotography 🪶
Slim green bee-eater with an orange throat and crown, a black tip to the tail, and elongated black tail streamers. Found very locally in moist woodland and forest edge, usually near rivers and streams. Typically in pairs or small groups. The call is an up-and-down series of high-pitched whistles.

A small Kentish Plover in the foreground, definitely not overshadowed by the Flamingo, figuratively speaking! #Stunday #bnw

Medium-size (like similar to an American robin ... that size) bird with gray/brown feathers.

For those who wonder which is the group of animals that have experienced a bigger and most dramatic decline must be something similar to what we see today in the scavengers of the old world group.

Happy International Vulture Awareness Day! Vultures make our world safer for humans & other animals by dining on carrion & removing their pathogens from the environment. 🪶
Turkey Vulture perched atop a snag. A red, wrinkly face, fluffy black feathers around the "collar" and otherwise having fluffy dark brown feathers. The subject is 3/4 facing the camera, with head turned to look at the viewer.

A very tight image of a light brown deer's face as she nibbles on some short grass. Her big dark eyes are staring directly at the camera.

I call this the good, the bad and the ugly, although none of them are actually ugly! They are just showing their normal goofy expressions.

TGIF, good weekend all!

#FlamingoFriday #birds #ElHondo
Three flamingos, all showing head and necks to some degree. The closest on is looking towards the viewer, the one on the right is in profile & is looking left, towards the third flamingo. The one on the left is also in profile & we see its body and it's looking right. All showing the special pink beaks, black tipped. The background is water and reeds out of focus.

#Pied #Barbet went to bed already. Had a lovely surprise when I saw its partner flying in as well.

A bird seen peeping out of its hole in a fence pole. Black strong bill, red forehead, yellow above the eyes, black around the eyes, and white underneath that.

A pair of sleeping Greater Flamingos at #ElHondo.
It didn't quite work out the way I had it in my mind but the reflection was fun anyway. #birds
a black & white image showing two flamingos with their backs to the viewer. Both are standing in shallow water on one leg and the reflection gives the impression of extremely long legs. White spots on the water is insects and feathers.

A veces con las tormentas perdemos la perspectiva del tamaño, así que decidí colocar una pequeña finca blanca para daros una información más precisa de cómo de grandes son estos bichos.

For #WaderWednesday another Collared Pratincole as it sweeps through the wetlands, gulping down bugs. They must have left us on migration, as I haven't heard or seen them for a week.
#birds #ElHondo
A bird that is brown on its back and top of the wings, flies above the water in a wetland. The background is green reeds out of focus. It has a thin black collar that runs from eye to eye, below the chin, thus the name. The base of its short bill is red and its belly is white (unseen). We are looking at the bird from the side and above it.

Although the wind was screaming in my ears it was a scene of serenity & breathtaking majesty as the Cuernos del Paine lit up in magnificent light. Light I had not witnessed in 5 years of exploring Patagonia.
