Canadian, north of Toronto in cottage country. Learning as I go, self taught, hopefully there’s something that catches your eye. All photos are mine except reposts.
Alan's @alan678.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #poise , birds showing poise. The alt is #white ,any bird that has white as part of it’s colouring. I've gone with a wintertime favorite for me for the #white choice. A #DarkEyedJunco questioning me about everything. #EastCoastKin #Bird

Sunday is #Stunday! Share whatever you find stunning with the hashtag, scroll, and enjoy.
This week's Stunday photo is a juvenile #BaldEagle. The photo might not be that stunning but the fact that there 7 eagles in the area was.

Two juvenile #BaldEagles watching the open water at -24°C for #TwosDay.
Not a great photo, one of the many branches confused the auto focus of the #CanonR7 which struggles with the #Sigma150-600 anyway.

The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #perfectperch birds perched on a branch. I went with a Hawk again as I've always liked this photo. If I had my time back, I would have listened and shot RAW in those days. I hate editing but have come to realize sometimes it helps #birds #photo #EastCoastKin #from08
