Joining in on the #PortfolioDay trend, my name is Ben, but you can also call me Proteros.

I'm a photographer from Sydney who focuses mainly on flowers and birds, though I sometimes do other animals and landscapes. Here's just a few of my favourite bird pics from last year that I haven't yet shared:

Im not on here to do this I'm on here to have fun because the same people invading my state turned a fun website into a CSAM generator. Everything sucks. I sound glib. I'm just really fucking angry and I don't have an outlet for that anger. Here's a Splendid Fairywren

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by @alan678.bsky.social is #FoodFinds & here's a male Superb Fairywren (Malurus cyaneus) wrestling an earthworm nearly as large as it. #Canberra #Australia #birds #BirdPhotography #NaturePhotography #EastCoastKin

Peacock Fairywren....
not the formal name of a specific species but a descriptive, informal name sometimes used for the Superb Fairy due to the male's striking blue breeding plumage.

A small bird with a long blue and white tail that is held cocked.

Superb Fairy Wrens keep in touch with chatty calls. Fairy Wren mums actually teach chicks a password through the eggshell before they hatch, so the babies know exactly how to beg for food from day one.

And another fairywren for Wrensday Wednesday.
This one is a purple-backed fairywren at my friend's dam in the Flinders Ranges.

I've just been reminded that it's the last Wednesday of 2025.
So here's a white-winged fairywren (with attitude) for the last Wrensday Wednesday 🙂
