Comte de Chambord a scented rose, with double petals and bright pink flowers, at the garden centre yesterday. I'd already spent too much but I was really tempted by this frilly French charmer. #ColorADay #PinkMon #Roses #Flowers #Bloomscrolling #EastCoastKin #PhotographersOfBluesky

A close-up of a bright pink double rose - Comte de Chambord - with a green background of leaves and a bud.
*Interesting historic connection:
Henri Comte of Chambord was pretender to the French throne from 1844 to 1883. The last surviving descendant of Louis XV he spent most of his life in exile while attempting to restore the monarchy to post-revolutionary France. The rose was named in his honour by a French breeder in 1863. However, there was some controversy as the rose seems identical to an American variety - Madame Boll - and it may have been that the canny French rose breeder merely gave it a new name.

A tiny jewel of the forest.

The Rufous-backed Kingfisher (Ceyx rufidorsa) may be small enough to fit comfortably in the palm of a hand, but its brilliant colors make it impossible to overlook. The glowing rufous back, golden-yellow underparts, and vivid red bill create one of the most striking combinations found among Southeast Asian kingfishers.

Unlike many kingfishers that stay close to open water, this species often hunts quietly in the shaded forest understory, searching for insects, small crustaceans, and other tiny prey among streams and damp vegetation.

Seeing such an intensely colored bird perched so calmly in the forest is a reminder that some of nature’s most spectacular treasures come in the smallest packages.

A small moth with a metallic blue/green colouring on a pink flower.
The females of both genera have very similar, simple antennae (not comb-like). Consequently, definitive identification of the species almost always requires dissection and microscopic examination of the genitalia by an entomologist.

So Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said: Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #SittingDownOnTheJob, birds sitting on the floor. The Alt theme is #Yellow, any birds with Yellow in their plumage. Alt. A little ray of sunlight helps us all. #birds #photography #ECK

A close-up portrait of a willow warbler perched on a slender, gently curving branch, its soft olive-green back, pale yellow flanks, and fluffy grey-white breast glowing in warm sunlight. The tiny songbird gazes upward with a bright dark eye, while its fine orange-brown bill catches the light. A single pink sea aster flower blooms beside it, adding a splash of vibrant colour against a beautifully blurred blue sky and soft green background. The shallow depth of field isolates the delicate bird, highlighting the fine texture of its fresh plumage and creating a peaceful springtime scene.

Good Morning Bluesky Folks! This morning’s post features a beautiful Phlox paniculata Flower that I Captured yesterday while on my daily Walk it was captured on my canon EOS R50! #GardeningFeed🌱 #NaturePhotography #PhotographersOfBluesky #PlantSky #UkGardening #Bloomscrolling #Flowers

This photo shows a close-up, vibrant view of garden phlox (Phlox paniculata) blooming outdoors.
Key Details
Flowers: The central focus is a dense, rounded cluster (truss) of small, light-pink blossoms. Each flower features five distinct petals with a contrasting, rich magenta-pink "eye" or star pattern in the center.
Background & Foliage: Deep green, elongated leaves frame the cluster, and additional phlox flowers are visible out of focus in the background, creating a soft, natural depth of field.
Lighting: Natural daylight highlights the delicate texture of the petals and the deep pink shading around the center of each bloom.

My two favourite warblers that I get to see regularly are Canada and Blackburnian. Here's the latter, showing why they're nicknamed flame throat. #birds #birding #Algoma

A Blackburnian Warbler perched on a small branch of a hemlock tree, sitting fairly vertical, with its head tipped back, looking upwards to the left, a position that really showcases its flaming orange throat and facial pattern.
