Ruby-throated Hummingbird, a Blue Grosbeak (I think), some flowers, and an Eastern Bluebird #birds #hike #photography #fujifilm #wildlife

A Ruby-throated Hummingbird hovers next to a flower drinking. Other flower buds are around and grass is growing in the foreground and background.

A female or immature male Blue Grosbeak sitting on a branch. It is shade of brown. Green leaves and pine needs can be seen blurred out in the background.

A White-throated Sparrow, Cedar Waxwings, and some interesting trees. #birds #sparrow #waxwing #photography #fujifilm #birding

A piece of old farm equipment leaning against a tree with an interesting circular feature coming out of the side. The tree has some moss growing on it. Other trees are in the background as well as vines and dead grass.

Cedar Waxwings sitting together in the top of a tree. The tree has lost all its leaves in the winter but fruit/nuts hang from the branches. The sky is clear.

A detail of a fallen tree that has visible patterns of swirls and lines as it decays in the forest. Moss grows on top and a vine lays over the trunk.

I found a good deal on a Fuji XF 1.4 teleconverter on eBay. I only got to take it out for a quick 45 minute hike but it was productive! So far I'm liking it. #birds #heron #cardinal #beltedkingfisher #fuji #photogarphy

Detail of the sunset over a field hitting the dried out yellow stalk of a plant with little white flowers.

A heron standing in the water and its reflection beneath it. The background shows dirt and fallen leaves.

A delightfully plump cardinal sitting in a mix of branches. Some green leaves are around it but otherwise the tree is bare.

A warm-toned hike We went hiking recently and I wasn't seeing any birds so I swapped to my vintage Canon FD 50/1.4. I always love the dreamy look this lens brings to everything. #fujifilm #canonfd #fall #forest #woods #leaves #vintagelens #photography

A picture through trees in the forest of a small structure made of sticks off of a hiking trail. The season is fall with lots of warm tones and yellow leaves.

A moss covered log sticking out of leaves and dead grass.

A small creek with leaves floating on the water and trees in the background and in the reflection on the water.

The Goose and the Common I first heard this poem on an episode of the podcast Scene on Radio and it resonated with me. It seems just as relevant now as when it was written about the enclosures in England. #goose #geese #poetry #folk #rhyme #illuminated #manuscript #digital #painting

The poem "The Goose and the Common" made into a digital painting in the style of an illuminated manuscript by Charles Cloninger. The poem sits in the center of the page surrounded by illustrations of geese, flowers, berries, and other various plants and ornate shapes.

Summer Tanager We had a tanager as a frequent visitor to our yard this summer. Always a joy to see that pop of red in the trees. #birds #photography #fujifilm #tanager #red

Love this shot of water droplets caught in the plumage of a Blackbird on a particularly dreich day here in south Wales. More such days to come this autumn I suspect. #birds #UKWildlife #photography #birdPhotography #birdsoftheworld #wildlifePhotography #birds #nature #wildlife

Just playing in the backyard again with my Nikon Zf, shooting at wide open aperture on a 135mm Viltrox f1.8, at 1/1000 sec., auto ISO. #photography #blackandwhite #b&wphotography #monochrome #shallowdof #bokeh #abstract #design #nature #photographersofBluesky #Friday

Black-and-white photograph of intertwined leaves and slender stems against a softly blurred, luminous background. The foreground shows sharply defined five-pointed leaves, while the background fades into circular light patterns and gentle tones of gray.

Hummingbirds. My favorite hummingbird capture from earlier this summer. They sat together for a while, taking a break from fighting over the feeder. #birds #photography #fujifilm #hummingbird

Two hummingbirds. The one of the left is sitting on a branch with its wings open and the one on the right has just flown off the branch, caught in mid flight, its wings a blur.

Old #photo from my time in Agusta GA walking through the #swamp trails. I had edited this before, but I was new to infrared and have come to hate how bad it looks now. #photography #infrared #nature #landscape #surreal (っ◔◡◔)っ 🧡 ʀᴇᴘᴏꜱᴛꜱ ᴀᴘᴘʀᴇᴄɪᴀᴛᴇᴅ 🧡

A small dock reaches out partially over swampy wetlands in Agusta GA. The sky is a faint bluish gray with the large amount of foliage a vibrant bright pink.

It's Minnesota State Fair time! It's time for Minnesotan folk art! Here, for example, is Saturn Devouring His Corn, in the seed art category!

Absolutely. Some strong peepers on that one.

We were walking and heard a new call. The Merlin app told us it was a Cooper's hawk, then we spotted it. I studied pictures of different hawks online and I think that is right, but I'm not 100%. I would appreciate any advice! #birds #hawk #photography #wildlife #nature

just realized I only have 4 mediums of my sound pattern tank design left! at the rate things are going, I expect to be sold out of a few different sizes of this by this time next month. shop's here if you're interested: inkloose.storenvy.com

A photo of someone wearing a black tank with a white screenprinted design of cicadas sitting on a magnolia branch. The focus of the design is on a big open magnolia blossom, and there are shapes and lines arranged on a grid that aim to create the impression of abstracted sound.

We moved earlier this year and I've had a hard time finding the time to bird or make art since then. I also haven't logged into socials for a long time to post or look at what great things y'all are creating. I'm going to make a better effort going forward. I've missed it!

Brown-Headed Nuthatch I love when birds are perfectly framed by branches. I haven't had time to bird, take photos, or draw anything for about a month. I hope to have some more time soon! #birds #nuthatch #blackandwhite #photography #silhouette
