Totally lucked out the other day when this beautiful female Kingfisher - or is it Queenfisher...🤔? - landed right in front of me. They're such gorgeous #birds, aren't they? #nature #naturephotography #eck #photography #kingfisher #BirdsSeenIn2026 🇩🇪

☝️ Alan set the theme for today's #BirdOfTheDay as #Coastal&River: any coastal or river #birds These two quarreling Common Sandpipers ⬇️ from the other day fit the bill perfectly (no pun intended...) - their name in 🇩🇪 translates as "river bank walker" 🤓 #naturephotography #BirdsSeenIn2026 #nature

Rob says today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Iridescence. I can't think of a more suitable subject than the Superb Starling ✨ ⬇️ 😍 Seen in Nairobi, Kenya in May #BirdsSeenIn2026 🇰🇪 #NaturePhotography #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birds #birdphotography #birdwatching #ECK

😵‍💫 Lost in translation: names of #birds across different languages can be kinda confusing... 🤪 The Mediterranean Gull (📸⬇️ from earlier today) in 🇩🇪 is "Black-headed Gull", whereas the Black-headed Gull is "Laughing Gull" and the Yellow-legged Gull is "Mediterranean Gull"... #BirdsSeenIn2026 #nature

🤗 For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #FabulousWaders chosen by @helenbennett.bsky.social I cannot help but to go with one of "my" four Little Ringed Plover chicks I've been hanging out with these last few days. Such adorable #shorebirds 🐥😍 #birds #photography #eck #waders #nature #naturephotography

I find it difficult to put into words what it is that's so fascinating about #birdwatching & #birdphotography. Luckily, pictures say more than a thousand words... So here's one - of a juvenile Little Ringed Plover I took yesterday. It was real close. #birds #nature #photography #naturephotography

😍 I totally lucked out this morning hanging out with the Plover chicks when, all of a sudden, a Kingfisher perched on one of the nearby rocks. It always pays to be in position before the #birds get there. Right place right time 🍀 #BirdsSeenIn2026 🇩🇪 #nature #naturephotography #photography

So I went back to hang out with the Plover chicks... 😍 Am I to blame...? 😇 🧐 If you zoom in closely, you'll see what the little one's focused on: an unfortunate little bug that ended up as its snack... 🦟 Advance for #WaderWednesday #cute #birds #nature #photography #naturephotography

Whoever said July's typically a slow month for #birding didn't reckon with the Plover chicks that just hatched in my local patch. Expect another picture or two of these cute little fellas in the coming days... 😍 #birds #birdwatching #birdphotography #SuperSeabirdSunday #waders #shorebirds #cuteness

Couldn't believe my luck this morning when I ran into a family of Little Ringed Plovers: here's one of the kids ⬇️🐥😍 They're #Migratory #birds & this one's a #ScreenFiller; excellent for #BirdOfTheDay. Plus they're tiny & a perfect #SmallBirdSaturday fit. 🙌 #photography #naturephotography #nature

Did u know #Crows are #Songbirds? They are! With today's #BirdOfTheDay alt theme #Passerine, it's their moment to shine ✨😍 Here's a Pied Crow bullying an Osprey (same poor bird. as in the earlier shot being harassed by a Kite...). Since Ospreys are #Raptors, it's a #BOTD double bill. #birds #eck

The early bird catches the worm 🪱🐦 Like this Little Ringed Plover I saw yesterday, my choice for the #YourChoice theme of today's #BirdOfTheDay 😀 You may need to zoom in to actually see the worm, it's so tiny 🔬🧐 #eck #birds #photography #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #artshare #birding
