Dominic Couzens @dominiccouzens.bsky.social · 12/04/2025I recently wrote an article on Firecrests, so it was a particular delight in the New Forest this morning to watch one collecting a huge feather for its nest, going right down to the ground to pick it up. Also a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker and some Crossbills! # 0140

Dominic Couzens @dominiccouzens.bsky.social · 24/01/2025RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch - a fact for you. Did you know that the amount of black on a male House Sparrow's chest is a reliable indicator of its ability to fight rivals? The larger the area of black, the better the warrior. #naturewriting #biggardenbirdwatch 0133

Dominic Couzens @dominiccouzens.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Any ideas, entomologists? It looks like a caterpillar and it was photographed in lowland forest in Panama in early December. @georgemcgavin.bsky.social? #entomology 2143

Dominic Couzens @dominiccouzens.bsky.social · 21/11/2024On my recent trip to Borneo, one of the mammals I most wanted to see was the wonderful, pot-bellied, big-nosed Proboscis Monkey. I saw them in both Brunei (when one crossed the road in front of the car) and in Sabah. They are still fairly common. 050
