Hi birders, I’ll be back on Wednesday to annoy everyone again. The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #LightAndShadow, any bird capture that has both. The alt is #FallBirds, any Autumn/ Fall bird captures. Sorry can’t respond to comments. 🙏🏼🤗 Goldcrest #birds #photography #ECK
A tiny Goldcrest perched on a slender branch, surrounded by lush green leaves. The bird’s delicate greyish-buff plumage is softly illuminated, with a vivid yellow-orange crown stripe catching the light. Its fine, pointed bill and large dark eye are clearly visible as it looks upward, while its fine feathers glow against the darker, softly blurred woodland background. The natural shadows create a beautiful, intimate woodland portrait.

This is going to infuriate Donald, especially with Fox joining the boycott. Donald as a little boy never got enough attention from his wary, selfish parents. As an adult, he is so thirsty for attention—and watches for himself on television CONSTANTLY—being ignored by media is kryptonite.
