Hi @dieworkwear.bsky.social , any advice on how to style a pigeon vest without looking like I’m about to invade an European country?

Baby White Storks are almost ready to leave the nest, but they're far from alone. Look closely and you'll spot European Starlings, House Sparrows and even a Common Kestrel sharing this busy little ecosystem. Can you spot them all? 👀 📍 Cáceres, Spain 🪶 #Birds 📷 #Photography

Two juvenile White Storks stand calling from a large stick nest built on top of a concrete pillar in open farmland. Several smaller birds are perched around the nest, including European Starlings, House Sparrows and a Common Kestrel resting near the base of the nest. The challenge is to spot them all against the tangle of branches.

Why the long face (and legs and neck)? The answer is: to maximize aerodynamic efficiency, maintain physical balance, and conserve energy during long flights. Greater Flamingos travel hundreds of kms at speeds of up to 60 km/h, usually at night🦩 📍 Doñana, Spain 🪶 #Birds 📷 #Photography
