Peregrine (subad male), Cambs, April 2025 The world's fastest animal, reaching over 200mph in a gravity-assisted dive. This is one of a regular suburban pair - urban peregrines have become commoner in recent decades after pesticides decimated their population mid last century. #Birds #Birding

In July, @puzzlewild.bsky.social and I went to the Pine Marten/Tawny Owl hide at Scottish Photography Hides. We rented. At the end of the night, we saw tawny owls. Three young ones, and one adult keeping watch. The hides are great. We’ll definitely go back! #birdwatching #tawnyowl #scotland

🪶 Rob has chosen #Pairs as #BirdOfTheDay theme; photos with pairs of the same species Alternative is #Green, in the background not the bird Another Twofer; a pair of young wrens against a green background. #birdphotography #ECK #birds #birdsofbluesky #naturephotography #ColorADay #GreenSat
A pair of fledgling wrens perched on branches in the forest. The birds are either side of the centre of the shot, both facing the camera but turned slightly towards the left so that their left sides are showing. 
Both birds are quite round in shape with their tails standing up behind them. They have slender, yellow beaks with a large mouth gape. They are brown, darker on the back than on the underparts. They have  white stripe above the eyebrow and the wings and tail have delicate barring. 
The one on the right is perched on the end of a small, cut branch while the one on the right is straddling two branches, one of which continues up between the birds in the foreground. Another couple of branches can be seen behind the bird in the right. 
The background is an out of focus green from the forest vegetation
