The ring necked parakeets of London. This one loves the tree next to my mum’s. It was easy to take these for granted growing up, but they’re so magic. Chattering away and bringing vibrance to the grey. #birds

This lovely moorhen has been around the same area for the last few years. Their purely yellow beak seems to give them courage, as the other regular-beakers usually dash away if they hear or see anyone, whereas this one is quite inquisitive. Always really nice to see them and their smile. #birds

This young #heron had just slipped on the mud, into the water, and then recovered itself like someone who’d tripped over and hoped no one noticed. That is an absolute look of shame 🥰 #birds
