“You guy’s got a thing about beaks?!” asked the #heron of the #BirdOfTheDay team after they went with a beak related theme again: Alt #LongBeak 😉

A barn owl sideways on flying from left to right. One of my favourite shots from my early September break in Norfolk because of the light, background and concentration and beauty of the bird.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by @atlanticbirding.bsky.social is: #Black&White; any shot in black and white. Alt. theme is #Vivid; any bird with bright colours. 🪶❤️

The crow was an easy choice. I’ve gone with a really vivid little bird for the other theme.

Per @robcrank68.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay #BestOfTheMonth my best birds of the month (not best photos here) were about the B’s… (more in Alt)
Barn owls, Barn Swallows, Bitterns and Buzzards
#birds #photography #ECK #ukbirds #wildlife #ukwildlife
I had a great few days in September photographing birds and wildlife in Norfolk especially barn owls. This is a more distant shot of one of the owls in a tree facing an adjacent meadow from where it flew off into the distance but thankfully returned a bit later. I’ve posted a photo of these young barn swallows perched on a lighting wire previously and have more that I haven’t yet processed. It was a pleasure to spend time with them and watch their busy parents feed them repeatedly. Over at my local nature reserve I’ve been lucky to observe and photograph some of the bitterns during September and arguably more than ever before. This bittern in flight changed reed beds and gave me a chance to grab some photos as it flew from right to left in front of some trees. I’ve photographed buzzards in Norfolk and locally during September and this shot of a buzzard with its wings wide open and from below was above a meadow in Norfolk.
