A Yellow Warbler was in an apple tree and then flew over to the Northern Larch Tree. In the apple tree there were lots of branches. On the Larch tree it was mostly hidden behind branches but did come out and posed for the camera. 23 Aug 2026 Yarmouth ME

Three Pileated Woodpeckers were in the yard yesterday afternoon making a lot of noise. Of course, there were in trees, but I was able to get some pictures of two females (?), one with a bad hair day or trying out a mohawk look? 18 Aug 26 Yarmouth ME

A large, white great egret stands in shallow water, its long neck curved into an S-shape as it looks forward. The bird features a sharp, bright orange bill and dark legs. Green reeds grow in the foreground, partially obscuring the water's surface, which ripples gently in the background.

Burrowing owl. A small brown bird with scrawny legs snoozing on a post. The background is lavender from the mountains' color in the sun.

I took a lot of photos in 2025. I tried to get it down to a top 10 but that was a bit too difficult so I have a top 25. All taken in the UK or South Africa. #wildlife #wildlifephotgraphy #birds #ukbirds 1) Some birds from Tophill Low
