    Back at the lagoon, was another Great Egret, this time in the water, not on the mud. Really rather handsome birds, aren't they.

    An oldish Egret and Macaw

    So these are both older digital pieces I've done and I felt like they're nice enough to share :giggle: Thinking of doing a new series with some songbirds I've been seeing on my trips lately, but we'll see how that goes haha

    A pretty close view was got of a Great Egret in that lagoon on Bribie Island too. Didn't manage to see if he caught anything though.

    The Great Egret

    I had watched eagles in this spot the days before this photo was taken but the light was very poor. On this day, the sun came out but the eagles did not. Instead, I was lucky to photograph a great white egret. I would have chosen a different frame but I was just too close :) Egrets are very...

    Breeding birds in Europe which follow national borders

    I recently looked that the maps of the splendid EBBA2 atlas, and distribution of many birds exactly follows national borders. Not necessary borders which follow some geographical barrier. Eagle Owl: present everywhere, practically 100% in Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, but stops at borders of...

    First sighting

    First Great Egret reported at my favorite local patch. See how the water is low, we've been in a drought, so it's thick and soupy, bubbles trailing.

    Kostrzyn river valley Natura 2000 site (Poland), 21.09 (mostly birds of prey)

    Habitat: river, meadows, forest 1. Not a kestrel, jizzwise. The lack of a prominent moustachial stripe (1.3) excludes the hobby and the peregrine. It flew high above the ground and made a few circles, so it was not a merlin. It had a brownish tinge on the upper wing feathers (1.4), so maybe it...
