Copulation or "The act of mating in birds can be described as a cloacal kiss, and to do this, male and female birds have to rub their cloacas together for fertilization to occur...", from https://seabirdsanctuary.org I will be back in a week or two.- jbpixels

Common firecrest
Looking up. Yesterdays upload of a firecrest showed this bird on top of a twig, similar to the one on its right side. Now can you imagine, how rare/difficult it is, to capture it on top of one of those tiny twigs. It was a day with three fcs, foraging in the vegetation next to me.- jbpixels

SF - Different decorating ideas 🤣
One Great tit (one of a pair) brought in nesting material and one nutty (one of a pair) threw it out. The Great tits were not amused. Their dispute continued today but they were afraid of the nuthatch beaks. Please let me know if it does not meet the gallery guidelines.- jbpixels

Male bullfinch
in beautiful light. Yesterday, did I see three times a common snipe/a great snipe in flight here in Munich within two hours at different places at the Waldfriedhof cemetery. Not sure about the ID. Common snipe is more likely but I believe the bills I saw were shorter. No clue but waders on...- jbpixels

SF - Caged bird
Clever tit. 🤣🤣 Netted fat balls were on offer. Bird food is expensive these days. Another good thing is that you can tie them at the feeder. Jays are clever and strong.- jbpixels

Brambling
I recently read a report that it is difficult for wildlife photographers in the Camargue or in the Grenoble area to spot bramblings. If you live there, please do not become desperate. You have already access to incredibly beautiful species. 😁😉👍Sorry b....- jbpixels
